Pearse Doherty: “There is no way that Sinn Féin will stand by and allow that to happen when these fuels prices are increased.”

We cannot control the cost of international fuel. But the one thing we can control is how much tax we apply.

Last week, Electric Ireland raised their prices, and there wasn't a peep out of you in Government"

I don’t want to see them but I will stand with them if the Government refuses to listen and decide to push up the price of petrol and diesel. I believe it is unacceptable and I rightly believe there will be protests if that is the case.
