Petrol price rises

[Jeffrey Shaw 90]

I think its ridiculous the way prices keep rising

But, as others have already explained, price rises can be due to:

a. the crude oil;

b. UK-based inflation in delivery costs etc; or

c. HMG taxes and duties imposed.

d. Bit of trouble in the region, so lets use that as an excuse to raise the price

Has the duty risen this year?

[Rupert_Baehr 10]

How many pounds have the government printed this year? Money backed by nothing?

 

If you had lots of petrol (and you knew there will always be a market for petrol) Would you want to sell off your petrol for devalued pounds or would you be tempted to ask for a better price?

 

Should the price of petrol be tied to the value of gold?

wow 4pence, for a average sheffield person who fills £20, its less then 70p increase, nothing to moan about, but it helps the country filling the black hole we dug ourselves in
