Credit where it's due, by luck or judgement, this 'regime change', coupled with the change of management in Venezuela, will significantly impact the availability of fuel in Russia and to a point, China.

Yes definitely China. This is part of Trumpy's plan to contain China, to restrict their fuel supplies and as you rightly point out was one of the reasons to go into Venezuela. Xi is nervous about this and has already told Iran to reopen the Straights of Hormuz.

Russia no. They have plenty of their own supplies and as long as they can keep their refineries working they will have no problems with fuel availability.  Zelenskyy might have other ideas though. 

Had we been involved from the get go, things may well have been done by now...

I assume this is tongue firmly in cheek? 

In part. If the best that our wet fag, I mean rag, of an excuse for a leader can muster is two facelifted Lynx and 4 Typhoons, then we may as well give up.

Crude oil market has opened, with Brent Crude opening at $81.27 from Friday's close at $73.14! 

It's already fallen back to $78.60 though.

Brent Crude now at $76.72.  I filled up this morning and diesel was £1.399 in Tesco.

Keeping warm next winter might be a bit pricy though as UK natural gas futures are up 45%! 

Brent is now trading at $92.69, heading straight towards $100. If it stops there, I'll be happy, but it has the potential to reach much higher.

Put it in a vice, connect a compressed air line, and see how far you can shoot the piston.

Our big ship might have made a very small difference, if it was seaworthy.

The MOEX, the Russian stock market, is the only one that's been steadily rising this week. We'll soon be stopping Russia's shadow fleet because we need the oil.

What with?     

 

Thanks for the info. standard shocks incoming 

this certainly sounds internal .never seen this before .
also if if is internal then the air bladder should be soft and squashy .if its rock hard then its the air inlet that is blocked .very unlikely i know but easy enough to see .

Not petrol prices, but our heating oil has gone from around 58-60p  a litre for the last year or so, to around 120-150p a litre  now.

It's just crazy.

Who should I blame?

The Mad Mullahs. Unfortunately this war has been a long time coming. 

Try Netanyahu & Trump.

It's a shame, but no suprise, that the leftist Alphabetti can't appreciate the irony of their uproar.
