and students. We can't afford to have the heating on in our house up North, but it turns out beer is a cheaper way to keep warm anyway.

Funny how quick they were to put petrol prices up, yet they are much fucking slower to drop them aren't they?
Why doesn't the government stop them? Anything to do with the massive amount of fucking tax they earn off the back of it?

It's partly because of the price of a barrel of oil that we're in an economic crisis...It all filters down through industry.There should be a cap on massive profits like this...give some to poor people like me, and pensioners like Fornside,Oldstokie,etc.

Government won't do a thing about it, anyone remember about 10 / 15 years ago the government wanted everyone to use diesel cos it was more eco friendly ? its absolute fact that it is cheaper to produce than petrol but now a lot of people use it they have added more tax to it, robbing barstewards.

They should drop the price as quick as a whores drawers when somebody has 2 *£50 notes in their hand |

Bet the government are going to be too scared for a windfall tax or enforcing a price cut though...

If the gov tax it anymore it will just be passed on to the customers.
You have to think that BP get thier money from drilling and refining it as well, so when all the wall street/london traders were buying up all the oil, they were making a killing through that.
I feel sorry for the people who heat their rural homes using kerosene, there is a major shortage and prices are shooting up because of that, theres a problem that BP could solve.
