'Guess what? I don't trust you': Paul Murray calls Chris Bowen’s bluff on EV savings
Sky News host Paul Murray says he doesn’t trust Energy Minister Chris Bowen’s promise that purchasing an electric car will save Australians money, as a potential SUV and ute tax looms. The Australian Government is set to introduce a New Vehicle Efficiency Standard for cleaner and cheaper-to-run cars, as well as holding a vote in Sydney and Melbourne on whether to tax SUV and ute drivers. “Guess what Chris? I don’t trust you,” Mr Murray said. “I don’t trust the people working for you. “I don’t trust your bosses. “Because you have an option right in front of you today to be able to show that you are willing to save people money. “But what you are trying to do is change the cars that we drive, because it makes you feel better, it makes the lobby groups that demand it feel better.”
