http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/budget2007/bn53.htm Red duty is about 10p/l Full duty is about 58p/l So the maximum possible increase is in the order of 48p+VAT = 55p - that's the full duty rate (not a 60/40 split), a 60/40 split would be an increase of 60% of 48p = 28.8, and adding VAT = 33p. I don't see how anyone could make that £1.50 per litre.
