Drive by robbery
What is this government playing at as if they don't have enough problems. Now they are antagonising motorists with rises at the pumps. petrol has reached £1 a litre in places. 6 months ago crude oil was $147 a barrel and we paid a pound a litre now with crude oil at $68 a barrel how can a pound be justified. I suspect its speculators in the city gambling on the price of oil. how are we supposed to come out of recession. if we are spending extra money at the pumps for the same amount of product. this gives us less to spend in the high street.

ReplyDeleteme 0.5% means nothing when your tied in at 5.5%-6.0% or more,so Gordon if you want out of the recession and to still be in a job then order the banks to cancel our fixed rates so we could get onto the new rates,then we could afford to pay at the pumps without complaining.
