Petrol Panic, Pauline’s War Cry and Rupert’s Iran Push | Scam of the Week

by | Mar 29, 2026 | The West Report

As petrol prices bite, the Coalition turns a servo photo op into theatre while Australia backs another disastrous US led war. This week’s Scam of the Week looks at the political spin around the cost of living, the posturing over Iran, Pauline Hanson’s call to back Donald Trump, and why Rupert Murdoch still looms over war propaganda in Australia. #auspol #iran #trump #albanese
