The bigger companies supply the likes of Morrisons etc anyway, so there's not much point boycotting the named outlets. From what the girls at the local filling station say, the companies make more from the forecourt shops than the actual petrol anyway.

this is not about oil companies putting up prices on a whim its about oil prices as a whole going from low 20's to $65 a barrel in a space of 12 months, do the maths please.
Even tho there is a lot of tax in the price that hasn't changed in that time.
You wanna lower prices shoot a few americans to lower their consumption, stop invading iraq and bring relative peace to oil rich african nations
rant over
