Up to 26%? The price of home heating oil at 300 litres jumped from €305 to €450 since Friday to Tuesday

Yeah, if the Government introduced a tax cut, then there would be a mysterious overnight increase in prices that matched the cut.
The cunts would just pocket it and keep whinging.

The jumps are ridiculous, especially when the petrol stations say they can’t bring the prices down when the price per barrel falls because they paid for the fuel at the higher price. But they can jump up immediately when the price increases. Absolute arseholes the lot of them.

I called it yesterday that’s why they are calling out price gouging

We have our own oil and gas. We should be exploring for this rather than being held hostage, it was extremely shortsighted to ban this before we had sufficient renewable alternatives.

Man, with control over 50% of the cost of fuel, says he can’t do anything after complaining about others’ price gouging

Looked at the prices of home heating oil in Letterkenny few days ago, one place called DonegalOil asking €194 for 100L instead of usual around €110. Drove to Strabane in the North, and got 100L for €70 (£0.61p/L).
Government should step in and investigate those businesses because this is pure price gouging and some might call it war profiteering even though we’re not at war.
It takes weeks and sometimes over a month from crude oil to end customer. But then again you had old supplies from when the price was lower…so yeah bunch of profiteers.

To make matters worse, there will likely be an influx of Iranian refugees into Europe, need a plan on how to stop and turn them back.

They could make a law that if the petrol price reaches a certain high taxes are automatically reduced and restored when the price drops. It would not even cost them anything……
