where costs for these supermarkets kits have risen. consider shaun bailey. and also it's interesting to look at the idea of supermarket kits compared to other fuel retailers . supermarkets have traditionally had lower prices subsidised by the rest of their operation to try and get customers as into their areas and shop in the rest of their business. perhaps that cross—subsidy has reduced ever so slightly as the input costs for food retailers in particular have gone up so much . it's not have gone up so much. it's not just inflation that we're seeing on the shelves, but it's also inflation in the production side of things that is affecting all areas of this too. so lots of different arguments on lots of different arguments on lots of different sides here, but ultimately , no one's better off. ultimately, no one's better off. and the solution, particularly to and the solution, particularly he the— and the solution, particularly he he heaveh— and the solution, particularly to the petrol problem, tom, is, is to the petrol problem, tom, is, he vhah— to the petrol problem, tom, is, he vhah hhhe— to the petrol problem, tom, is, is what this involves an app eheehhvehv— is what this involves an app effectively increasing transparency for the customer of

vhah— transparency for the customer of vhah hhee— transparency for the customer of vhah hhee he— transparency for the customer of what price is available . well what price is available. well he— what price is available. well he he— what price is available. well he he the— what price is available. well this is the proffered solution. no this is the proffered solution. ha ahe— this is the proffered solution. no one can really— this is the proffered solution. no one can really say- this is the proffered solution. no one can really say if- this is the proffered solution. no one can really say if it will work that well or not, but ultimately greater transparency. so that people can see the price at the pumps near them . there at the pumps near them. there are already a number of services that consumers can access to compare their the prices at various pumps in their local area or further afield in this country . but the there is no country. but the there is no sort of statutory backing to those services there. sometimes is a little bit out of date in terms of what the very latest price at the pump is and what the proposal is here is that it would be a statutory duty for any retailer of petrol or diesel to update their prices. so that everyone could see it in sort of one central system and people could know where to go to get the best price and facilitate that sort of competition. tom on the on the petrol, one of the problems, asda used to be the market leader with the

supermarkets often running petrol fuel sales as a loss leader. they've of course have new owners now— leader. they've of course have new owners now and- : they've of course have new owners now and those new owners own a lot— new owners now and those new owners own a lot of petrol ehahhehe. — owners own a lot of petrol ehahhehe. he— owners own a lot of petrol stations. is that- owners own a lot of petrol stations. is that part of where he— stations. is that part of where hhe-hae— stations. is that part of where the-has been?- stations. is that part of where the has been? they've the problem has been? they've put the problem has been? they've aah ahe— the problem has been? they've aah hhe hvheee— the problem has been? they've aah hhe hvheee ah— the problem has been? they've put the prices up and rather hhah— put the prices up and rather than another— put the prices up and rather than another supermarket that's eahhhhe—hhev-ve- cutting their prices, they've ahhhea— cutting their prices, they've drifted upwards to. “his drifted upwards to. yes, no doubt— drifted upwards to. yes, no doubt that— drifted upwards to. yes, no doubt that sort of loss leading cross—subsidy situation that we were seeing more of in previous years has reduced . and no doubt years has reduced. and no doubt asda has played a large part in that. asda has played a large part in that . but ultimately asda has played a large part in that. but ultimately i asda has played a large part in that . but ultimately i don't that. but ultimately i don't think we can pin the blame on one company or another here. the ability of companies to do that sort of cross—subsidisation of various elements of their business has got less as the general inflation picture that this country is suffering under has increased. of course , if you has increased. of course, if you look at the inputs going into supermarkets, the stuff that they buy wholesale, those those pnces they buy wholesale, those those prices are up and in some areas actually , if we look at, for

actually, if we look at, for example, bread , the price of example, bread, the price of bread on the shelves has risen by some degree, but not by as much as the price of wheat has at the input. so those costs are being absorbed beth mead somewhere perhaps by producers, perhaps by retailers, but ultimately it means that money is being squeezed out of the system and that means that the consumer at the end of it is worse off than we think. these retailers, supermarkets- s?" these retailers, supermarkets are eehhhahhhhg— retailers, supermarkets are complaining too much, tom. we've just complaining too much, tom. we've haeh eee— complaining too much, tom. we've iaeh heav— complaining too much, tom. we've just seen today sainsbury's ahheahehhe— just seen today sainsbury's announcing in— just seen today sainsbury's announcing in the last quarter eahee— announcing in the last quarter eahee hy— announcing in the last quarter sales rose by 10,— announcing in the last quarter sales rose by 10, 9.8, 10% eheehhvehv— sales rose by 10, 9.8, 10% effectively . _ sales rose by 10, 9.8, 10% effectively . “his " c sales rose by 10, 9.8, 10%- effectively . yes, i haven't seen effectively. yes, i haven't seen if that is sales by product volume or sales by cash volume . volume or sales by cash volume. of course, if it's sales, just in money terms, that would likely be expected given the general fluid food inflation environment that we've seen in the country. what we do know, however, is that comes the tories, particularly

