Have Our Petrol Prices Dropped?

[Mikey]

Drivers in Toronto have seen prices drop on consecutive days this week, in line with a fall in the price of oil.

Are we seeing that here?.....

Same old story. The price of crude oil goes up and the pumps reflect that increase after about 20 minutes – the price of crude comes down and






















NOTHING










………… the price at the pumps stays the same or at best ‘it will take some weeks before the price is reflected at the pumps’ lying, thieving ****.

Hevn't bought any petrol this week, but was in Florida last week where prices had just gone past $4 per gallon (£2.05) and there was outrage. Makes you realise just how much we're being shafted for in fuel duty.

Not really fair to compare our prices with the country that (irresponsibly) puts one of the lowest amounts of duty on fuel. America doesn't really share the same social policies as the UK either IMO.

You're better off comparing the UK with other European countries. You'll find we're still one of the highest, but by no means the worst. What does annoy me though (as a diesel driver) is the fact that the UK government tax more on consumer disel than they do on petrol. Diesel is cheaper than petrol in most European countries, whereas it's about 10% more expensive here.

Nope, Lizzie Bryce Shell went up this week :grr: but suppose they are still 4 or 5p a litre cheaper than other petrol stations closer to town
