The likes of Tesco and Asda have the money to buy petrol up front and make a fortune from the flak that hits the fan following any hickup....but what about the local trader who has to full his tanks and run a business on petrol sales - and pay up front for the petrol and the high rate of tax that is also due for payment up front..........he does not stand a chance, and that is why we get a very unstable market.....The public purse gains and GB has more money for his economic mess?