supermarkets run a very small margin of profit compared to lots of other industries. typically between 2 and 3% is the profit margin for supermarkets. and they make money by simply selling a lot of stuff rather than selling less stuff rather than selling less stuff at a higher profit . so stuff at a higher profit. so this is quite a competitive market as things stand . that's market as things stand. that's our deputy political— g; : that's our deputy political editor , gs : that's our deputy political editor , tom our deputy political editor, tom havveea. — our deputy political editor, tom harwood. thanks— our deputy political editor, tom harwood. thanks for talking to hem.— harwood. thanks for talking to hem. aha— harwood. thanks for talking to hem. aha h— harwood. thanks for talking to tom. and i think— harwood. thanks for talking to tom. and i think we'll be hahhhhe— tom. and i think we'll be hahhhhe he— tom. and i think we'll be talking to him- tom. and i think we'll be talking to him a little later in the talking to him a little later in he programme.— talking to him a little later in the programme, too. that's hehh— the programme, too. that's hghh. — the programme, too. that's hghh. sa— the programme, too. that's right. cox g o“ the programme, too. that's right. so continuing on this this issue actually about motorist, it's being used as cash responding the cash cows is responding to the report . energy secretary grant report. energy secretary grant shapps wasn't right shapps has said it wasn't right that four supermarkets that the big four supermarkets asda, tesco and asda, morrisons, tesco and sainsbury's were making tens of millions off the back of hard working people. well, joining us hevhhhe— working people. well, joining us hevhhhg joining— working people. well, joining us morning joining us— working people. well, joining us morning joining us this- g well, joining us morning joining us this morning for morning joining us this morning her—heave- for more on this petrol profiteering- for more on this petrol- profiteering-consumer profiteering is the consumer heavhahheh— profiteering is the consumer heavhahheh ah— profiteering is the consumer journalist at wallop. journalist at harry wallop. harry— journalist at harry wallop. hahv hhvee— journalist at harry wallop. harry three supermarkets we were hahhhhe — harry three supermarkets we were hahhhhe eavhhev— harry three supermarkets we were talking earlier to— harry three supermarkets we were talking earlier to tom harwood, as talking earlier to tom harwood, ae vea— talking earlier to tom harwood, ae you knew.— talking earlier to tom harwood, as you know, often— talking earlier to tom harwood, as you know, often around petrol haeh— as you know, often around petrol haeh ae—

substantial amount. so asda has tripled the amount of margin it makes on petrol and morrisons have doubled it now from quite a low base admittedly, but none the less, that is a big, big deal the less, that is a big, big deal. and crucially the other supermarkets are just as much to blame because instead of trying to compete on low prices, they thought, well , we'll just drift thought, well, we'll just drift up our prices to an they've been found out, haven't they, by the competition authority for charging consumers an extra 6pa litre. that works out . litre. that works out. apparently— c so that works out. apparently the sales over the vea— apparently the sales over the veav eh— apparently the sales over the year of heavhv— apparently the sales over the year of nearly £1— apparently the sales over the year of nearly £1 billion. harry.— year of nearly £1 billion. hahv. hhah-e— year of nearly £1 billion. harry, that's a- year of nearly £1 billion. harry, that's a lot of extra money— harry, that's a lot of extra money gehhg— harry, that's a lot of extra money going h- harry, that's a lot of extra money going in the supermarket. it's money going in the supermarket. hh-e hack— money going in the supermarket. it's back pocket— money going in the supermarket. it's back pocket . _ money going in the supermarket. it's back pocket . you?" it's back pocket. yeah, absolutely. it's . £900 million absolutely. it's. £900 million over a three year period and diesel drivers did even worse this year . diesel drivers did even worse this year. they really have been pred this year. they really have been ripped off. now, you know, as as as tom said earlier, the supermarkets will claim, well, look, you know, we are we are a publicly owned companies. we have to make money. and we were being hammered by food inflation. so we decided to make

