2018 is about to pass 1/3. There are 253 days left, and 2019 is coming! You know, 2019 will not be an ordinary year for Australia, because the first half of 2019 is Australia's next general election! Plus, two days ago, Prince Charles was set to succeed to the British throne, Australia's first general election since the change of head of state. And before the election day has been decided, the state and state governments have begun to "fight"!
In an effort to win more votes, and to preserve the state of Victoria as the Labor Party's "stronghold", the Andrew administration today decided to launch a new "government price comparison website" to help all Victorian residents compare electricity and gas prices. And now log in, and each family can receive a $50 allowance!
1. Government online comparison website
In the countdown to the election, the state government launched a high-profile government comparison site,: Victorian Energy Saver., according to news.com.au.
The main function of the site is to compare the prices of energy companies that can be used in the region of Victoria to find "optimal solutions" for them.
For example, if you live in Docklands, you can log on to the website victorianenergysaver.vic.gov.au and switch to https://compare.switchon.vic.gov.au/, by typing the zip code, the current supplier, the daily use of electricity, and so on, to get the best electricity plan for you.

Andrew's administration said the website could help residents save electricity and gas bills effectively, or nearly $330 a year. At the same time, the Andrew administration said many Victorian residents want to change their suppliers, but because of lack of time, limited information sources and so on, they have been unable to do so, and the government has the ability to help them with information integration.

At the same time, the Labour government has promised to sign in its identity information and bank accounts on the site from July 1 to December 31, whether or not it is used to replace its suppliers, and that each household will give $50 in benefits! Of course, it is not unlimited, the Labour government said, each family can only receive a maximum of A $50 in benefits. This is also one of the 50 million elections to be launched by Andrew's government during the election year.
In addition, the Labour government has raised subsidies for poor families who cannot afford their electricity bills, raising the The Utility Relief Grant ceiling for energy bill subsidies by A $150 to A $650.
In short, this benefit is for Victoria residents "tailor-made", not only can greatly save electricity and gas costs, but also can get a welfare! I wonder what the Union and other state governments will do after the high profile of the Labour Party's high-profile good-for-good policy. Come and see with the editor!
