FUEL PRICE WAR........Boycott BP and Esso.
abinitio:
Nice idea but as already said it won't work as esso and BP supply alot of supermarkets etc anyway.
As for 69p per litre, that means the fuel co's would be making a loss, remember its mostly tax and for the 40 odd p the fuel company get they have to source the fuel, refine it, deliver it, staff forecourts, maintain pumps etc.
Besides fuel co's make little out of domestic fuel anyway so probably would take a long time to give a damn but would use it as a good excuse to axe jobs and put people out of work.

Nothing personal - but it is the third time this EXACT SAME THREAD has been posted in the last year - how about changing the wods around a bit or even boycotting a different oil company - that might make it interesting :lol:

It' s easy to make this happen. Just forward this email, and buy your petrol at Shell,
Asda,Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Jet etc.

I think the main reason for the lack of responce on here is because this has been going for the best part of two years and has been on here three times that I can remember.
About the only thing that will bring the price of fuel down is a reduction in the tax on it, you won't get much from the companies no matter how you try to hit them.
You let me know know when your fuel price reaches the same as it is up here and I'll feel sorry for you. The price of diesel has been over £1.00 per litre since August 2005.
The prices today are 105.9p per litre for diesel and 103.9p per litre for petrol, and that's at the cheapest petrol station on the island!
We only have National and BP stations on the island and all the fuel that feeds those come in by boat from Grangemouth and is held in the same tanks until the road tankers arrive to distribute it.
