Last month i mentioned, petrol may go up by 10p a lt.
Well, January/February 2008 could be the start, of the petrol tanker drivers taking strike action?
All over the cost of fuel.
If i find out any more, i'll let you no, as i would have thought, all lorry company's would be participating?

lets hope it achieves something :y :y

Doubt it will achieve much. What can it achieve?
OPEC indirectly set the price, government hasn't the power to do too much about that.
Governement, and particularly that idiot of a Mayor, are hell bent on us getting electric cars because they think we are stupid enough to believe they are greener, so they will welcome petrol shortages, stating that it shows we need to reduce our reliance on oil

But it does have the power to reduce the big fat wedge of pie it takes by ways of taxation >:(

Not really, as when we are forced to have electric cars, they will remember how environmentally unfriendly they are and start taxing leccy.

Talk about crap service :(
