George Osbourne cut the fuel duty by 1p earlier this week in his budget speech and try to fool the public that this was a massive concession which will ease the pain of Tory cuts.
In January he raised the VAT by 2.5% to 20%. This increase in VAT put the price of litre of petrol up by 3p. So by reducing the duty on fuel by 1p means that the there is a net increase of 2p per litre.
The Cuts are hurting people.
If there was shortage of money, we will not be bombing Libya!!
These are ideological cuts and a matter of choice.
