    Either a bot wrote this or some dude getting paid a penny per word. It’s such a low quality article. I don’t even know where this happened, what country, etc. No sources listed, random quotes from people I have no way of knowing even exist.

    “Shadow Treasurer Brad Rowswell”

    Is that a joke? Or is there actually a position called shadow treasurer? Because that sounds hilariously evil.

      Of course the AUS government would charge evs a tax per mile, lol

      it was only one state, and the national government was against it, and actually supported the legal challenge.

        And yet other states were ready to introduce their own Road User Charge for evs. They just waited to see what would happen if Victoria introduced it first

      Its an Australian site. It’s not unreasonable to assume that readers know that Victoria is a state. Your ignorance of Australian states, titles and people is your own issue.
