Anyone else notice the price of fuel since the Election?

It was about $1.70/l before the Coalition announced their 12 month excise discount of 25c. Then overnight fuel went up to $2/l.

Now that the Coalition has well-and-truely lost, fuel is back down to $1.60/l.

I think it's just the usual cycle with a bit of low oil barrel price in there.

I think you might be right, especially with school holidays, but oil barrel prices are influenced by politics.
