Default Vpower at 131.9p

Suprised to see a big rise on Vpower, price jumping from 127.9 to 131.9 in South London. Wonder how much more the rise will be next year! Who has seen the highest price on Vpower?

Still £1.27 near me up in Aberdeen, was £1.24 couple of weeks ago. Shocking the prices now. To think everyone was protesting 10 years ago when it went to about 90p per ltr I think??

They are trying to price us off the road. This government has the country on it's knees ans I don't see any signs of recovery in the near future.

We'll be sending kids up chimneys again shortly but that might be politically incorrect!

It's time the people of the UK took the French stance and brought the country to a halt. There is no end to the cut backs and increase in the cost of living.

Pass me the knife!

True, but what can anyone do as long as there is demand for it the prices will stay high. The only thing to do is not drive (and that isn't what I bought a scooby for)!!

You can do nothing(new protest can do just worst for people),something can do the oil companies or government(cut taxes and Vat for few months) or simple convert Subaru to LPG(i convert mine and saving are just amazing,i do 10k-20k per year)which cost ££££...

Road blocks and fuel strikes just cause panic buying which the oil companies profit from and a drive slow protest is just a weak show of force

I aint that bothered because the scoob is Sorned and is going up for sale and i dont pay for my diesel Sadly the only way is also the wrong way, plus this country has a huge debt that needs to be repaid and the pumps are a huge income

Why the **** should we pay for the governments ***** up if they can't look after finances then give someone else the job, i'm sure there's an accountant somewhere that actually knows what they're doing. Maybe they should stop letting all the fooking immigrants in to rape us of all our money and take it back home to their flea ridden families living in little **** huts.

This country is going down the p1sser rapidly and there's nothing we can do. I reckon everyone should start nicking the petrol from the forecourts, maybe they'd see what was happening and lower the price somewhat, some money for it is better than no money for it .

What takes the p1ss the most is we (UK and USA) pretty much own all the oil now, that's why our troops are really in iraq and afghanistan it never was for terrorismn that was just a front.

This country has become such a dive since gay boy blair and bum hole brown took over. It dont look like clegg has got any idea either. What chance have we got for any action with ***** like these in power????
