Broad support for revised New Vehicle Efficiency Standard after car industry wins concessions for large diesel-powered SUVs and utes
Bowing to pressure from Australia’s biggest car-makers and industry lobby groups, the federal government has made crucial concessions with its proposed New Vehicle Efficiency Standard (NVES).

The key concession will see large SUVs held to the same emissions targets as light commercial vehicles (LCVs)."
Surprise, surprise. Every portfolio Bowen has run had turned to crap, including Climate Change and Energy. This is the result of empty headed, tax payer funded politicians with zero experience in the private sector. That sentiment probably extends to public sector bureaucrats with zero private sector experience advising this numb nut. They're taking their advice direct from Schwab himself, likely.

I'd like to think the LNP are better, but these are the same WEF puppets supporting ALP's Digital Identity bill being rammed through Parliament. It's voluntary of course, just like it was voluntary to not get the jab, except you couldn't do anything if you didnt participate in the worlds largest medical experiment.
