I woudnt trust anything that comes out of Danny Boy's gob....Talk about selling out to the Tories just so he can sit on the front bench in Westminster!!!!

I hope the people of Inverness see sense at the next election and put him on the scrapheap....As for cheap fuel, dont hold your breath!!

cheap fuel to go with the cheap electric promised to get workers from England to work at Dounreay in the 1950`s and 60`s.

I don`t think it will come to anything, but feel free to prove me wrong Mr Alexander..........you know you want to.

As a local, I'd like to pay less for fuel, but looking at the point of view of those living elsewhere I can see an element of unfairness.

I'll also be sceptical and say that I doubt any reduction in fuel duty would be passed on in its entirety to the consumer. As with the air discount scheme, I can see the petrol stations adding a bit of profit onto the prices after any discount.
