Galp's Hidden Prices

Record profits for Petrogal, taking advantage of the motorist and its dominant market position.

How would the profits look if Galp stations advertised their prices like other companies. When prices started rising, they covered the advertised prices with a picture of an alien, which has been there ever since!

Galp's prices are consistently higher than others. How can they get away with this cover-up? Hasn't Deco, the consumer watchdog, complained?

No point asking what the Government's role is in this - just look at the number of political appointees at Petrogal...
