Will take a while for that change in price to filter in to futures prices…
Only petrol?
Not diesel?
Yes I’m sure they will be quick to pass on these savings….
What? And we should be grateful for this?
F**k off.
The profits the parent companies have made in the last few months are sickening, the prices never fall as fast as they go up, and yet we’re expected to get excited because prices are coming back to what only a few years ago were unthinkably high?
Nope. Sorry. This is b******s.
I can’t help but remember fondly that is was around 79p when I started driving.
Paid 159.9 last weekend. Briefly celebrated how cheap it was, then realised its still ridiculously priced, even at 12p less than every other petrol station.
October 2021 we were all surprised when it hit 130 after the demand induced shortages
As soon as price rises though it’ll be in the board within 1 minute
It’s greed
This is business plan 101 to make more money on necessities. Raise prices through a “crisis” to have an excuse. Reduce back down after the “crisis” but never back to what they were before. It’s an attempt to make people feel grateful that the price is reduced without most realising that it’s still higher than it was before the “crisis”. Company gets a double dose of profits. Short term it’s those from the silly prices and panic buying and then long term it’s from the increased prices.
Shame it’s E10 though at that price. E5 is way better
So they’re going to dip down to the level of still being far too high.

Are we supposed to celebrate?
Still much more expensive than it was
