"I find it amazing how quickly it went up considering the oil that's been bought @ $100 has probably not even yet arrived at a refinery. Also, oil was $125 a barrel 9 years ago and fuel was £1.25 per litre. Profiteering?" Absolutely profiteering, OPEC are deliberately reducing production of oil, a small reserve of oil with a high demand will equate to high prices meaning more profit for them, its not like a few years back OPEC were producing so much oil they could barely sell it, there was a glut of oil on the market so prices went down, they won't make that mistake again | |||

"The fuel launderers along the border will be looking gleefully at an emerging business opportunity, but with thousands of gallons of acid and cleanser also being dumped into rivers and left at roadsides in tubs and containers. Every cloud has a silver lining !" Green diesel is around a euro a litre now, washing it would probably take 10 cent a litre from their profit, they still leaves 60 cent a litre profit, anybody good at maths 60 cent multiplied by 25,000 litres your standard fuel tanker lorry will calculate their profit  | |||
"Does anyone think that the price will decrease at some stage in the future?" Shoot me now - but it's all part of the Great Reset. A pandemic, food and fuel shortages, massive price hikes, inflation, war, cyber attacks, possibly another virus - all a deterrent from what's actually happening. The move to the social credit system by next crashing the financial systems, implementing digital currency, cash will be gone, you'll be easier to "control" in your spending, in your movements, in how you're taxed etc... Klaus Schwab, World Economic Forum: "You will own nothing and you will be happy" aka Agenda 2030 or the fourth industrial revolution. All painted beautifully and picturesque in their smart cities of the future where Joe Bloggs and Jane Doe are happy to work 24/7 to make the wealthiest of the wealthy even wealthier while their freedom to make choices on their movements and spending will be a thing of the past. Democracy is dead. But don't say we, the famous conspiracy theorists, didn't warn you | |||

"Does anyone think that the price will decrease at some stage in the future?" Has petrol ever fallen more than 5p for more than 2weeks. I first started driving in 1988, it was 37p per litre.. Up n up n up.. always excuses in a crisis, never reduced more than 50% of the increase.. | |||

"Fuck me I thought the covid/ virus threads had all the nutcakes The problem is you're so feckin mad you don't even know it A bit disappointed that the word sheep wasn't used yet but the night is young " Nope they expanded into other areas I. E. Ukraine and inflation and cost to feed into their horseshit conspiracy. Everything has to do with the great reset or the cabal or qanon. They're so removed from the reality that everything they've been banging on about for over two years didn't happen, they cling to anything with the slightest shred of evidence (usually completely wrong) to prove their bloody stupid thoery. Rabbit hole. | |||

That's just it... you guys warn us constantly of all kinds of crazy shite... and it never happens. That's why we just ignore it."It's a process obviously and takes time. We're only at the beginning of that process. Agenda 2030, another few years to go .
Have you actually ever bothered researching the World Economic Forum, the members, the plan, the background of these people, some of the speeches, the infiltration of the Davos clique in all world governments and the powers they have over decisions, decisions on policy making, decisions on putting laws in place etc.
It's right there in front of your eyes, just clad a little more prettily, all in the eyes of social conscience, social responsibility and duties but at the loss of what you've known to be called democracy and the "freedom to move freely, speak freely, protest peacefully and work" pre Covid.
And things that were predicted did happen. And more as we speak.
But I realize it's a terrifying prospect so best put your head back in the sand and deny anything is happening that isn't quite kosher | |||

"I suspect that by the end if this year fuel prices for road vehicles will be £2 sterling per litre. The price of piped gas for central heating will more than double; if Russia decides to turn off the tap for natural gas, the sky is the limit for shipped LNG (liquified natural gas) from areas unaffected by war. Frankly, from a security of supply perspective I always thought that relying on natural gas from the former Soviet Union, CIS, Commonwealth of Independent States,was astrategic miscalculation." 2022 - Tony Blair Institute sets out plan to halt Europe's dependency on Russian gas.. fuckin rich from the guy thar invented the term "Energy Security" after 9/11 and insisted the UK dealt with our addiction to fossil fuels in 2006... 2006 - Tony Blair has warned that security of energy supply will become almost as crucial an issue for this country as defence. The Prime Minister (Tony Blair) was speaking as he marked the official opening of Langeled gas pipeline from Norway, which will provide about 20 per cent of the UK's gas needs for the next 30 years. He needs to crawl back under his rock if he thinks he has something to say about energy supply today. Himself and subsequent later governments did nothing other than shut down coal fired power and switch to gas, claiming it was cleaner. Before anyone says, I voted for him as all the others did that fell fir his BS. As for mains gas, I have ordered 4x propane cylinders as 1) it is cheaper to use LPG, and 2) if gas gets shut off as long as I can find a cylinder, the boiler works.. Once I've converted the boiler to LPG, grid is not going back on mains. They can shove the Standing Charges where the sun isn't shining. | |||
"It's mostly tax. If the greens have their way it will go up even more" Hear hear ..a very truthful comment , I personally hate the Greens, all they do is TAX TAX TAX. | |||
| |||
"The government doesn't care about the price of petrol and diesel since the prices have risen dramatically, so has the amount of tax they take. The time is ripe for people to stand up to these Green party idiots and refuse to pay the exorbitant motor tax, as most Euro zone countries such as France and Germany have only a nominal registration charges.." Well said! We have to stand up together, this is ridiculous, it's mostly tax. Like the lady, essential journeys for me also  | |||

"I can see sales of electric scooters skyrocketing. Same for chainsaws as everyone goes back to solid fuel for fires as they can't afford home heating oil." Will an e scooter travel 15 miles on 1 charge? | |||
"Paid 1.90 for diesel the other day,disgrace, government says they will intervene if it hits 2euro,time for intervention is now fs "Trying to find where I saw it, bit it seem up to 85% of our diesel is refined in Russia and shipped here. Dockers refusing to offload Russian boats plus import ban, I thinks its going only one way.. | |||

You could still use burner to preheat water then top off with boiler. Solar Thermal is a good.option as is PV with a 'cheap' Heat Pump to use it. | |||

"Martinlewismoneysavingtips. Diesel £1.68 per litre... £85 to fill the tank. Fill her up and drive off. £50 Court fine. Save £35 per tank. ??"

"Cracks me up that many are still driving at 80-100mph on motorways. They must have monet to burn.. Do people not understand driving at these speeds, fuel consumption up 15% to 30%. They'll care when fuel stations are empty.. Anyone remember the Nationwide Drive campaign of the 80's. Slap a sticker in your car and drive at 55mpg. " This is good practical advice and it does make a huge difference to fuel comsumption, a few years ago Irish Ferries slowed their vessels for exactly this reason as it does save fuel.

I'm not sure it's been applied yet has it?"No it applies from tonight on but what I'm saying is that a lot of petrol station have hiked the price of petrol/diesel last night in accordance to the expected excise duty cut, so when the cut comes in we're back to the same price as it was a day ago. Basically pocketing the cut themselves rather than passing it on to the customer. It's absolutely scandalous! | |||