supermarkets not forced to supermarkets are not forced to give it's kind of give their data. it's kind of done by third party, but it done by a third party, but it does how dramatically does show how dramatically different of petrol different the prices of petrol can be in certain areas. so you need to, you know, we do need to, you know, use our wallets and give our custom to companies that are going to sell cheaper petrol than elsewhere . the issue petrol than elsewhere. the issue of course with petrol is it just became less competitive . the became less competitive. the fact that asda decided not to compete on price, just just just destroyed the market. i hear what you say about- destroyed the market. i hear what you say about the - i hear what you say about the app, tom. hheve— what you say about the app, tom. hheve ae— what you say about the app, tom. there are some— what you say about the app, tom. there are some people like me who— there are some people like me who aah-h— there are some people like me who can't stand— there are some people like me who can't stand all these apps aha— who can't stand all these apps and hm— who can't stand all these apps and i'm thinking— who can't stand all these apps and i'm thinking of a lot of awe— and i'm thinking of a lot of ehaev heehhe— and i'm thinking of a lot of older people listening to this program— older people listening to this program watching on tv program and watching it on tv hhhhh— program and watching it on tv hhhhh-ae— program and watching it on tv hhhhh-ae appe- program and watching it on tv think-do apps. so- program and watching it on tv think do apps. so how is think i don't do apps. so how is hhah— think i don't do apps. so how is hhah going— think i don't do apps. so how is hhah going he— think i don't do apps. so how is that going to help— think i don't do apps. so how is that going to help me? �*ssoxc that going to help me? well, i hhhhh— that going to help me? well, i hhhhh ah— that going to help me? well, i think an increasing number of people and they've sort of people do, and they've sort of built into their satnavs on their car. what we can see, hopefully, is what you see in europe, which is billboards on the side of road which the side of the road which display the forthcoming display all the forthcoming petrol and say the next petrol stations and say the next 50 and the prices right 50 miles and the prices right now at the petrol station in the

uk, you pull into a motorway service station. it's only when you pull in, you see that they're trying charge, they're trying to charge, i don't know, £1.83 for unleaded. you oh, my gosh. you you think, oh, my gosh. but you know, a nearly empty know, you've got a nearly empty tank. turned tank. you've already turned off the you be the motorway. you can't be bothered back on for bothered to go back on for another 15 miles in the hope. but not the certainty. you might another 15 miles in the hope. but cheaper certainty. you might another 15 miles in the hope. but cheaper petrol. ty. you might another 15 miles in the hope. but cheaper petrol. so you might another 15 miles in the hope. but cheaper petrol. so it's might another 15 miles in the hope. but cheaper petrol. so it's all|ht get cheaper petrol. so it's all about transparency. if the about transparency. see if the companies forced to display companies are forced to display their petrol in real time on as many different platforms as possible, be it on billboard possible, be it on a billboard or be it on an app. it will force people to drive to the cheaper supermarket and they will the and others will get the custom and others hopefully prices to hopefully will cut prices to follow suit . one of the follow suit. one of the downsides,— follow suit. one of the downsides, of- . one of the downsides, of course, if the eahehhavheh— downsides, of course, if the supermarket-all. downsides, of course, if the. supermarket-all this supermarket is selling all this heaven.— supermarket is selling all this heae-savv— supermarket is selling all this heaveh-sehv .— supermarket is selling all this petrol. sorry , harry is petrol. tom sorry, harry is i he— petrol. tom sorry, harry is i he heehea— petrol. tom sorry, harry is i just looked figure just looked at this figure heav— just looked at this figure heaav. heae— just looked at this figure today. more than 4000 independent- today. more than 4000 independent petrol stations have eheeea— independent petrol stations have eheeea h— independent petrol stations have eheeea hh ahe— independent petrol stations have closed in the last— independent petrol stations have closed in the last 12 years and hhah-e— closed in the last 12 years and hhah-e a— closed in the last 12 years and hhah-e a veah— closed in the last 12 years and that's a real blow.— closed in the last 12 years and that's a real blow. these are ehahh— that's a real blow. these are small businesses— that's a real blow. these are small businesses that used to be the small businesses that used to be he haehhehe— small businesses that used to be the backbone of— small businesses that used to be the backbone of the country . the backbone of the country. yeah.— the backbone of the country. veah. h— the backbone of the country. veah. h mean— the backbone of the country. yeah, i mean, that— the backbone of the country. yeah, i mean, that is,- the backbone of the country. yeah, i mean, that is, you know, thatis yeah, i mean, that is, you know, that is a real issue. absolutely so supermarkets about 15 years ago had about a third of the

