Fuel up by 15p per litre in 2010.......
Just seen this on the interweb......
Petrol prices 'to increase by 15p over 2010'
Motorists have been warned to expect petrol price rises of 15p a litre this year, as new taxes and increasing market costs are passed on at the pumps.
The increase in VAT that comes into effect on New Year's Day will see prices rise by 2.5p a litre, with further jumps predicted throughout 2010 as the Government attempts to squeeze more revenue from drivers.
By the end of the year Britain's 33 million hard-pressed motorists can expect to be paying 123p for a litre of unleaded, up from the current price of 108p.
The Petrol Retailers' Association, which compiled the predictions based on analysis of tax changes and trends in the fuel market, said that motorists would be facing record petrol prices by the end of the year.
Why am I not surprised that this f***ing government is hitting the motorists yet again.....

We could do what the french do; Protest and stick together.
I know it`s too much to ask of us Brits.
I`m going back to my own little dream world. ( come the revolution )
