4RE Leather Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 I blame the Conservitive voters living in the Green Belt!!! I blame the last party for the debt we're now paying off, and their fake green policy which was just away to cream more taxes. To be fair I don't like any of the politicians. Everything they do is for the short term as they are always promoting for the next term in office. They all just tamper with things than actually fix them.

rtbiscuit Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 their populations are exponential and their need for resources is the same. go look at the increase in car sales over the last 5 years in china and india. if we weren;t short on fuel now we will be in the near future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetSet Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 if we weren;t short on fuel now we will be in the near future Yep, we are using it up at an ever increasing rate. Saw a documentary about a new oil field that's been discovered in Ecuador, worth billions but right in the heart of a huge nature reserve...it'll take 20 years to get all of the oil out but the most shocking thing was that it will provide just 3 days of oil for the world!!

Dblock Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 i think road tax should be scrapped, and toll roads brought in. Green taxes should not be payed on the size of an engine but the amount they produce due to mileage. Imagine the hyper inflation that would cause when it costs £200 for a loaf of bread. The road tax needs to tax everyone even if they dont drive 1 mile. Imagine all the commuters etc out of a job. Post would go bankrupt, food supplies would stop and it would stifle our freedom.

marzman Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Petrol seems to have crept up even further this week... i've just paid £1.48 for Optimax at my local station. A week ago i was paying £1.43 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Correct me if I am wrong but don't you park our Jag up Mr Biscuit ? do 8 miles a day commuting wise. about 9k a year in mileage. driven all year round come rain shine or snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green taxes should not be payed on the size of an engine but the amount they produce due to mileage. Not keen on tolls but would prefer it to go on the petrol. It's not really fair that Caroline should pay £450 a year when she only does 3k a year, when a car driven 12k a year with £150 road tax would actually produce more pollution Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Its only 75p here ....... I will be off now How much... "Standard grade gasoline in the UAE is sold at 25p per litre, less than half of the global average price according to the World Bank. The government pays around 20p towards every liter of gasoline sold. There are current proposals in Cabinet to reduce the price of gasoline by 60% to 10p per litre" Now where's my 392 Hemi Dodge Challenger...............

rabbitstew Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Fuel also seems to have been dropping slowly in price over the last few weeks. Unleaded is 131.9 near me and diesel is 137.9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beavis Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 3p fuel duty hike cancelled I always find that a load of bollox anyway, sometimes it goes up 3p overnight without warning and no one ever questions or seems bothered why! I am quite sure its already bolted on in some capacity anyway. On my recent trip to Germany we passed a petrol station on the way to work every morning and the price would always be 1.66 euros in the morning and always 161 euros per litre on the way back from work at tea time!
