I actually have my name on the petition, but do you really think camping outside Parliament is going to do much good?

Have to say you're not really improving the image of the cause with this thread, either.

When the roads become nice and clear because people can't afford fuel then I'll accept it's too expensive.

But when I'm always having to queue at petrol stations because people can't get enough of it, I'll consider it as cheap as chips.

+1.

Quite apart from the fact that it's still cheaper relative to wages than ten years ago. It's seen a sharp rise 2008-2010, sure, but not exactly unobtainium, is it? How about I share the prices I've paid since March 2011:

132.9 03/2011
131.9
133.9
132.9
130.9
134.9 08/2011
131.9
130.9
130.9 10/2011
134.9
129.9
131.9
132.9 02/2012

Hmmm.

I don't see on their website where FairFuelUK say why they think the current pricing is "unfair". confused

Maybe they should be called PayLessTaxOnFuelUK.

Look, fuel's expensive. There is nothing we can do about it. The gubberment got elected, and it's all tax tax tax.

A few people in donkey jackets in Parliament Square will make no difference whatsoever.

Normal 95ron round where I live is 132-135p. 99ron is anything from 136-142 depending on which petrol station you use.
