It really is about about time we had another fuel strike. I can remember when putting £5 in my Dad's Cortina would be a nice round 4 GALLONS  ..... best part of 20 litres  >:(  >:(  >:(

we,re all doomed, unleaded here is between £1.06 - £1.10,
6 months ago it was 96p a litre,

first the gov ripped us off good and proper on fuel tax,
then the oil companies added a bit more for theirselves,
now the petrol stations are jumping on the band-wagon too,

its discusting whats happening and i cant see it getting any better now...

Although the price of crude oil on the world markets has caused the recent increases, the fuel duty and vat still account for about 70p of every litre.They could have reduced the vat portion and kept the prices stable, and continued to receive the same amount of revenue from a litre, but that would help UK industry and the motorist so there's no chance of that.  Vote labour.

Gas is great, but when the Government finally do cotton on the the fact they could put loads of duty on gas then what. :exclamation
i think its time do something now, if every one sent an email or letter to their MP instead of just moaning about it then something may get done, its a nation af whingers not doers, if this were france there would be hell to pay. the price of fuel is bonkers >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(.
