      Those are rookie numbers get ready for 4 euro plus a liter. The shit is in mid air and it will hit the fan in the next two weeks

      Something finally gave. Shit finally hit the fan. As bleak as this is it’s very interesting to watch play out from a zoomed out perspective.

      This is why I support today’s fuel protests. We cannot tolerate fuel becoming too expensive.

      I’m just glad we’re heading into warmer weather and thus the reliance on home heating oil isn’t as great.

      My big concern is that if the prices stay high enough for long enough, they will become the new normal

      Heard someone on about the fuel processing plants in Iran. Apparently if Trump takes them out it would be years before fuel prices returned to a normal price.

      How much was the govt take in excise duty and VAT when diesel was €1.70 per litre and was it their take now, at €2.20?

      „Mineral Oil Tax 2025: A total of €2.73 billion was generated from mineral oil tax on petrol and diesel in 2025, an increase of €183 million over 2024.

      Excise duties are part of the broader €22 billion+ VAT and total taxes on products, which also included €0.6 billion in customs duties in 2024“

      You know I think an excise duty holiday would be feasible on road fuel for six months. Just remove the drop in VAT on hospitality which has an estimated cost of 900m in 26/27.

      Genuinely lost for words at peoples stupidity with this whole thing. People think we should be cutting taxes to heat the band so regular Joe’s can still drive willy nilly around the place, to pretend all of this isnt happening. Supply is fucked, government are ina shocking situation. They’ll need to do something for certain sectors to make sure they can stay going but other than that we will be dealing with higher prices for a while

      Do we know what fuel is spen on ireland.. How much goes to agro, how much to constructi0on, how ,much to transport, how much to leisure …

      How do you do rationing, should we prefer commuters or farmers.. Id imagine you gotta give farmers confidence their is diesel for the long summer harvest..

      Goodbye foreign holidays, goodbye affordable goods and groceries, goodbye driving to work and school,

      Hello unemployment, hello to another decade of housing crisis, hello to even more cramped public transport.

      All because one idiot yank wanted a distraction from his kid diddling.

      You can thank the greens for ensuring we can never drill for oil in the corrib field.
      Had we done that we would be fine.
      There is 2 million barrels in just one of the fields.

      Who ever voted for this government….congratulations, you played yourself.

      What we should be doing is rapidly moving away from oil. More solar and wind. More evs .let’s reduce our need for oil in the first place

      Have to do Athlone -> Dublin three times next week.

      Thank fuck I can do two of them by train (with free travel)

      Worth noting that the best historical analogy for this crisis is the oil crisis of the 1970’s. Back then, inflation in Ireland reached a staggering 20%. In the UK it reached 25%. This is what think tanks and financial consultancies are telling their clients to brace for – not „petrol hitting €2.5 a litre“ – more like „there won’t be any petrol at the station“.

      We’re in a January 2020 moment where a few people can see the tidal wave coming while the vast majority still have their head in the clouds.

      Yeah, the Israeli’s hit more petrochemical facilities yesterday and Iran retaliated by doing same in other Arab states.

      It’s just kind of mental how things have been the last few years. I feel like someone just flicked a switch and increased the difficulty for everyone. While I don’t have kids and thankfully have been able to get my first home (in 2019, granted), it’s like they want to make EVERY aspect of life difficult. I can’t imagine what that’s like when you add people who have lost their jobs, children, childcare, people being fleeced for high rent into the equation.

      There just doesn’t seem to be an end to all this. Very depressing times.
