    Fuel protests are coming

    Here we go again:lol:

    Iran could be the answer to the problem. Anyone know what Irans oil stockpile is like? It would be rude not to attack Iran for its oil while were in the area.

    I hope the country is brought to a standstill for a very long time... the last protest was over before it got interesting.

    We need to take our cues from the French when it comes to showing the government that the people mean business :)

    this lining is more a dull grey lining, that shimmers now and again, infrequently.

    they did chuff all last time... can't see them making much difference. it's panic buying by the larger companies... it's like mums and christams - asda ends up heaving with people buying mountains of aunt bessie's yorkshire puddings and every loaf on the shelfs JUST IN CASE.

    phah!

    They will be knocking this on the head. The gov has got the cash it wanted by the price of fuel going up. Then again we do have a war to pay for, so they may still whack it on.
