Campaign to Reduce UK Petrol Prices - a rip-off at 80p a litre

>Philip Hollsworth offered this good idea:

>will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed
>it... .. THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all You have to do is
>send this to 10 people. That's all.(and not buy at ESSO/BP) How long
>would all that take? If each of us sends this email out to ten more

>PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE 69p a LITRE RANGE

>Action: It's easy to make this happen. Just forward this email, and buy

Trouble is Sheel is expensive too !!

Tombs - you're getting off lightly by the sounds of it - I'm paying 88.9p for Optimax. :(

[simonas]

86.9p for me as well. Its horrible paying that. anyone know if its due to keep rising

[YorkshireRam]

90.0p for optimax here - the petrol attendant guy told me to expect prices of 95p+ by the end of june. :nod: hope he was havin a laugh with me :no:

anyone think a £1 a litre will be reached this year at this rate? and would anyone consider selling their car if prices got this high?

[mattpayne]

today is payday... for the past few days ive been SKINT!!! and ran the car right down to vapour...

filling up at the Shell (opti 86.9p) seemed to take longer than usual...

id managed to fit £48 into the tank!!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: i nearly shat meself! even the guy in the petrol station grinned and said that he wouldnt fancy doing that each week... :)

bastid petrol... :) nearly £50!!! its just not on!

[cherry1809]

Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP at 77p -80p
Except most of that price is tax,added by our government.

[b14ck]

89.5p i paid this week, last week it was 81.9p :eek: the way i save on the tax is i just buy hooky cigs now and dont pay any tax on them so the money i save on fags offsets the sky high gas prices.

you might get my tax with petrol but you can shove the cig tax up your fukin arse gordon brown :furious:

[Leon]

I'm getting seriously f*cking fed up of this lark :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious: :furious:

ahh get your whinging hat off sunny james.
89.9+ here.
:rolleyes:

[tDR]

I intend to move to another country, purely because of the price of fuel here :indiff:

[arry]

I've actually reconsidered how often I use my car because of the petrol prices. Whereas before I'd nip out at night to see a friend I wont now - because its just far too expensive

Looks like the green party got their way afterall :rolleyes:

[Yak]

Remember guy that even though fance has lower (not low) taxes on feul you have to pay to use the motor way net work there so either way you end up paying more. Just this wa the people who use more fuel py more than the people who use the motorways more but use less fuel. Its just a fdiffrent way of generating a simular revinue.

[mattygti-r]

yep optimax is 89p now :mad:

thing is even in france id rather pay for decent roads that dont do more damage as you drive over all them "pot holes"

:nod:

[SR20DET]

Feck me whats going on with UK fuel prices?! Here in my area were now at 1.20€/litre which is 80p. In the past I remember our prices always being higher compared to UK but now you even overtook us :eek: What a bloody ripoff :mad: The fact which annoys me most is 80% or something is just taxes n shit. Without all this crap we would have yank-like low prices... :rant:
