Your last comment said "petrol lobbys don't want this, they want less cars". Your latest comment says "what petrol lobby?" Which is it? You're changing your argument. It feels like a very blatant example of motivated reasoning at best, or deliberate shifting of the goalposts at worst.

If you're going to post conservative anti-bike talking points, at least get your story internally straight first!

    Yes it was a poor choice of words on my part, I was going off what you said, and yes I assumed that by petrol lobbys that you were talking automotive lobby groups, which all my points relate to.. I assumed this because as I said there aren't petrol lobby groups in qld, or at least none that I know of.

    When you doubled down I carrified the difference.

    Do you care to clarrify which petrol lobby groups are influencing this legislation? Or does my point still stand that there aren't any, and your remark about the fact it's thier legislation is 'fake news' fearmongering

    Nobody in their right mind can pretend that there isn't a significant fossil fuel lobby in Australia. You have got to be trolling. Have a good rest of your life, I'm done with your bullshit.
