A litre of petrol would cost approximately 88 pence at an average US pump.
In UK it’s averaging at 172.5p per litre - with 76p of that tax

In two years Labour took an extra £64 billion in tax.
They then borrowed another £244 billion.
You cannot see where it went.
The hospital wait is still years.
The high street is still in decline.
The streets are still full of potholes.
Just yesterday we found out 12 billion went on PIP to non brits.
Their answer is more tax and more borrowing.
That is not government.
That is utter incompetence, they don't care as they dont pay.
You do.

Imagine calling someone who has paid at least £1 billion more in tax than you a "parasite" when your own wages come from the British taxpayer.
Sir Jim Radcliffe saying what too many are scared to say. Any sane person knows he’s correct. Any serious investor skips Britain now.
All those leftie retards saying the US has tourist taxes - can you point to where they have 20% VAT?

It is exactly the opposite.
Governments do not know how to make money and there's no growth in jobs or the economy if there's no money being made.
If this is seriously his big idea, it will fail in a big way.
More misery will be heaped upon us, especially the young.

Public sector pay growth hits 6.1%, private sector growth just 2.8%.
"Annual average regular earnings growth [in July] was 6.1% for the public sector and 2.8% for the private sector" - ONS
British taxpayers are being FLEECED, the public sector just keeps wasting more & more.

That brilliant Burnham Cost of Living plan in full:
1. Take 56p off electricity bills for a bit
2. Screw over a few vape shops
3. Tax the hell out of anyone with a house or a good job
4. Make a bunch of TikTok videos
5. Er….thats it.

The government is not good at providing jobs
The private sector is
High tax, high regulation and the world’s most expensive energy is chasing jobs out of the UK
Labour is destroying the British economy
