[Debs.]

Had an interesting letter from 'Her Majesty`s Revenue'; it would appear that from November the 1st.; Red Diesel will not longer be available.
Legitimate cherry users (Farm, Plant-Equipment, Generators, Boaters/Bargees) will have to buy full price DERV and prove 'appropriate' commercial-only use to be able to claim back the dutiable portion of the cost as a HMC&E rebate.
Easy to prove for a registered company; well-nigh impossible for a boater, smallholder or home plant/generator user!

Needless U.K government/EU tinkering yet again....

Christ!!!!!! Why dont they just stop it!! interfearing useless wasters! That will have huge impacts for the farming population.

[albitz]

that is f^&*!^~ outrageous .kick the little guy (or girl)when they,re down.

[Darth Loo-knee]

Sounds like food will be going up again then  

[albitz]

have they offered a pathetic excuse ,or just -a "peasants must comply with orders" directive ?

[Entwood]

Typical Socialist "we know how to run (ruin ?? ) your lives"  crap

[Growler]

I think these are the flailings of a government in the death throws of their term of office. They don't have a ruddy clue.

"Action to prevent fraud and duty avoidance"

Seems to me that having all that unidentifiable/untraceable and 50% commercially-rebated "White/legal-looking DERV" sloshing around the fuel black-market will open up MORE avenues for crime/fraud.....but, there I go again; using common sense....it`ll never do!

Dont use that common sense Debs!!! Who knows where it will all end   Very sad state to be in TBH

[CaptainZok]

That'll be the diesel dippers out of a job then.
Wonder what gormless scheme they'll dream up to keep that army of fuel duty inspectors busy now then.

I know who that will hit - railway preservation societies - how much is 1000 gallons?

heating oil  

I believe in some parts of the U.K there`s presently a 10 day wait for Kersosene (heating oil) deliveries, the bunker companies are citing: "Supply problems"!!!!

Kerosene is currently priced at 60p/litre (that`s a 100% increase in the last 18 months).....but, wait for it: there`s a 10p/litre surcharge for deliveries under 6000 litres!!!!!!!!

Somebody is making a killing out of the fuel price/tax situation

But with all the criminal activity going on around this fuel it must be the case of the minority spoliling it for the majority!

Now the likes of you Debs suffer from those fools through no fault of your own, and makes farming even harder!

I am sure you will not let this get you down though!
