    Diesel prices have dropped by 8p a litre round my way in recent weeks, which is more than the fuel duty increase. Looking at oil prices and how they have dropped in the last 4-6 weeks we should see some more drops in price coming through to us.

    Yes, and also I'm sure I heard there was some clause where if the oil price dropped then the duty would be increased even more.


    Just in time for the duty to up.

    Anyone for a conspiracy theory?
  • Does anybody else think that a "price war" (as Sainsburys discount was touted in the news) should last a bit longer than a week? I went yesterday and the promotion was but a distant memory. Scam if you ask me.
