From: Bromhead, Peter, 1933- :Digital cartoons

Reference: DCDL-0016366

Description: A highway man yells 'Stand and deliver' as he makes threatening gestures with the nozzles of two fuel pumps. The text 'fuel prices' and 'Highway robbery time again... ' appears above the image. Context; allowing for the exchange rate, the net imported cost of petrol has risen 15% since 1 December 2010, with the cost of diesel up 12%. As a result, this has led to a 15c rise in the pump price of petrol since then, and 12c for diesel. Petrol prices rose 2 cents per litre on 17 January, and diesel 3c, the first rise since before Christmas. In spite of a relatively strong exchange rate - up about US2c since the last price rise on 22 December - the latest increase reflects continuing rises in the commodity price of crude oil, which has climbed US$10 a barrel since mid-December, reaching as high as US$100/barrel (it averaged around US$80/barrel through most of 2010).
