No, it's some of your colleagues' behaviour that we dismiss as misinformation. The Australian Institute of Petroleum says:

AIP members have sufficient fuel supply to meet our normal customer fuel demand.

It also says:

In these circumstances, … members have had to prioritise supply to their regular customers and cease spot sales. This is a normal response to high demand …

What we can do, if we actually care about this situation, is to continue to communicate, in an effective and clear and transparent way, the truth of the position—2.97 billion litres of diesel; 1.56 billion litres of petrol here in Australia. If everybody continues in a normal way, not spreading out there for the click and not doing the advanced clicks, then that's what's in the national interest. (Time expired)
