Petrol to go up 10p

Petrol to go up 10p

Tonight a friend told me that petrol is to go up 10p.

This is to happen next week or possible the week after.

Apparently the cost of crude is or will be going up.

No chance, not in one go.

There would be protests there i reckon, and quite rightly so.

Of course, if fuel duty was at a sensible level then it might not be so bad.  >:(

 >:( When I came to UK over two years ago, petrol was 85p :'(
But, it's still not bad here-for hour work I have over 5 litres of petrol. In my stupid country, I had  less than 1,5 litre..... >:(

Local Texaco here £1.02 - I fill up at Shell half a mile away 95.9p

If it goes up 10p then Optimax would be £1.12  :o

Get ready for much higher prices..The companies who is in control for middle east petrol (and so dominating the war)  is hungry for money..

Any war or other signs (sure there will be no other option)  are chance for them to increase the prices..

I have an LPG supplier up the raod and you can buy in bulk. You give them £100 and then go and fill up until the money has run out which in my case was every two weeks and they sold you the LPG 5p a litre cheaper :y
