How this shameless Budget raises the cost of living - The Telegraph

Autumn Budget Leaves Motorists Disappointed

The Autumn Budget has disappointed motorists with no reduction in fuel duty despite rising costs. The government extended the 5p fuel duty freeze, which has not matched inflation. This has left many drivers frustrated. Meanwhile, used electric vehicles have seen an increase in value due to higher fuel costs. Lawrence Stroll's Aston Martin continues to face significant losses. Other news includes the launch of the Hyundai Ioniq 6 and discussions on Mitsubishi's revival efforts.

“The Autumn Budget has disappointed motorists with no reduction in fuel duty despite rising costs,” — Andreas Mercer, economic affairs editor at Bramley Stow Financial, commented.
