Have anyone else also noticed how the petrol prices went up after the budget from 99p? How is it where you are?

Mind you. It has been getting TOLD to us for a while. End of cheap petrol for weeks...... weeks....

Seems a prob in general. No one listens to news, to warnings to anything until it hits them in the kisser.

somewhere out there

A litre of diesel is 98c a litre at the garage nearest my flat here in Spain. However in Slough the garage down the road was 106.9 when I left. It's not so much budget that increased the price as the price of crude oil rising. What really gets me is that the price of crude was low for months before we saw any benefit but as soon as it starts to rise prices go up.

No it hasn't.

It's at 40 dollars today for the first time in weeks, before that it got to 42 dollars, the low was 35 dollars... And that's during winter.

There's only place oil is going unless they cut supply and that's down

Good points everyone, one thing I don't get is, why there is such a difference in the prises. I know it varies from area to area, but what would for example be the real price be for lets say 1 litre? Should an universal price be set you recon?

Market forces.

Wealthy areas pay more, not so wealthy areas pay less.

Rural lone garage more.

Plentiful urban ones, less.

.

Crude oil has a price limit at volume, probably around 200-250 dollars a barrel!.

Sure you could sell a bunch for a thousand dollars a barrel, but you wouldn't sell 85 million a day.

.

.

A true capitalist system requires accurate and honest market forces to work, unfortunately today alot of them are manipulated and dishonest!

Nature of the beast I guess

That is a good point about honesty in the market and yeah they wouldn't sell 85million a day, it would be too much.

We have not had a tanker delivery driver strike for a while ???? that kind of scare mongering usually pushes the price up and more money in the govt coffers because of panic buying ???

It always goes up in the run up to Easter, then stays a bit highish, with the occasional peak around each bank holiday.

Yes, that is a odd price in euros. What would it be in pounds?.

Actually I need new specs. It's 87c for a litre of diesel here.
