More unnecessary meddling, this causes price convergence so anyone living close to a typically lower cost source of fuel is going to have an almost imperceptible increase in relative cost.

They certainly love spending taxpayer money on nothing don't they.

I see where you're going, but this happen now where I live. All prices are with in 2p of each other in a 2 mile radius.

but travel around 5miles and it's typically 5-9p cheaper

no way can this make it worse for me - hopefully people will travel to punish the garages.
