Petrol prices in Cambridge are already ~98p and Birmingham is at ~94p. Another 2p on fuel brings us very close to the prices which resulted in the protests not to long ago.

With a purely selfish hat on it doesn't really bother me as I have a fuel card but I have noticed that it's just started getting cold which could drive oil prices up. Could this be a winter of discontent that does the government a lot of harm?
