Hi Gerald after our Chancellor's Budget yesterday I think civil unrest come August is now inevitable with a 3.6p/litre increase in fuel duty(+VAT) on the cards. It will be the straw that broke the back of the camel

It takes real genius to destroy an economy but that mission is just about acomplished Meanwhile at the pole http://arctic-roos.org/observations/satellite..._images/ssmi_ice_area.png Not taking a blind bit of notice of the comings and goings of Mankind....as ever |

I think you are right there comes a point where someone has to take a real stand--over here the govt. is destroying our economy |

Hi Gerald
----------------------------------------Today the news is that, on average, across the Nation the price of Petrol/Gasoline has just passed £1.40 a litre http://news.sky.com/home/business/article/16194907 At today's exchange rate that is $8.41 / gallon us and they still want to add a further 3.6p per litre in fuel duty and vat to that price in August making it the equivalent today of $8.63/gallon us This while we pay twice the price in the USA for Electricity. The cheapest I can find tonight is £1.37-9/litre ...and the justification for these taxes..... |
