Re: fuel how the government can help

Gordon Brown has hinted today that the planned 2 pence per litre increase on fuel duty that was due to come into effect in October, may now be put on hold.
Does he really think that this will placate the electorate? He has stabbed us in the jugular and tries to appease us by giving us a band aid. Can't the man see that British business is haemorrhaging to death, and that a band aid isn't any use at all?
