1p...
wooop-de-fricking-doo!!!
I can now afford a Mars bar as well as a tank of Fuel....
Any gesture would be empty short of a huge reduction which is pointless and impractical. George cant really do anything, price rises are governed by factors outside his control. Just take it as a gesture and move on I say.But that 1p will be made up by increasing levies on North Sea oil companies. What's to stop them adding it to the pump price. We're no better off really, just an empty gesture to placate idiot voters...
Oh please, do you not think that if it was as easy as reducing duty by said amount they would grasp their opportunity to steal the headlines and appease public frustrations?Yes they could have done something and that would be to reduce the tax on fuel, that would easily have given us 10-15p off a litre..
So you think the fact that we are paying 80p on every liter fuel in tax is acceptible (give or take a couple of pence due to the ever growing fuel prices) and dropping 10p would cause undesirable effect on public spending?
Like what?
The tax on fuel is for the roads which they are obviously not spending it on.
Fuel prices have been going up almost non-stop for the last 6months (or something like that) for us where other countries have lowered their prices, stayed the same or had a small increase.
Our goverment are just a bunch of greedy silver spoon fed twats, with no idea or at least very little what the fuel prices is happening to us.
If they do know they obviusly dont give a ****.
I can't see this web site at work so not 100% sure whats on it but keeps coming up when searching for fuel prices
