Prime minister urges Australians to consider taking public transport and to conserve fuel for ‘critical industry’ and others

Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese has used a rare address to the nation to attempt to allay public fears over dwindling fuel supplies, vowing to keep petrol prices down by shoring up international supplies and ramping up local production.

In an acknowledgment of the global challenges and “uncertain times” ahead due to the war in the Middle East, the prime minister used a prerecorded video address to outline how Australia was responding to the “economic shocks” that “will be with us for months”.
