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

Officially, the small discount on fuel is no more, and it has been for several days. Indeed, on December 31, the government canceled the 10-cent discount, as announced several months ago. No extension this time, as was the case with the 30-cent discount that ended on November 16. Therefore, from now on motorists must pay the full price, and TotalEnergies also put an end to this small gesture, increasing from 20 centimes to 10 centimes also in November. But should we expect new help in the coming months? Let’s summarize!
I am introducing a bill aimed at reducing gasoline taxes in the face of record high fuel prices and taxing oil company dividends.

State aid
The good news is that the government is planning to introduce new aid soon. But be careful, because this one is not for everyone! Indeed, it is the indemnity that will take shapetransfer of 100 euros will be reserved for only the humblest workers who need a car to get to work. Then the latter will have to prove a taxable income of less than 14,000 euros per year. Assistance can be assigned to several members of the same household. To use it, you will have to contact the tax office directly. This device will start from January 16 the next nationwide.

A gesture from the distributors
But distributors could also set up operations to help motorists. TotalEnergies could be on the way to a new discount as CEO Patrick Poignant said that “we must target and help the french people who need their car“. But nothing has been decided yet. At Leclerc, fuel operation at cost could also return in the next few months as his boss hinted at the idea of ”making a move” a few weeks ago.
