This is why I don't follow politics. All I care about is the numbers on my paycheck, as long as the Tax and NI numbers decrease and thus, the actual amount I recieve per month increases, then they can do whatever the hell they like

im with you here. why are the government so concerned about green when we commit only a small fraction of the global emissions. we are made to pay for the guilt of others knowing it is ruining our country to the detriment of the people.
politicians - disconnected from humanity shocker
No change to existing plans laid out. The raise was an existing plan and as such it's going up.

Why on earth would they continue to increase it?! Sure this will drive more people off of the roads, thus reducing the revenue generated by petrol sales.
Ahh I see.
I was paying 82.9p per litre when I started driving and that was 'only' late 2008.
Because it doesn't, does it? Everyone was ranting and striking when prices crept above £1/litre. A few years on, another 40% on top and it hasn't made a difference to the number of people on the roads.
Yeah keep telling yourself that, fake cigarettes are full of lead and other toxic heavy metals that will accumulate within your body and cause organ failure. Just like some of the fake booze going around full of methanol which could eventually cause blindness. Yes the real stuff isn't all that great for you but you'd have to be pretty stupid to think that counterfeit goods won't cause you more harm. Fake goods only work well because people in the most part are stupid.

This sucks, its going to cost almost 80p a litre for LPG soon
So counterfeit goods that are knock off's of something that will kill you cause more harm by....potentially killing you... more? (I know what your getting at but its still a comical situation).

As far as I'm aware drinking the odd bit of Vodka every once in a while won't make you go blind, however drinking counterfeit Vodka could potentially leave you seriously ill with Methanol poisoning.
