"think we need another protest, and dont forget that over 70% goes in tax to buy duck houses there is to be a protest on the 1st of may that has been organized through a facebook campaign" It sounds as though it's a biker's rolling roadblock in the North West starting at Hartshead Moor Services on the M62 and then heading for Manchester finishing at Rock Radio. Not sure what they are trying to do with that but it won't bring the prices down. | |||

By the way, if you are going to round off an otherwise great point of view with a bit casual racism, at least get the wording right. Its Scottish cunts, not Scotch cunts!!! What are you, American?? | |||

"About 3/4 of the pump price is tax, so if you feel that strongly about blockades, go blockade number 10. Driving around (using petrol) as a protest against the cost of petrol seems rather silly really. Why not just burn some tenners in the street? Yes, oil companies make a lot of money. So do banks (usually). If you want a share in the profit, buy a share in the company! If you object to there being a profit at all, vote Communist Party. " I'm sorry, but that's a pretty weak argument. For a start, buying shares will get you a pathetic return on your money unless you buy millions of shares. As for Communism, sheesh, would you REALLY want to live under such a regime? When the oil companies gloat about 135% profits of £5bn in the first quarter of the year then that's akin to saying, "Thanks, you bunch of stupid gullible twats." I'm all in favour of an annual price cap. What costs something on Jan 2 should cost the same on Dec 31st, then a reasonable rise on Jan 1 of 2% above inflation. No company needs to make obscene profits of £5bn/quarter. It begs the question of just how much money do they have on deposit as these kinds of profits are posted regularly, and if that's the case, I'm sure they can ride out a fluctuation in crude prices over the course of a year. They are profiteering, that much is absolutely clear, but because the govt relies heavily on the tax that oil raises the govt are unwilling bedfellows of the oil companies. It's almost like the govt have no choice but to be turned over and fucked up the arse by BP in return for the revenues that we the taxpayer give it, and the govt fuck us up the arse in return. When you realise how all closely linked it is you get sudden sense of hopelessness as it hits you that no govt is ever going to reduce petrol prices to more affordable and realistic levels. We're screwed basically. | |||

"The West Lothian question. Don't really catch your meaning there... By the way, if you are going to round off an otherwise great point of view with a bit casual racism, at least get the wording right. Its Scottish cunts, not Scotch cunts!!! What are you, American??" Well, I won't explain the West Lothian Question, Google is your friend. Even so, I just lobbed that one in there, that issue had little to do with my sentiments on petrol prices, their nationality is simply the common denominator between the two people (apart from cuntish-ness). How do you know I'm not American, and would it be an issue if I was? Of course not, but best be careful in case some twitchy Yank takes offence. Actually, there's nothing wrong with my wording, apart from in your perception. My apologies if you thought I was being offensive (or using "casual racism") but Scotch was the accepted adjective from at least the 18th century in England and Scotland, over the term "Scottish" (Eng.) or "Scots" (Sc). Indeed, that well-known (American?) poet, Robert, sorry, Rabbie Burns used the term many times in his work. Only in the 20th Century did some Scotch people decide that it was a derogatory term, and in 1982 the OED abandoned the use of Scotch as a sop to those sensibilities. Many Scottish people, my Grandfather - born and bred in Glasgow - among them, use(d) the word "Scotch", or rather, "Scoatch". Me, as a rebel against any politically correct emasculation of the English language in case it offends anyone, prefer to use the word "Scotch". And to wind Scotch people up, obviously. | |||

" I'm all in favour of an annual price cap. What costs something on Jan 2 should cost the same on Dec 31st, then a reasonable rise on Jan 1 of 2% above inflation.." How are you going to measure inflation under pricecapping, in order to then increase prices by a further 2%? Unless my maths is as woolly as you think my other arguments were, you're into an exponential pricing curve there. This is why I normally stick to the "how sensitive are your tits threads" - I end up getting too deep into an argument. | |||

This is why I normally stick to the "how sensitive are your tits threads" - I end up getting too deep into an argument." The whole purpose of inflation is to measure performance on a year by year basis. Companies need to show that they have performed better than the previous year so that it's shareholders are justified in keeping their money in said company. Who's to say that we need this level of capitalism, why not simply have a system that provides for it's citizens and allows a modest price rise to be built into it. Who needs $5.4bn every quarter, what purpose does is provide? Where does the money go? To the shareholders! I know I'm talking hypothetically but it's borne out of frustration that my car needs £60 worth of fuel to fill it up when last year it required £50 to fill the tank. I have to pay these increased prices so that the bloody government can redistribute my money to malingerers and wasters who pay nothing into the system. I'm just so angry about it. | |||

From oil you create aviation fuel, petrol, diesel etc through a precess called fractional distillation. (ok there are other methods too) The oil fields cant be turned on and off at the drop of a hat so i was wondering if there was a glut in fuel which might drive prices down! | |||
