The smoking ban contributed to the cost of fuel now being £1.10 per litre, and when they ban supermarkets from selling cheap booze that will not improve the population of the drinking establishments, it will though, further harm the revenue the government brings in from alcohol, so dont be surprised to see £1.20 at the petrol pumps very soon, meanwhile, the banks will continue to be propped up by the taxpayer, the privatised industries will continue to rob you blind, and the only winners will be, as usual, the fatcats and politicians.
