About LinkBacksBearer of bad news I'm afraid. Even with the economy in turmoil, those in No10 have decided the fuel taxes will go back up on April 1st.
Ouch.
Oh, and the temporary VAT rate is set to end in December too, so back to 17.5%.

Yep another 2p as of next month. *sigh*
Ive given up getting angry about it, as its turned from a govt into a dictatorship.
Rasta compared to the rapidly changing GBPUSD rate, the price we've seen sweet crude light at.
This is little effect.
As much as i hate these muppets, and wish we had a nice Thatcher, this isn't going to be *that* bad

Good. this should never have been changed in the first place.Originally Posted by dave87
Means I won't end up with pockets full of coppers when out shopping.
Most stores just rounded up to the next .99 anyway.
Or, when prices were cut, cut them to .99 prices.
That said, major purchases are cheaper, which was the aim iirc. Not a supporter of GB, but if a car is 2.13% cheaper due to a VAT change, I'm happy.
Wasn't it going to go to 18%?
Only if you believe an oposition party that will, like any oposition party, jump on the slightest little thing to try and get one more dig at the party in power.
There was an old draft of a proposal that suggested it, that doesn't make it fact.
Ok maybe not *that* bad but still an extra £15/£20 a month Il be having to pay for fuel.Rasta compared to the rapidly changing GBPUSD rate, the price we've seen sweet crude light at.

Is this on top of the previous delay ending, or is it just the end of the postponement of last years rise?
I think it should go up more to be honest - fuel duty is by far and away the fairest road tax.
me too... and some
Dont really need a fuel escalator again, but seems like they've invented one.
Nope, more on fuel, then the new car tax prices are coming into affect as well :@
I believe it is the postponed 2p tax rise Kalniel, but I believe this has a knock on effect on VAT, so will be higher than that.
Must start to drive more economically.
Yes but as the US starts buying up its own bills, 1.3T announced, roomers flying of up to 3T?
The Dollar becomes worth slightly less, will we see a change of more than 2%, whilst i don't trade FX vol so am in no posistion to say, i'd say yes
As such the government tax hike is going to be minimal to the market price shifts.
Take a look a the price of "Brent Crude Sweet Light" and see how it has changed in the last 18 months.
Then look at refinary capacity.
Its a bit like complaining one person is pissing in the sea, whilst your swiming round a raw sewage outlet pipe. Quit moaning its the least of your worries whilst ur in wales.

yeah... if you didn't have to pay RFL as well, I'd agree.
