Dont need an inquiry,we are being ripped off big time.
Every time people vote for a capitalist party such as the conservatives, that’s basically what your voting for..
Less government intervention, small government,less red tape ect, ect,
BUSINESSES FIRST AND ONLY PRIORITY ARE TO ITS SHAREHOLDERS!!
Can’t really have it both ways, the politicians know that the vast majority of public are too brainwashed to know the difference…
Now they investigate?
They dont need an enquiry its pure corperate greed.
A bit too late
Do yourself a favour, get the Tory nasty party out !
Yet another enquiry that will come to nothing.
As one of Bidens members said, "Liberal order". This is all planned to get people off gas and diesel engines.
Can companies who can have people working from home, even if they don’t like it, allow workers to do so. The rest of us try to avoid driving as much as possible. I haven’t driven since September and will continue to avoid it as much as possible.
All due to Brexit and Tory commercialism pandering to the oil companies.
Just one thing to say go look at truck stops and business fuel stops why are they still down on 1.40 and employees at normal disel pumps are paying 2 ?
Where the hell will this country be in 10 years.. what a total disaster. Politicians should be held to account.
yes !!! wake up !!! the price of a barrel of oil is around $105 at the moment………. the same as it was in 2012 when petrol was £1.50 a litre…………… so why is it £1.90 a litre now ???
Sanctions.
I am as pi**ed off as anyone about fuel prices, but the harsh reality is it is bought and sold on the futures market. Government can reduce tax on fuel in a blink of an eye, but traders in fuel have already determined what they can sell it for today….weeks ago.
No rules were broken, the final verdict. Price is just an illusion, just like money
The government are taking most of the money, they could slash it if they wanted to…..They don't want poor people on the road anymore, they want us standing on the side of the road bowing as they pass.
Who pays for the enquiry? 🤡
oil is cheaper now than it was in 2008
Get the tories out and petrol cost a lot less lol get them out
We don't need any more inquiries. We need action.
Yawn.Once again instead of government being honest and saying they want ICE cars off the road.They priceing people off the road.Wake up sheep.
Never said about in other countries it being cheap. Obviously we are all paying for all them hot tubs that were bought in the pandemic.
We should have live petrol pump rates regulated, we get shafted as UK citizens
I feel sorry for U.K. motorists. Must be the highest fuel prices in the world.
Blatant profiteering nothing more.
What a joke.. in Dubai petrol is 15p a litre
Like I said before the price of oil comes down BUT the prices at the petrol stations ⛽️ don’t come back DOWN always the same BS.
THE REPORT FOUND THE TAX BREAK WAS PASSED ON AT THE PUMP????? REALLY?!?!?! LIES LIES LIES
The govt is turning a blind eye because it’s banking a lot of VAT with the price rises.
Is this a pee take spend loads of money on an enquiry about why fuel producers are greedy ba****
oh come on folks , how else is the u.k. going to fund all the luxuries for the imported replacement population
If we all want to pay less for our fuel there's one way that the prices come down
It's down to us the people who go to petrol stations and that is to stop using our cars for at least a week or until the prices come down , why should we pay more when they pay less
It's time for action from ourselves please think about doing this because unless we all do it the prices won't come down
Pass this on
Also in France it's low because the French people don't take it lying down they do something about it let's all block the petrol stations
