Thats because 60p ltr of the price is tax. The goverment get 60p ltr while the oil company's get around 35p they have to pay to run the forcourts and wages tankers ect and still make huge profits.. so how much does the goverment make... And guess who will pay for all the new borrowing and national debt.. you guess it the motorist. Expect around a 2/3p tax hike in the next few months.

So it was about 60p tax +55p petrol = 115p/litre
Now its 60p tax + 35p petrol = 95p/litre

So 55p to 35p - its has come down 35% if you ignore the theiving barstewards cut.
