'SE QLD has highest prices in the country.'

Have you ever been to a regional area?
Price in Brisbane UL91 $1.90
Price in Mount Isa $2.12

Paid $2.36 in NT 2 weeks ago.

That statement obviously not true.

There's no shortage of competitors, the problem is they work as a cartel to rig the prices.
No need to have State owned service stations, just enforce competition rules.
