Default Fuel blockade required

Just been to fill the ST up and fuels gone up again,
This fucking government in particular Alistair Darling wants fucking with a shovel hard in the face. They are really taking the piss now, spoke to the girl in the petrol station and she said the are averaging 6 drive offs a day. Its going to be like mad max soon in this country. Thieving government bastards but i suppose there expensive have to be paid for some how

We need another fuel blockade and this time bring the country to a complete stop. This bunch a so called advisers and officials couldn't manage a fucking sweet shop let alone a country

Rant over!

fuel blockade wouldnt make any difference.

People still need fuel so they panick buy, delay journeys till after the blockade etc. The petrol company wont loose a penny. Only the economy and us will take a hit if theres a blockade.

You havent heard of any big oil companies posting a loss in this recession have you??

Remember these oil companys are more powerful than the EU so what the hell do you think can really be done?? fuck all thats what!!!

The price of Fuel goes up the less we buy ..

The Blockades a few year back nearly toppled the Labour GOV ..

The Haulage companys (Real people who get fucked when Fuel Rises) They need to step in again, I mean total Blackage this time .. They do it in France and it gets results.

Problem is: People Complain but never do nowt about it ..

I know up here people stopped driving as much, I walked where I could and half as much fuel in per week. The only legal way to protest is leave your car at home if you can they'll soon lower it again with half amounts being bought

The GOV needs the Duty from Fuel .. The less we use the more it costs as they cannot afford to stock pile fuel ...

They may not have made a loss but profits are down MASSIVELY and have been for the past 18 months or so.

The majority of oil companies are actually in debt most of the time due to the cost of exploration for oil, non profit making investments (refinery upgrades due to legislations for emissions etc, safety improvements, repair/maintenance etc etc) its only when that off chance arises and they do discover oil somewhere, some of the debts are paid off with the subsequent refinement and sale of that oil(s) then the cycle of searching for oil (and paying for those searches) begins again.

As Jeremy Clarkson said on Top Gear said a year or so, Oil companies have to build a drilling rig, float it out to sea, drill a hole... then drill another... then another until they find oil. Then extract the oil, pump it into a super tanker, sail it half way around the world to a refinery. Refine it then put into road tankers and then deliver it to forecourts all for about 20p a litre. Not a lot really when you consider this inept Labour government takes about 80p ish just because "they can"

and yes, I do work for an oil company

Fuel is costing more to buy at a wholesale level and also the weak pound isn't helping either

to add, its also costing the refineries more per barrel to refine oil, so that increased cost gets passed onto the forecourts.

Why does it cost more all of a sudden or are we just being told this because if it were me selling and i could see some wankers making 80% on top of my product i might try and push my price up a bit!!

I wouldnt mind paying the prices for it if we got something back!
Most of the tax is to discourage us form driving, but the thing is what do we have as alternative?... trains that cant run over leaves, always fecking late, and cost more than paying the queen for a pig back to where your going.
I'm not even going to start on the state of the roads out there!

Our Government are thieving, cheating cunts! making us pay for the fucking second homes, cars and fucking swimming pools!
Bailing out their fuck ups with the banks!
And worst off, millions of workers coming here and send the money they earn out of the country!

dont start me on that sending money out of country. If we stop them all coming in we would have more jobs for us. let me see you let polls in, they work for less money meaning we are out of jobs, the tax the polls pay if not on cash is less to the government because they earn less and send there money home so it dont help our economey, your English bloke is on dole etc costing the government more money. If no polls, English work, meaning no hand out's, higher tax paid, money spent in our economey out of recession. Gordon says we need these people here, well Gordon your a thick cunt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
