Uptown Houston, $3.99 a gallon for both petrol and diesel. That's 75p a litre give or take :-X

Even CN have picked up on just how tied to China th UK has become, arguing that the Chagos deal, the recent trade trips and trying to defend the Iranian regime only make sense of we're allies of China and by definition, anti American.

But I thought USA was less than UK Gallon More Than US Gallon in capacity.

But just checked 25 Gall tank on my old Pontiac and seems UK is the caller holding only
20.8169 UK Gall

As they say we learn something new every day.
A quart is 1.04/5 litres, and 4 quarts to a US gallon, ergo, a gallon of fuel is pretty much equivalent to 4 litres ;)

A proper British gallon is 4.55 litres.

I hope the yanks recalibrate the trip computers on their cars when they import them here.

From a Spanish forum, posted by a Scot on holiday.

“ I can’t believe how much the cost of fuel in Spain has risen. We left the UK on Thursday and petrol was around 1.33GBP a litre. On arrival in Spain every petrol station seems to be about 1.85EUR a litre. The UK always had some of the highest fuel prices in Europe for many years but it seems that we are now one of the lowest. Hard to believe but very welcome. Not sure why Spain has suddenly got these very high prices and it can’t be easy for many to afford to fill their cars.“

Level of stocks? Suppliers are different?

Matters not , soon we will have multi national forces keeping the Straits open to ships. Good luck with that.. When a European navy vessel sinks, Trump will say poor show………..

Heard a talking head on telly box in the US tother day pointing out that there's absolutely no reason behind the price rises beyond media driven fear mongering and conformation bias to try and control the narrative. His reasoning? Simple... The amount of available oil in the US hasn't changed, they're still net exporters of oil, and as they've just shifted the first batch of US/Venezuelan oil, the prices should actually be coming down.

Alot of questions are being asked as to why Europe, especially UK, Spain and France are so anti to what's going on in Iran. Perhaps the potential end to Islamic Fundamentalist sponsored terrorism and cheap Chinesium shite is to much for the globalist puppets to bear :-\

Killing 40,000 protesters since January is a pretty good reason for shutting down that regime. The freedom of the mostly oppressed population, stability resulting from the end of Iranian funded terrorism and, of course, the oil are all pretty handy coincidences.

The US getting involved in the insurance of shipping is a massive game changer in the global financial arena as it's a significant finger to the City of London and its centuries old monopoly of that market.
