How much would people on this newsgroup be prepared to pay for a gallon of fuel?

Unfortunately the kicking that the government received last week still
doesn't seem to have sunk into their thick heads. They're still
considering "reviewing" the 2p fuel hike they've got planned for
Septemberish.
You're complaining about 2p a litre? It's gone up about 15p since last year
without any tax hikes involved - it's the price of crude which is making the
significant difference. 2p is sod-all compared to that.
Remember how tax used to be 80% of the price you paid? It's now rather
closer to 60%.
You should be happy though - the premium for diesel is growing :-)
