   A governing body will be a waste of time. Look at electricity and gas prices the eu are paying half what we are while we restore the companies profits that they lost due to incompetent management. These utilities are French owned and we should not be paying extra to cover their mistakes in buying fuel

   You know its a money grab they put the price up to reflect the saving you make having a diesel car. Not having some sort of anti profiteering system in this country is the problem like the useless OFGEM

   Just take us for everything they can get out of us. How about we run a cooperative and cut out the middle man.

    It is a disgusting fact that during these times of artificially induced inflation – it's deliberate !! most suppliers jump on the profiteering bandwagon ! It's no wonder we are called rip off Britain. I don't know about you, but I have been developing a long memory, and the people who have blatantly ripped us off will be remembered. The people of this country are being shafted, and it can only be happening with the complicity of the establishment.

    The issue with high fuel prices is not so much the worldwide price of crude per barrel, but the refining. We now only have 7 refineries in the UK, (in 1973 we had 23 and 7 planned), all now foriegn owned in whole or part. Before the invasion of Ukraine, the charge from these refineries to refine a litre of fuel was 6p per litre or less, today that refining price is close to 30p per litre, a 5x increase. Then you have the fuel duty TAX and the VAT TAX on top of that, and Hey presto!!!

    The "Fuel Price Escalator" was intoduced in 1993 by the Tory John Major government. The policy meant that duty on fuel would rise by 3% above inflation every year until such time that they could abolish "Road Tax" or "Vehicle Excise Duty" without the need to increase the price of fuel to compensate for the loss of revenue from the abolition of said duty. The incoming Blair government of 1997 then reneged on that commitment and we now have high fuel duty, and we've still got VED at ever increasing annual cost to the public.

    The government want to do away with diesel and petrol cars and everyone to go to electric, knowing that most people won’t be able to afford an electric vehicle. Which means there will be less cars on the road and only the rich will be able to drive and the rest will have to walk, push bike or get public transport. All part of their plan to control us.

    We should ask for a public enquiry, and have it raised in parliament, or better still scuff a diesel car Manuel and get the police to report it as a hate incident 🤔

    The question I have which is also important Liam, is that we pay tax on each litre of fuel we buy. but I believe we also have to pay VAT on the final figure as well, or am I incorrect?

    The price of diesel is a total disgrace. The supermarkets are ripping us off. An example. Locally I can buy diesel for as little as £1.59 per litre from a small garage but it’s still £1.72 from Tesco. Why? You can’t tell me they haven’t the buying power. Makes me sick 🤮

    Basket With Holes 😂

    It shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:
    Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.
    Deuteronomy 28:17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.

    The consequence of not following the warnings from upstairs. Inflation. Snake bites. Loan sharks. Ecclesiastes 10:11 Surely the serpent will bite without enchantment; and a babbler is no better. This word bite is a primitive root; to strike with a sting (as a serpent); figuratively to oppress with interest on a loan.

    Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.
    (The seventh day is His rest. The Millennium. We are on our own.)
    Amo 5:19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
    (Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Traducers infestation.)
    Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
    (Not until we start to initiate Revelation 20. Know how to lay hold on the dragon, that old serpent? Learn from Moses in Exodus 4:4. What’s tail? Isaiah 9:15. )

    and the government will do nothing because their mandate is to be bribed and blackmailed with a mission statement to make life for everyone slower, more expensive and less convenient. Prove me wrong.
