Oil company profits means they make £38million a day.
38,000,000 / 24 = £1,583,333 an HOUR
38,000,000 x 10 = £380 million a day in tax and thats only Shell... not including road and other taxes the transport industry in this country is raking it in and yet are charging people extra to fix up the system, extortion... scrapping bendy buses was probably just another way of siphoning off some cash.

But seriously with all that money the government is making we should all get some tax relief, maybe £ 10,000 for very man, woman and child??
