Drago's murder deathkill slaughter massacre panic petrol buying watch!!!

The government are talking b******s!
Or local Sainsbury's has run out again so that will more than likely mean that Morrison's will be empty and so will the other filling stations .

I wish those Insulate Britain peeps would come and sit on the roundabout on the M4 .

The government always talks bo**cks, nothing new there.

Filled up in Morrisions in Sheffield this morning ... no queue, no drama .... nice jam doughnuts .... don’t see what the problem is ...

The problem is clearly that you car is about to break down
you are supposed to put petrol/diesel in the tank - NOT jam doughnuts!!!


QUick survey coming back from the market just now
Morrisons - no queue - pumps open and several empty
Tesco - seemed quite busy but working
Esso - no queue - most pumps empty and open

Look to me as if the governments action in recruiting military driver has sorted it all out

Good job he did - he left home thinking he had loads left but when he got to the station he managed to get loads in!

The AA did some maths a while back, and for them the results seemed plausible for a change. They calculated that rises in fuel duty had gone past the break-even point, and any further rises would actually bring in less revenue, not more, as people tried to avoid it with ever more economical cars and simply driving less.

Brilliant! Wasn't that a major (excuse the pun) point of the fuel duty escalator, to encourage faster modal and technological change to smaller vehicles like e-bikes and cleaner ones like EVs, so the UK would be world leaders instead of laggards? But Gordon Brown chickened out and froze it, then George Osborne completely undermined it and scrapped it, two in a series of seriously planet-harming finance ministers. (not party political because they have all done it so far)

Im not against it at all, although before cranking it further the government need a plan to replace the missing revenue.

I have a longish drive at the weekend so needed to fill up, I have been putting it off for obvious reasons, I use the local Morrisons for petrol it is the worst set out you can imagine, queue's at the best of times causing chaos with traffic, so I was pleasantly surprised, only two of us there, the least busy fillup ever.

 

[Dolorous Edd]

the least busy fillup ever.

Presumably because most people now have full tanks

I obviously don’t have the right genes as money burns a hole in my pocket!

You need jeans with fireproof pockets.
