My understanding of the way fuel prices work is that when crude goes up, so do costs at the pump. When crude prices fall, the price at the pump remains high so the fat cats can get fatter.

I'd love to see this have an effect at the pump though so fingers crossed!

Doubt the reduction in crude oil price will be passed on, it'll just stay at the price it is then rise more once it starts going up again

Unfortunately, I don't see it making any difference at all, for reasons outlined above !

i doubt it'll get cheaper, prices may stay the same for a while but the government will lap it up what with 62% of the cost of a litre going straight to them!! The Uk is pretty much the worst country for tax on fuel so we won't benefit at all....... we should all chip and get a fuel tanker and go fill it up over the channel somewhere!!
