I put in £15 petrol last night, but I used it all playing with my fuel maps = time for a splash more me thinks!

Nothing will happen, we will keep paying the price, no matter what it goes to. The goverment will not allow the blockades of 2000 to happen again.
They will be prepared.

We are a bunch of wusses when it comes to complaining in the country.

in my heart i know you are right, but there is a little something that really hopes that the government gets a good hiding over this......

Petrol tank was over £70 to fill... and the gas tank was over £30.. so yes!

......

You must have been running on fumes when you filled up, either that or the petrol was bl00dy expensive. I filled mine up on Friday when the low fuel light had just come on, it was £64-something to fill it to the top. (This was after I'd filled the Astra. £110 in fuel at Tesco within half an hour :( )

Why fill with petrol??
It will go off before it is used

A) If there is a fuel strike, I still need petrol for warmup. So a tankful will last for ages if needsbe.
B) I still need to tweak my fuel mapping, and I'm using a fair bit of petrol in doing so - so thought I may as well have some on board!

BBC now formally reporting the protests:

I hope it has an effect.
I have just read a report in The Engineer mag stating that there is approx another 4 Trillion gallons of oil left in the world to be mined...but not necessarily the stuff/grade/quality that is currently being mined. To put that in to perspective, since oil mining began only 1 Trillion gallons has been mined. That's a lot of sticky stuff.
-
the issue seems to be that the useage is increasing rapidly and that is what seems to concern people......
as Clarkson said on TG a few weeks ago, the first person to be able to make a suitable hydrogen store will be onto a good earner....
that will have the petrol producing countries worried
-
I wouldn't be suprised if the oil nations buy the technology as soon as it is invented so that it can't be used.
That's what happened with Man-made diamonds.
