What with impending economic collapse and 'peak oil' meaning fuel becoming too expensive, just tell the politicians and retailers they should be making friends with us if they'll be asking for our help when the hard times come. This isn't a time to be short-sighted.”

“I thought VAT went down? Didn't this apply to fuel, so prices SHOULD have come down? They didn't at Morrisson's, still at 89.9p for petrol..
