Petrol prices: Another fuel tax rise to hit motorists from July 1

● Harry Baker: Another 3 or 4 cent added on to food as well. Transport etc. Time to get rid of this lot.

● Cory Nelson: Harry Baker tax does wonders and gives us the infrastruc­ture we have today. Do you wanna end having a massive medical bill when you break your leg and have to go to the hospital? If we didn't have fuel tax then we'd probably still be driving everywhere on a dirt roads

● Alan Grant: Harry Baker seen the prices at countdown lately? Things have gone up by dollars.
