[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 7555587, member: 44728"] Yes. The constructions industry is one industry that could not claim that they would be undermined by foreign competition because you cant construct an entire building abroad and magically place it anywhere here. However, farming is a different matter. Food is something that could be grown abroad. If Red diesel was banned from UK Ag without some sort of rebate, Countries that still have a fuel rebate would have an unfair advantage. So unless at least the EU bans Red (or Green!) I can’t see the UK government banning it here. Or allowing farmers to claim a rebate for diesel used for Ag purpose. [/QUOTE]
