How's this for an idea ;) - What we all should do is boycott all the big oil company petrol stations like BP and Esso. Then, if we all used the supermarket stations (Asda, Morrisons, Tesco, Sainsburys) to fill up we might force a price war between them hopefully bringing petrol prices down again. :y

It's about 66% of the cost is tax (duty+vat), current high prices are due to weak pound against the doller which dont help. But we can guarantee they wont drop the price as quick as it went up.
