Then we should sell it to the US for more so we pay less tax ...
Here in Moscow, the petrol is dirt cheap. It might be minus 20 outside, but the snow is shovelled off the pavements, the roads are kept clear, and every building I visit is properly heated.
Oh, how I'm looking forward to coming back to the UK next month!
hang on and bit your tongue Tony. The price for crud oil is by the barrel and Opac sets the price . The brit government tax's it at a higher rate than the USA don't cry about gas prices to me. Complain to your government for excessive taxing
We are your largest customer of UK exported oil. We pay the same for oil rather it is from the UK or Saudi oil. I would rather my money go to the UK than Saudi So what I'm saying is we pay the same for oil as you, our is taxed less by our government.Yes Keith we are being screwed as usual. 50% of the oil from the North sea goes over to the states so they can have cheap fuel.
That is one stupid remark. Just like saying I want more per troy ounce for gold than what the world market is, and see how much you sell
Would love to see something to the fact saying that and then spill the beans to the news media for back handed oil dealsThink if you look into it John we have to sell the oil to the USA at a preferential rate, it's in the contracts we signed to get the US oil men to open the wells up. Don't know much about it but might be worth a search if you're interested.

Feckin oil dealers
Are not BP, Shell the big boys there??????????? and they are not owned by the yanksI have heard it mentioned by politicians over here. Basically we sold ourselves down the river to get at the oil. Something to do with the contracts we signed to get the Yanks to drill the holes i think. They were the only ones who could do it at the time. Worth a look.
