Fuel Prices
Could somebody please explain as to why, in the current round of fuel price rises, the cost of Diesel is increasing at twice the rate of Unleaded? A couple of weeks ago, Diesel and Unleaded were roughly the same price. Now Diesel is on average 3-4p a litre more expensive. Hidden Government Tax rise??

The net result is that the diesel customer subsidises the petrol customer not getting such a headline raising price hike.
Or am I being cynical?