whole petrol market and now it's nearly half of the petrol market. it's, you know , despite market. it's, you know, despite what we're saying about petrol, it used to be quite difficult to make money out of petrol. you'd make money out of petrol. you'd make money out of petrol. you'd make money selling the make your money from selling the newspapers and the fizzy drinks alongside petrol and, and alongside the petrol and, and the supermarkets muscled in. they did cut prices and it is worth pointing out that even though asda has been named as the bad boy in this report, they are still the cheapest place to get petrol. just not get petrol. they're just not that cheaper than they, you that much cheaper than they, you know, others know, than all the others compared previously . but compared with previously. but yeah, independents have left the market that's made less market and that's made it less competitive. know, competitive. and that, you know, you know, we need competition. competition as a general competition works as a general rule. it just failed in this instance. yeah. okay brilliant. thank instance. yeah. okay brilliant. hhahh veh— instance. yeah. okay brilliant. hhahh you. has.— instance. yeah. okay brilliant. thank you, harry. harry- c / osage brilliant. thank you, harry. harry wallop there.— thank you, harry. harry wallop there, consumer— thank you, harry. harry wallop there, consumer expert. you knew.— there, consumer expert. you knew. my— there, consumer expert. you know, my family— there, consumer expert. you know, my family business growing up know, my family business growing ah vae— know, my family business growing up a— know, my family business growing ah a garage.— know, my family business growing up was a garage. was it really my grandfather— up was a garage. was it really my grandfather father started vhhh— my grandfather father started vhhh a— my grandfather father started with a bucket— my grandfather father started with a bucket of— my grandfather father started with a bucket of fuel in like me— with a bucket of fuel in like 1920 something— with a bucket of fuel in like 1920 something and thought , i 1920 something and thought, i hhhhh— 1920 something and thought, i hhhhh hheee— 1920 something and thought, i think these cars— 1920 something and thought, i think these cars are going to each— think these cars are going to eaheh — think these cars are going to catch on. well,—

we're looking closely at the financial services industry in general because we are launching this campaign on don't kill cash. why because we've had so many emails and tweets and letters from gb news viewers and listeners that they are sick and tired, that they can't use cash anymore. and clearly there are big vested interests who don't use cash because it costs businesses money to handle cash . there's the counting of it. there's the security aspects of it . and also, if we're using it. and also, if we're using a lot less cash, then that means there's more so—called surveys science, capitalism, where the banks can follow your patterns of expenditure . the internet of expenditure. the internet companies can follow your patterns of expenditure. and then of course, that data can be sold to third party companies who are interested in marketing. and if you take it to its retreat— and if you take it to its logical conclusion and you have a logical conclusion and you have u eenubn— logical conclusion and you have u eenurn rube— logical conclusion and you have u eenurn mbe er— logical conclusion and you have a certain type of government mer— a certain type of government rnur neme— a certain type of government that wants to _ a certain type of government that wants to be _ a certain type of government that wants to be more authoritarian - that wants to be more authoritarian in collaboration unn— authoritarian in collaboration nun rbe— authoritarian in collaboration with the banks— authoritarian in collaboration with the banks ,_ authoritarian in collaboration with the banks , they can stop with the banks, they can stop your— with the banks, they can stop your access to _ with the banks, they can stop your access to buying the things mer— your access to buying the things met you— your access to buying the things but you mum.— your access to buying the things met you went. r— your access to buying the things that you want. i mean, that's unbr— that you want. i mean, that's unur nubbene— that you want. i mean, that's what happens in— that you want. i mean, that's what happens in china. 3“r:3«r

what happens in china. they nbsbbureby— what happens in china. they absolutely can— what happens in china. they absolutely can stop access to things that you want to buy. they can introduce like they can introduce things like social credit where your social credit systems where your behaviour or behaviour determines whether or not i'm not not you can spend. i'm not saying british saying that the british government wants to do that, but there certainly are there are certainly there are certainly some certainly signs of that in some asian countries, not least china, you say. just china, as you say. but just looking the numbers, looking up the numbers, let's have a look at some of the numbers here when it comes to the extent you've got one of your cashless. your graphics are cashless. hugh, liam drum hugh, it's a liam graphic drum roll. so back in 2012, 60% of transactions cash and transactions used cash and you'll remember even five years ago, my wallet always had cash in it. i still does. i knew. i knew almost exactly how much cash had wallet. cash i had in my wallet. i couldn't tell you now because now in 2022, the latest numbers, these from uk finance, these are from uk finance, a very authoritative industry body, just 30% of transactions have used cash . i mean, that's have used cash. i mean, that's that's that's unreal . and the that's that's unreal. and the prediction from uk finance is that by 2035, we're going to be looking at less than 10% of transactions using cash. i think that's optimistic and on top of

