Nationally, retailers have limited control over the price of petrol; 90 per cent of the final price of petrol is the wholesale cost.Over the past six years, unleaded petrol prices in Canberra were on average about 9c per litre higher than in Sydney, and 2.3c per litre higher than the towns surrounding Canberra.
"Canberra service stations typically make larger profits than those in the regional comparison locations, in part due to a higher volume of fuel sold in Canberra and, in recent years, an increase in the net retail margin," senior commissioner Joe Dimasi said in his report. "Petrol retailers in Canberra are typically located off major roads and in local shopping and industrial districts," the commissioner said..And to little surprise to most Canberrans, the commissioner found that at the airport and in Fyshwick, where there were independent outlets in sight of the big retailers, retailers had the lowest prices and smallest profit margins.

NSW Police Force ordered to apologise for 'vilifying' Arabs in counter-terror exerciseA tribunal has found that NSW Police racially vilified Palestinians and Arabs by allowing officers acting as offenders to wear headscarves in a counter-terror training exercise You are f—king kidding me. What half-arsed tribunal was this? The fact that they linked people acting as terrorists wearing headscarves with Arabs says more about the complainants and the tribunal than it does about the police. What a disgrace.

Live: NSW Now: MP calls out hate speech after daughter 'harangued for being Muslim'MORNING BRIEFING: NSW Shadow Education Minister Jihad Dib has called out the normalisation of hate speech. Rob Oakeshott says he'll take Scott Morrison's phone call. It’s normal with local soccer clubs these days with racism just ask ClubPanania they are experts in it! Yet BankstownFA do nothing about it. Haters destroy our society. So 'kids' shit stirring 'kids', that has always been normal and has never been acceptable. Even if you are a clone of such infantile trolls they will confect a difference just to tease you over it, and if you let them affect you then it is you who is rewarding their sociopathy.

NSW MP Jihad Dib says daughter bullied for being Muslim and called 'disgusting'Jihad Dib says the rise in hate speech needs to be addressed after his 15-year-old daughter and another player were targetted with racial taunts during a weekend soccer match. It's taken 15 years to realise that kids say hurtful things, welcome to parenting. Condemn it sure, support your daughter, lodge a formal complaint, but don't go full simpleton and try to extrapolate your daughter's incident as some sinister evil of Australian society, it's not. Its nothing new, been happening for generations. Made me work harder and helped me learn who I wanted and should be friends with. Simple fact of life, winners, losers, bullied, bullys. Get over it, teach your kids the skills to master their life not blame everyone else for whatever happens to them. You particularly will never be free of it while Islam is the terrorist's favourite religion so fix that first.

New penalties announced for drunk, drugged drivers in NSWDrivers in NSW who test positive for alcohol or drugs could now face an automatic licence suspension, but marijuana advocates and a lawyer say the crackdown unfairly targets country cannabis users. Drugged? Nice try. They're not even impaired. Tired reading the same intentional misinformation. It is more likely Politicians & Police doing BigAlcohol's work & competitors are being controlled. The usual harsher penalties approach with the usual assumption that drug detection = impairment with no attempt to prove it.
