Fuel prices: Only option is to remove the ANC from power
28 February 2023
With fuel prices going up once again at midnight tonight, faltering consumers are dealt another severe blow.
Seeing as the biggest reason for the increase is the poor rand, the only solution is to elect a new government in 2024, which can restore economic confidence.
Petrol will increase with R1,27 per litre and diesel with 31c or 31c, depending on the sulphur content.
Four factors determine this price: The international price of Brent crude oil; the value of the rand; administrated costs that reflect the transport of crude oil products from abroad and in South Africa; and taxes.
