So what about construction ? We’ve not only had to suffer the hike from red to white , now we are suffering the higher cost of the white . Why not have construction back running on red ? Are there any bodies that act on our behalf in the interests of all construction sectors like the NFU do for farmers ?

that level of duty only applies to deliveries of more than 2300lt .....
savvy folk have always bought in at 2300 or less with a 5% duty levied .... ;)

I always bought at 2300 and sometimes had 2 or 3 deliveries a week --
local supplier was perfectly happy 'to play the game' -
a sale was a sale and made the RDCO record keeping so much simpler - for him and me :rolleyes:

and why wait a month to cut the duty, 'til the 15th June ? ... do it today FFS :mad:

this is a more interesting quote? ................................................................................................................................ 👇👇👇
" The Treasury has also extended the 5p/litre cut on road fuel duty to the end of year and .... granted road hauliers a year’s grace on road tax. " @Mogman when's yer tax up for renewal mate ???

There is the civil engineering contractors association. But has nowhere the members.
They do campaign for stuff like this and do get an audience with parliament. But I don't think they have a huge amount of clout
