JR Bruning analyses her article, “An Election Agreement that has locked in a Road User Charging Revolution” and asks why this was necessary in the first place.

Crucially, how it will affect every one of us?

Investigative writer JR Bruning (aka Jodie Bruning) covers a range of topics; sociological studies of ignorance, "non-knowledge” and the production of science and technology.

Her primary research focus is on the relationship between governance, policy, and the production of scientific and technical knowledge for public good.

We cover “New York’s Deal with the Devil”. And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
