I've heard talk recently of some sort of rural fuel subsidy. What does this entain and what types of fuel are under consideration and for which consumers?

What rural fuel subsidy is the government considering?

There was a Lib Dem proposal to discount petrol/diesel in very rural areas such as the Scottish Highlands. I doubt this will be included in the coalition plans since the tories voted against it for the 2008 Finance Bill.
Oh, no discount for home heating oil, then :(
MM
Well no, because that price doesn't differ quite as much in rural areas

But we don't have the choice that others do who are on mains gas.
