When it comes to fuel prices should the islands be a special case?

Treasury Minister Danny Alexander is on Skye this morning to launch the Government's island fuel rebate scheme which sees a reduction of 5p per litre for those living on island communities.

Islander fuel campaigners say that the fuel rebate will make no difference to them after two price rises in a week so we'll be asking if the Scottish island should be a special case when it comes to fuel prices. Or with all of us being hit in the pocket when to comes to petrol, why should the islands get special treatment?
