Re: Strike Sparks Fuel Shortage
If anyone wants evidence of how today’s society has gone down the me, me, me, me, me road you only have to look at the times when there is a forthcoming shortage of something.
On the news last night it showed motorists filling up and also filling gallon cans. Talk about grabbing as much as you can for yourself and devil take the rest. It was also reported that some garages have upped their price to £1.35 per litre. Hopefully the Scottish motorists will have long memories and boycott those garages when sanity and fuel is restored.
The refinery was closed down before the strike started because of alleged security/safety issues. It was stated that it would be at least five days before full production is resumed once the strikers go back to work.
It was also stated that there was at least 7 days supplies of petrol and diesel available at normal usage.
I smell a rat! There is more to this issue than meets the eye.
