We imagine that, like us, you are angry and disappointed by the failure to act on petrol & diesel prices in thisafternoon’s Budget.
The Government has not listened to ourevidence that it could have reduced petrol & diesel tax AND been no worseoff in overall revenue. This is a ‘slap in the face’ to every family andbusiness in Britain.
Our view is that the failure to scrap thefuel duty rise is the ‘Bombshell in the Budget’. It willdo immense damage to families and businesses.
Yes, we are angry and disappointed – but weare not giving up. If today’s failure to act shows anything is shows this– we need more support than ever.

done. diesel is only so much because the powers that be realised that diesel vehicles used less fuel so needed fewer fillups, so hammered more in fuel duty!
 
Something like 68% of what we spend on petrol/diesel is tax. It's a total scam and I for one am happy to sign up.
 
For years the oil revenues have been squandered by succesive UK governments to prop up their ailing policies. Other oil producing nations such as Norway have accrued an oil fund that stands at billions of pounds and they can draw off this fund to improve their economy as and when they need to. Where is our oil fund? We have wasted the oil money on unemployment and a failed benefits system.

As one of the biggest oil producing nations we have the most expensive fuel.

This government needs to do something to promote confidence in this country. Instead of constant cuts and people in the public sector losing their jobs, this country needs investment to promote growth and it needs it now!. Lots of ordinary families are living in near poverty and have no money to spend on every day living expenses and home improvements are a luxury to them. This hardly helps our industry! Constant cuts, people with no money, record fuel and food prices hardly promotes confidence in the economy.

Yet again small businesses are being squeezed dry by yet another hike in fuel costs. As our customers have little to spend, we are not in the position to put our prices up to cover the increased costs we are incurring EVERY day. Sadly I can see lots more small businesses going to the wall.
