When is the petrol price rip-off going to be dealt with in New Zealand?

Recently I saw petrol at $2.16 in Foxton while the rest of the country was around $2.50.

All the waffle presented by any MP of the ruling party does not change the fact that petrol in some states of America is priced per gallon at what we are paying per litre. Even in Hawaii today, November 5, it is $3.97 per gallon.

We are being solidly ripped off.

When crude was US$100 a barrel, petrol here was around $1.15 and our dollar was almost worthless. Today our dollar is close to US70 cents and crude is from US$62-70 a barrel.

Petrol should be around $1 a litre today at those prices and our dollar values.
