All Inclusive Ticket Prices

I know this has been covered before on this forum, but when will airlines finally start advertising the price that you will pay, rather than these misleading "free" flights. I have noticed BA have done well on their website.

However I just booked a flight from MAN to STR on HLX which was advertised as 0 pounds (valentines promo) each way. The taxes and charges come up to a stonking 47 squid! (Still cheap for a round trip to STR) I know Ryanair have long been slated on this, but on this occasion I think they are being much fairer. Taxes and charges on a "free" FR flight (say to DUB) work out miles cheaper! This too after acknowledging that the taxes at STR are actually lower than at DUB!

At what point are the T's and C's actually seen to be contributing to profit?

Wasn't there supposed to be some official ruling on this sometime?
