   ⛽ Next time you hear the Government blame the prices on overseas crisis, think of this 👇🏼

   No tax/VAT: 📉

   Unleaded 67.0p/litre
   Diesel 86.1p/litre

   Full pump price: 📈

   Unleaded 143.9p/litre
   Diesel 166.8p/litre

   Govt takes ~77p petrol / ~81p diesel per litre (fuel duty 52.95p + 20% VAT).

   Over half your fill-up is tax 💸

     That seems like $3.37/gal (USD). Still cheaper than our current prices, at least in the South.

     Oh wait, OP included numbers with taxes. US pumps include that, so it's more like $7.25/gal USD? .. Yea that seems more correct for the UK.
