"They are also about the sickening chronic manipulation of pump prices and the complete lack of scrutiny by our out of touch Government, in allowing unchecked petrol and diesel profiteering to run rife.",The campaigner said the "self-proclaiming low taxation Conservative government" was "wallowing in £3 billion of extra VAT [Value-Added Tax] in just the last year alone" thanks to "these record unaffordable prices.","They continue to be in denial, a state of torpor and seem clueless in reducing the pain of the crippling cost of living crisis," Cox charged. "There are so many evidential examples of obvious pump price exploitation in the last 20 years, but during COVID years and since the onset of the Ukrainian crisis, the big fuel supply chain businesses have reached the lowest of lows in ripping off UK drivers at will."。 Filmmaker and actor Farhan Akhtar has been receiving praise for his recently released film, 120 Bahadur.
