The French are punished by supply interruptions at service stations.
Thus, the government continues the discount of 30 centimes/l at gas stations until mid-November.@TotalEnergies also extends its discount of 20 centimes/l for the same period. pic.twitter.com/u7EdYWGliB

It was expected that after the end of the 30-cent discount on November 16, fuel prices would literally soar. After all, this has happened to some of our neighbors, especially in Germany, where gas prices have increased significantly. And finally, while we also have gasoline and diesel prices slightly higher, this increase was much more measured than expected. And what’s even better, the amounts billed at service stations have even gone down in recent weeks. Very good news, as the 10 cent discount will also expire soon, until December 31st.

Diesel is falling
Like every week, Ministry of Ecological Transition reveals updated fuel prices. And that’s still good news because it doesn’t work. Granted, it’s obviously lightweight and doesn’t allow for a return to 2020 post-containment levels, but that’s always nice. And this time, drivers of diesel cars can be happy. Really, diesel lost no less than 8.8 cents compared to the previous week per liter, which stands at 1.732 euros. If it is still more expensive than gasoline, the gap is much smaller than before.
Gasoline too
But that’s not all, as gasoline also fell, a slight drop of 5.5 euro cents compared to last week. In general, liter of unleaded 95 E10 then exchanges for €1.6397, which is much more reasonable. The amount is almost identical to what was recorded when the 30-cent discount was still in effect. But beware, because the allowance will soon disappear to make way for a €100 allowance paid only to the most humble workers who need a car to get to work.
I am introducing a bill aimed at reducing gasoline taxes in the face of record high fuel prices and taxing oil company dividends.
