Possible petrol shortages!!
I have heard that there might be blockages like there was a few years ago when fuel became difficult to get and lots of queues to get it. Dont know how true this is but i have brimmed my tank just in case. Presumably its because of the hike in petrol prices. Dont shoot me if im wrong but you've been warned!!!!!

I guess I picked a nice time to book a week off work, since I won't need to drive anywhere......car was filled up on the way home from work earlier, had to pay the "nice" price of 99.9p per litre.

just finding my feet
why are people sooo fucking stupid
there gonna blockade the refinerys to show the governement and what actually happens is we all pnic buy MORE petrol just incas theres a blockade
ermmmmmmm havent ya just given the government EXTRA cash
i recon that the blockade is a marketing ploy from shell due to people moaning about the price of fuel and thinking of getting public transport to work,,,,,, they let out a rumor of a blockade and the they make septembers sales targets
if people are gonna risk what they can to help the people then support em by NOT buying poetrol and find another way to get about for a week
if NO ONE bought fuel for a week this country would fall to its knees and then the government would HAVE to sort it out
buying too much fuel before will only give them EXTRA cash that week due to ya all buying EXTRA fuel for no reason

My cars gonna be of the road for at least another year so i reckon they should increase fuel duty to at least Ł2 a litre and then do away with duty on alcohol

theres no point in blocking the renfierys. What you need to do is block thje governemnt.
Its the goevernment makes the price Ł1! its 3 times the basic proice for TAX! i thinkk peopel can understand thew governemnet making some money on tax. but 3 times is a piss take. I think if they scrap the road tax disc then I undersstamd paying Ł1 a liter. but I have to pay 170 quid a year for a piece of paper!
AND they said on tv that the governemnt is on holiday until October. And by then it will all be different so they wont do anything as usial.
