Is it Legal



Any legal experts out there???

Heard a rumour that what the government is doing currently may not be legal
in European Law.

Petrol Prices. We are being taxed on tax. The true cost of petrol is 24
pence per litre with an additional 58 pence (approx) of Government Tax.
Then the Government is adding VAT to the petrol and ITS TAX. That is
therefore Taxing Tax....... Is that Legal ??????

Let me know
