Agree FP. I don't have any problems with any form of fair road user charges to pay for infrastructure. My comment was about her mischievously attacking the fuel companies while she leads a Government that takes the lion's share of fuel costs and continually increase it.
Not so sure a fuel levy will be the go for much longer though with increased use of EVs that pay nothing and needs to change..

Meantime I'm happy personally with my hybrid and how little I pay !! Not very fair though.
