Regardless of the tuppence they seem to be throwing back at us, the government and in particular the Green party are getting it square in the neck from the Irish public over the extortionate fuel prices.
The Russian/Ukrainian conflict may be part of the reason as to rising fuel costs, but the Green Party’s Eamon Ryan is receiving much criticism too for people seeing up to €2 at fuel pumps.
Hard-pressed motorists are facing massive price hikes at the pumps, courtesy of the minority Green Party.
Eamon Ryan’s focus on raising the carbon tax by €7.50 per tonne will translate into more misery piled onto car users, who are already paying extortionate insurance premiums.
Home heating fuels are also expected to go up from May 2022.
Many people on social media have been commenting that they’re seeing massive prices at garages around the country since the Budget passed.
One social media user said: “It’s impossible to just go for a spin anywhere now, it’s costs a fortune. Eamon Ryan really doesn’t want anyone to have a car at all”.
