Why THIS government? Fuel escalator brought in & Olympics bid for under the previous incumbents.

Sirus, by the sound of you, you love the Tories, hate Unions and don't like people airing there opinions.

Well sadly l say what l think, and if you don't like it - then tough.

There were queues outside several garages this morning, and the strike hasn't even started, due to the pompous behaviour of the great Tory leader, who doesn't have to worry about putting fuel in his car - we pay it in out taxes.

And will they come back down to 'normal'?
will they heck. they'll stay there and gradually start rising by 1p every other day.

and then the way it works is the government will say to help the problem we're not going to put that 3p on now. and we'll celebrate in the streets because petrol is cheap!!

we're mad. absolutely raving bonkers we are.
