Let this sink in and you wonder if it's all worth it.

Next time you fill up:

Look at the amount on the pump and ask yourself how much of that money actually belongs to you.

£57.87 spent on diesel at 197.9p a litre gets you just 29.24 litres.
Not exactly a massive tankful, but here's where it gets interesting.

That £57.87 doesn't just disappear into the fuel tank.

Around £15.49 of it is Fuel Duty, while another £9.81 is VAT.

So roughly £25.30 of the £57.87 you've just spent goes straight to the government in tax.

That's about 43% of the money you've just handed over at the pump.

And remember, you didn't get that £57.87 for free.

If you're an employee already paying the basic 20% Income Tax and 8% National Insurance on the relevant part of your earnings, you'd need to earn roughly £81.76 before tax to have around £57.87 left in your pocket to spend.

So you've already handed over roughly £22.89 before you've even driven to the petrol station.

Then you spend what's left on diesel and another £25.30 goes in tax.

Which means that out of the roughly £81.76 you had to earn in the first place, about £48.19 ends up going to the taxman between earning the money and putting 29.24 litres of diesel into your car.

That's nearly 59% of the original amount.

And this is where it gets nuts.

We're talking about less than 30 litres of fuel here.

We're not even adding Vehicle Excise Duty, insurance tax, MOT costs, parking charges, tolls or any of the other lovely little expenses that come with simply owning a car in Britain.

You earn the money.

You get taxed on the money.

You spend the remaining money on fuel.

Then you get taxed again when you buy the fuel.

At some point you have to wonder whether we're actually buying diesel or just renting it from the government.

How is this level of taxation on something millions of people need just to get to work, take the kids somewhere and go about their daily lives considered reasonable.

Motorists are being absolutely rinsed.
