Could potentially lead to no fuel for large parts of the UK for up to a month if it doesnt get sorted.

Could do with a fuel strike over prices to be fair though.

Its just a scare so we all go panic buying and loads of fuel gets sold.

Its only a shortage, Not a halt on fuel.

Fuel has went up 3p here since sunday, how the fuck can they justify that.

Steve is also apparently banned and you have all to stop using his phrases when he's not about.

I'm suprised John, for someone who picks up on spelling mistakes so quickly.

I didnt say it was a spelling mistake I simply higlighted his sharpness when it comes to correcting mistakes by others (spelling was simply an example)

After various discussions I have been told it should be has gone up, I would say went in normal speech though and everybody else who reads it knows what I mean so i'll let you away with pulling me up although i'd have kept it for something more obvious tbh.

Ben, you don't seem to realise. Some of us need a car to commute yet get paid pennies until fully qualified. I put in more that i can afford and have to if i want a career.

I personally think that if you commute, you should get some sort of tax rebate.

What Ben is saying is, No-one is forcing you to have a car. Its more of a privelage than a need.
If you want a car then pay the cost.

If i don't have a job, i'll be screwing the system for benefits. I can't get the train to work, it would take 3 - 4 hours each way. Try looking at it that way.

I don't mind paying £1 a litre, but it's now creaping towards £1.10. Bit of a joke now..

Fuel prices rise, so do general living expences. Another thing you bunch of retards need to realise. It just annoys me that no-one can see this!
