Ah come on now, I'm sure we can find some other excuse.

In 10 years time we will probably look back and say "wow wasn't fuel cheap in 2022"

 

It can't be that expensive going by the vast numbers of people who are driving up from down south in campervans/sportscars, just to race round the NC500 in 2 or 3 days, barely stopping to take in the view, then drive all the way home again

No. Sharpen them and make ready. Everybody being screwed equally is not the solution.

Well there have been plenty of folk warning about government overreach during the plandemic and of course nearly everyone has had their terrified little ears shut.. some would say this is just a taste of what's to come as power grabbers around the world pass unchallenged laws to restrict peoples freedoms.. but hey ho.. who cares as their letting us go for a pint again👎

Seriously! You think an injunction will stop protests. The government are the minority here. If everyone got together nationwide they would listen. Governments like to see what they can get away with. Covid made them realise they can actually restrict and rip us off over and over and we sit back and suck it up, but if enough people stood up then things would change.

Just read that tonight about the High court order at the shell garage just down road from me its stuck on the door at eye level so you cant miss it , it reads like they was expecting something from the British public but it all so allows them to put fuel up to what ever they want !!
