Errr not quite.
Brent Crude (Highest Quality) is at $108 a barrel and was just on $118. which is a drop of $10 / barrel
WTI Crude (Lowest Quality) is at $85 a barrel and maxed at $100 a barrel which is a drop of $15 / barrel.

RE: the oil companies fleecing the public? I think it's a bit closer to home than that. Do you realise how much the government get of your £1.32 / litre?

It's nice to see the cap working. Diesel at my local ASDA went from 135.9p to 136.9p! So much for a 2p drop.It is also introducing a cap of 132.7p per litre for unleaded and 136.7p per litre for diesel at all its filling stations.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Er... ummmm... roads?
Maintained and paid for by your local county council without, may I add, any help from central government funds. So I already pay for that through my council tax.
Next please.Near a tree by a river, there's a hole in the ground.
