No shit. They realised that people have no choice but to pay and pocketed the extra revenue
It’s a shame Labour don’t tackle shit like this and unite the country instead of dividing it with crap like digital ID.
“People will pay these prices that make us more money, so why would we lower them?”
Absurd profits being made by oil companies right now.
They always have and always will. We are ripped off constantly over here.
Thank fuck ! I was worried that Shell or BP might go without this year……
All the stuff that went up because of COVID and then oil prices has mysteriously stayed up once those things went back to normal.
Perhaps this is one of those times when a massive windfall tax would be worth putting in place.
Competition is meant to keep prices low, but based on anecdotal evidence in local area, it isn’t working. I know of a garage next to a major oil refinery that makes the stuff, which charges 10 or more pence per litre than the cheapest in the area. Worse still, the garage is part of the same company that own the Refinery!
I don’t deny lower fuel prices would encourage driving and have an adverse affect on pollution etc, but stopping the price gouging by fuel companies would be a big win for Labour.
There’s 2 Sainsbury’s supermarkets near me, 5 miles away from each other down an A road and they have a 10p difference between them. The cheaper one is near a Tesco and the more expensive one isn’t near any other supermarket petrol station.
We know. Our government knows.
We can’t do anything about it, we are forced into this situation.
Our government doesn’t give a flying fuck, because a lot of them actually make money on it too.
Whichever way you look, we’re fucked.
