I don,t know if it will do any good but there is a site where you can sign a petition to the high cost of fuel it is.

Done. Put my name down.

All done, probably won't amount to much though.

anyone else wonder why prices have hiked? Just checking (and I'm no expert) but the price of oil is at an all time high (in $s), however, the £ is at its best rate against the $ ever (around $2.5/£1), surely this should cancel some of it out? Or are all barrels paid for using a nations reserves of $?

just curious

I've been pondering this (allbeit silently) for weeks. I filled up this morning and it cost me 1.05 per litre, I couldn't believe it, that's more than a tank of BP Ultimate I filled up with a month or so ago.

This is a VERY good point WhyTF are we paying more if the £ is much stronger than the $?? they need to add that to the website!!

I signed it.. but we as a WHOLE and other car FORUMS need to get behind it.. so if any one could copy that link on to any of the other forums they go on?!
