Thanks to the EU and the Lisbon treaty that wasn't a treaty so we didn't need a referendum even though we were promised one they could be getting even higher.

Quote:
The European Union is drawing up plans for its first direct tax with a "green" levy on petrol, coal and natural gas that could cost British consumers up to £3 billion.
The new tax would lead to direct rises in petrol and energy bills and additional price increases due to higher costs for industry.
