Oh, Mr. Abbott, personal savings from your repeal of the price on carbon overwhelm me

MUNDANE REALITY

My first electricity bill after the 1 July 2014 repeal of the ‘carbon tax’ arrived in August. The one-off savings totalled $6.20 or 1.61% of my power bill.

Of course after that lordly sum was deducted I was still left with a rise in fixed charges of $27.53 which will endure as a cost rise until mid 2016.
