Fue tax rise soon?
Am I right thinking we're due for a tax hike on fuel soon. Seem to remember that Mr Brown didn't increase fuel tax in April and that it was postponed until Sept / Oct time?
Probably why the fuel prices have come down sharply in the last week, ready to go back up again.

If only everyone was willing to walk out of work if prices went above £1.00 / litre . It would cost the economy so much every day the government would be forced to lower fuel tax again.

Vote these clowns out at the first opportunity. Devious, dishonest, scheeming, spin, presentation is everything, say one thing but do another, proven liars and incompetants. Totally out of touch. The only problem is that the alternative is probably just as bad.

If they managed the spending of our money properly and reduced the number of cival servants, they wouldn't need to increase taxes, they could probably reduce them.
Does any one else agree with me?
