ok they want us to go out and work but how is this possible when no one can afford the fuel to get to work

they want us all to go out and use public transport when they're swanning about in a mercedes benz.

same as mate, any one wanna buy a 16v golf gti? :-(:lol:

Yes actually...

lucky for you i have 2, get your hand in your pocket and you can have one :-p

Try this then free loading to%$ers that are on BENIFIT and don't work don't pay tax don't do anything but get more money per week than the average person (one of the people at work has a husband on BENIFT £200- whatever we think is best per week).

We have to pay for them in our tax, pay for mp's to drive and own big cars in tax (o i am an MP please pay my extortionate cost of living) pay for road tax in tax (lets go for a drive o my suspensions has just collapse that was a big pothole will I get taxed for this no I just have to pay VAT for the repair)

The price of a barrel of oil in dollars has gone up but also the exchange rate has changed witch means the price when it gets to us should be the same as it was a year ago (its like the gas and electric company's lets charge them as much as we can for it because they can't do anything about it) o then they can put so tax in there somewhere

there's to much tax in this rant so I will end.

People probably wouldn't feel as hard done by if they were given a realistic alternative to the car (or would they...some car drivers are quite blinkered/ lazy) or their money was visibly seen being spent on something worth while which was related to transport. .

If we stopped dealing with petrol in $USD and in € then it would be a lot cheaper. The dollar is fucked at the moment. I thought cartels were illegal, fucking Americans.

its because people keep saying "theres nothing we can do" that its come to this........WHO VOTES FOR THESE TOSSERS? everyone does, so the only people we have to blame is all the people who vote for them

So its either the fault of those that voted for them or the brainless morons that dont care about politics and sit with their thumbs up their arses and dont vote,

Look how corrupt most of them are - and the Tories famously before this lot.

At least the conservatives werent constantly incompentant, install an unelected prime minister, a useless woman of a home sec, and further waste the english tax payers money funding uni fees and perscriptions for the scots

Edit: It's not the general public running the army tanks which require a fuel tanker to drive 200 metres behind, the government are the ones driving the V8 jeeps for army use, they're the ones using helicopters daily to train soldiers...... we all pay our taxes.... then they charge US, THE PUBLIC more?

Sorry but whats the problem with that, we need the armed forces and they should be given respect for the sacrifces they make for a county generally full of free loading foreign tossers

weren't they? don't mean to sound like a idiot, but were you actually around (as in old enough to know what was going on) when the torys were in charge? if you were you would know that this country was in a much worse state with them in ther driving seat then that it is now. mass riots and strikes, industry brought to its knees and if were talking pointless wars what about the Falklands?

totally agree mate :nod:

I'd vote for him, he'd probably have the balls to sort out the overcrowding too

:lol: Yeah right!

Kiss goodbye to Club Polo then cos the curly haired muppet would friggin' outlaw them!

Only V-dubs he gives a toss for are top end GTi, Phaeton & Bugatti Veyron.

Rather have James May PM masel... :finger:

Thats true, I was up in london the other week walking past the back of gordon browns house and i saw 5 porsches drive past in the space of 5-10 minutes! All carrera 4S or turbos.

Roll on the hydrogen fuel cell quick.

Hydrogen's no bloody good - takes too much energy to MAKE it!

Do have to point out the as Hydrogen is an element it is actually only possible to MAKE one or two atoms at a time at a huge cost, in the same way its possible to make gold from lead. Hydrogen is taken from naturally occuring sources such as water. The cost is in the production of the fuel cell combined with safe storage of highly explosive hydrogen

Apologies for my phraseology - I wasn't talking about alchemy!

Hydrogen is taken from naturally occuring sources such as water.

And how much energy does it take to do THAT?

Anyone ever see that American film where the guy makes a car that runs on grass?! Makes me wanna find out what that film was and see how he managed that lol. Also why is none of the technology used in buses going towards cars or that, these electric motors on some of the new buses are saving gallons of petrol daily (in respect to buses driving a few hundred miles a day)!!

Ahh yea but then you have to pay for the petrol for the lawnmower

it all goes round in one big circle you see

If it keeps going up, I can't really justify keeping my car at those costs. But public transport is shite so not really got much choice.

Aye cos filling up your lawnmower is going to be as expensive as filling up your car isn't :disgust:

Anyways that would never work, if that was to become a worldwide thing, i dont think there would be enough grass to actually keep it going :lol:

It is becoming a bit of a joke to be honest....going by the budget, i thought that the 2p rise wasnt meant to be hitting until october time or something?

But in all fairness certain petrol stations seem to just pick and choose there prices now adays!

I am getting a extremely worried about the prices so rapidly increasing. £60 quid of V-power into a VR6 and then having to feather foot it constantly is nooooo fun! Considering how cheap fuel is in alot of other european countries etc and of course america :roll:(pricks) why are we paying such huge taxes! One of the most powerful nations in the world with huge north sea oil reserves of our own? but we still pay one of the highest rates for petrol. Poor economical running of the country in my oppinion.

But in all fairnes, i doubt there would be much difference in whatever party was voted in. I'm sorry to say it, or actually i'm not.....would be a hell of a lot more beneficial to scotland, BUT Scottish independance FTW!!!! :thumbsup:

:lol: Think there'll be lots of G40's up for sale soon

Fuck that, rather build a museum piece than sell my car because of the government.

What bothers me is that the fuel companies are getting it here for what? 40p a litre?

Its all the scumbags in the suits! Anybody seen zeitgeist, while were observing corruption and how fucked we all are?!

Interesting fact.. there is no law that states american citizens have to pay income tax, yet most of em are blinkered into believing you have to! (a little off topic, but not only is their fuel peanuts, no one HAS to pay income tax).
