Local MP Adam Price has spoken of his disappointment that the Government has rejected his calls for the establishment of a fuel regulator.
A Plaid proposal had intended to provide relief for motorists and industry from soaring fuel prices.
Mr Price says he is especially disappointed that the proposals were rejected as hauliers prepare for further demonstrations as fuel prices continue to push their businesses to the brink of financial ruin.
"I am hugely disappointed that this measure was not supported by the Government," he said.
"I feel bitterly disappointed for haulier companies that have been in contact with me stressing the trouble they have had keeping pace with the cost of petrol."
"The establishing of a fuel regulator, which was fully supported by the Road Haulage Association, would have made a real difference to the cost of living not just of businesses but for everyone."

So lets have no more Crocodile tears or cheap publicity stunts Mr Price. We don't need them. What we need is the British National Party who are the only party that would reduce fuel tax, withdraw from Europe,get our borders back, make our farmers welcome again by aiming for greater self sufficiency and most importantly spending OUR taxes on OUR people in OUR country.
