Now I don't know how accurate this is but I have a friend who has contacts at a small Oil company and the word is that fuel will go up by another 4p a litre tomorrow, so diesel will soar from the bargain price of 128.9 round here to 132.9.

Now it might be bollocks but I couldnt live with myself if I didnt mention it and it did happen.

Me, I don't care anymore, I am going to start using my push bike.

I do care but am sticking two fingers up to this fuel hike..It cant go on like this.I mean when you here about shell making record profits in the first three months of this year it is annoying..But because of there Greed,they dont realise or are to damn rolling in money to notice,they are destoying the very thing that is making them money..

im just waiting for the its only 4p for goodness sake it only adds to a measley £2.156433224p a tank or what ever scoobynetter to post which no doubt will be along .
the government needs to cut the tax like other countries have but o no browns nu labour won't .
when are the truckers supposed to be stepping up their warning to the government i thought they said 7 days?

JimmyBFC

When all said and done I think the petrol company's make around 4p a litre apparently, its the fvckin government that need to get a grip, does Gordy boy actually think ppl are going to like him for this fiasco??

Its okay our mp's are voting themselves a 15% pay rise this year so they won't feel a thing

DYK

do you think if we all converted to LPG in the next week it would go up in price..I mean it's been years now since lpg was avaliable at fuel stations,but you still hardly see them around..why,because the goverment are making too much from fuel...

It's a shame new diesel engines wont run on fuels derived from vegetable/peanut oil which is exactly what Ruldolph Diesel intended to run his engines on after forseeing future oil shortages.

Do not abuse it, the bloke who maintains our vending machines at work got sacked for filling up a couple of Jerry cans after he filled the works van, so keep your pikey urges to yourself

zip106

I just like to use my own words.....

Petem95

It'd be more of a shock if you said fuel wasn't going up in price!

I expect to see prices up by 2p every other day now.

DYK

two every other day,your lucky..my local shell garage went from 108 to 112.overnight

Shark Man

Well I used my £3 off Shell voucher today


...still cost £65 to fill up with 95RON

SiPie

Does the fuel card pay for your weekly shop at the supermarket? The cost of which is increasing in line with the fuel prices

stilover

So you think it's Shell to blame do you?

Shell, BP etc make very little money from the Forecourt. They make most of their money elsewhere, and in fact UK Fuel prices are some of the cheapest in Europe, if not thee cheapest.

Want someone to blame? Try the Government Taxing your fuel. That's why prices are so high. All the current price rises have noting to do with the Government or oil companies, it's trader's in the city.

The Government could do something to help though. By cutting the VAT or Duty on fuel to bring prices down. Once oil prices slide, then the VAT/Duty could be put back up.

They just choose not to while pulling in an extra £150m+ a week.

Leslie

I do not believe that the oil companies can justify a price rise like that for a litre of fuel and nor can the Gov justify the extra VAT etc that they are making and the windfall tax on the oil suppliers withouts giving a sizeable chunk of it back to the the people of this country!

I Just found V Power for £1-20 a litre which i thought was pretty good value compared to what it usually is

unclebuck

More than a grain of truth in that statement.

I think Nu Labour are out to punish everyone for not supporting them. To 'teach us a lesson'.

Leslie

They have of course been working hard for all those years to destroy this once fine country and all it stood for. How much easier to do that by ruining the economy once and for all and then shoving us off to the Eu with the promise of jobs for the boys!

Les

Dracoro

Yup, right up to the point where you get sacked/redundant as your company can't afford to keep you on the road.

Sonic'

It will pay for the petrol to get to the supermarket for the weekly shop, and the return trip too

I will be on more money, which is more than the current rate of inflation too, so my weekly shop as a percentage will be less than I am currently paying, so quids in for me really

I do think it is quite pointless now everyone moaning about the cost of fuel, no one will do anything of any significance anyway to make the prices come back down

In all honesty Im not that happy about the spiralling costs of fuel, but as an individual I cant do jack about it, except like all the millions of other people we just have to keep putting fuel in our tanks and drive our cars and pay the current going rate
