It sure has been a good few weeks and I’m wondering, if a result of the weather and as it is summer, has the price of heating dropped at all. Anybody ?

I thought it was more to do with Iranian revolutionary guards threatening to close the straits of Hormuz in the event of trump preventing Iranian oil exports? And who could blame them?“What means that trump?” Timon of Athens by William Shakespeare0 -

Yes thats probably the justification this week...
Always bemuses me that the UK Oil companies, even though they carry 3 months stock of oil are always very quick to increase prices, yet it takes them months to react when market prices drop.0 -
And when the OAP get their heating grant they put it up that week too.~We are all going to hell and guess who Is driving the bus~*Norn Iron club Member 294* (Hi, we’ve had to remove part of your signature.

Well in fairness in the oil bust a couple of years ago, prices went down a lot. Even petrol, the price of which is mostly tax, went down about 20 pence a litre. They're not operating a cartel.“What means that trump?” Timon of Athens by William Shakespeare0
