There is an article in today’s Courier Mail HERE (www.couriermail.com.au) with figures showing what's upsetting them.

So, in Queensland it is costing the average household $158 a month for power now.

Don’t know what they’re moaning about. I’d guess it would cost the average household the best part of another $100 in NZ.

And of course their wages are higher so its easier to pay a smaller amount.

Higher wages certainly helps in the end but even if they were the same, take a look at their petrol prices. HERE (www.racq.com.au)

For those who don't know the RACQ is much the same as our AA.

Oh, check the LPG price. ;)