that, since 2018 and we're not telling a lot of people here stuff they don't know. 20% of atms, those automatic teller machines where you can get cash , the hole in the wall, if you like, 20% of them have closed . like, 20% of them have closed. so who does this affect? this really affects people without bank accounts, there are 10 or 15% of households in the uk. they're called unbanked. they haven't got the credentials or the wherewithal. unfortunately or the id to or the income to warrant a bank account. it's the little old lady with huge respect who's trying to park in a market town and a little old car. yeah. and you know, she hasn't got a smartphone. you've got a download a million different apps you need to be on wi—fi, wi—fi hotspot . what's wi—fi, wi—fi hotspot. what's that? i don't know . and so lots that? i don't know. and so lots of people, particularly elderly people or just people in people orjust people in a hurry, they end up getting parking tickets. they're perfectly but perfectly willing to pay, but they to get on an app or they have to get on an app or they have to get on an app or they drive back home and that means the shops are losing business they the business or they go to the supermarket out and

increasingly difficult to only take cash . i'm having to stand take cash. i'm having to stand with punters outside cash points . i can't charge them when i'm, you know, i'm waiting for them to pay me. but every single time the cabbie takes the money, that card company gets a percentage andifs card company gets a percentage and it's a high percentage. so when i ask you about one 3“ so when i ask you about one other issue, because of— when i ask you about one other issue, because of course, this issue, because of course, this be beer— issue, because of course, this be beer re— issue, because of course, this be beer to ue— issue, because of course, this is dear to us here— issue, because of course, this is dear to us here on gb news ubeeb— is dear to us here on gb news ubgeb bunge— is dear to us here on gb news nigel farage having his bank account— nigel farage having his bank account closed— nigel farage having his bank account closed down. seven other bunke— account closed down. seven other beme-ne— account closed down. seven other benbe-ne-em— account closed down. seven other banks-no _off. we- account closed down. seven other banks no off. we know banks say no clear off. we know mur— banks say no clear off. we knowi rnur—ubeur that dominic lawson wrote about this that dominic lawson wrote about mbe—nub— this in the daily mail yeererbuy— this in the daily mail yesterday, his 16 year old down eynbreme— yesterday, his 16 year old down syndrome daughter denied a bank account— syndrome daughter denied a bank recount-ner— syndrome daughter denied a bank account her grandfather syndrome daughter denied a bank accothe her grandfather syndrome daughter denied a bank accothe former her grandfather syndrome daughter denied a bank accothe former her g|checkerar was the former chance checker ubgeb—bbmeel nigel lawson. even the times rney-ve— nigel lawson. even the times rney-ve-u— nigel lawson. even the times rney-ve-e beue- nigel lawson. even the times they've a lead today saying they've done a lead today saying it's they've done a lead today saying br-e eer— they've done a lead today saying be got re— they've done a lead today saying me get to ebb.— they've done a lead today saying it's got to stop. how have they been— it's got to stop. how have they been-re— it's got to stop. how have they been-re ger- it's got to stop. how have they been-to get away- it's got to stop. how have they been to get away with it been allowed to get away with it for been allowed to get away with it fer-boner— been allowed to get away with it rerlbenge — been allowed to get away with it rerlbenge rbe— been allowed to get away with it for-long? it's a— been allowed to get away with it for long? . t rt. for so long? it's a classic case, andrew, of computer says no, you need human no, and you need human intervention the intervention to say actually the computer case, computer is wrong. in this case, you know, the down syndrome granddaughter deceased granddaughter of a deceased chancellor. a very chancellor. i mean, just a very distinguished. absolutely insane that distinguished. absolutely insane mar-young— distinguished. absolutely insane that-young person- r: 9 : absolutely insane that young person should be that that young person should be benbeb— that that young person should be benbeb u— that that young person should be benbeb a bent— that that young person should be denied a bank account. nbebbureby— denied a bank account. absolutely insane. - denied a bank account. absolutely insane. you know, that our colleague, nigel farage
