A story on the sky news web site

its not like any one will do anything about it!

[Welshy_Pete]

This wont help the recession and get people spending or going out. Also it will close bussinesses down they cant keep putting charges on top of there contracts or bills. Expect more job losses over this its spiraling out of control.

This effects everybody from big lorrys delivery to van driver delivery. Then you have car owners going to work as well.

Want people in work and want to keep jobs. Keep putting the price up its becoming a luxary just to drive a car. Job losses will increase as this daft stupid petrol keeps going up.

Were I live the place is dieing its bad now. There places empty everywere loads of job losses. Loads of people unemployed the situation going worse the more it goes on.

You hardly see the neiughbourghs anymore or speak to them. People dont go out much anymore and its getting worse.

This ant about people with 4x4 or sports cars. This is about everybody with a normal car, lorry, bus, van who have to go to work.

The goverment want people spending more, going out, people working in jobs, bussinesses surviving, Less unemployed. I dont think the goverment know what there doing one bit actually when you look at the fuel tax and the increases. It keeps going up it effects everybody and its perfetic.

At the moment im on the edge of what i can afford with fuel. had to get rid of a car because it was to thirsty and got a derv instead. even then with the price difference i dont think im saving as much as i thought i was!

[Toms306]

Thats not good......I'll have to become even more anal about mpg! hock:

[Dum-Dum]

I think if it goes above £1.50 im going to go back to something I can run Veg oil in.

Love the petrol noise but my car loves v-power and Im just about to take a bit of a pay cut to change jobs so something might have to give.

Moonstone's mum found a 2001 Sainsbury's fuel receipt in an old purse on the weekend: 50l of petrol for 40 quid - I can't remember if I've ever filled up a car and the number of litres was higher than the number of pounds I had to pay for it...

[Anton]

Matt it doesn't say 18.50?

[Eeyore]

its beyond a joke... You pay road tax and fuel duty. I just think you should have one or the other but not both. Especially fuel duty being near 50 percent. Its just... Everyone needs fuel... So by taxing it and raising it slowly over the years just has everyone by the scrotum!

Erm... only about 50% of the population actually... :-P

[4WayDiablo]

Yep fuel is getting rediculous! Im struggling to find it for about 80 ppl its nearly £1 pl!!!

im sure im not the only one feeling this strain.
