Senator McDONALD (Queensland—Deputy Leader of the Nationals in the Senate) (14:59): Last week, the resources minister claimed fuel prices were holding steady. That claim has collapsed. Prices have surged to 219.9c a litre, and petrol stations are running dry. This morning, the Minister for Climate Change and Energy warned against panic buying. Minister, isn't this just a government that cannot manage fuel disruption and is now trying to pin the blame on ordinary Australians?
