Looks like the blockades will be back next week. There are already reports of petrol hitting per litre so I guess the panic buying will set in like it did a few years ago.
Not good news :!:
as a director of transport we have heard from the greater powers from above that next tues daytime is when the planned assult on local goverments will commence so all you hot doggers fuel up over the weekend and not be stuck in doors with only yourselves to play with.
adey.
hopefully the boyracers will run out of pocket money and not bother us
all a load of ********** I'm afraid. when was the last time you saw a haulier going out of business ????????? No all this does is dig into their massive profits..... lets face it all they will do is pass the charge onto customers. I use hauliers every day to deliver goods and what they charge is way to much...but they know they can get away with it. Already they have put up standard rate by over £5.
Total rip off.....the people that should be hauled over the coals are the hauliers and the massive profits they make .
whatever the rights and wrongs of blockades etc , the last one cost me about two and a half grand,, no fuel to work , lost contracts and general misery, what would i have gained had the strikers/blockaders been succesful well by my reckoning at the time after about two years id have got my £2500 back, pointless waste of time...........for me, for others maybe they got results, maybe politicians rubbed their hands together.
off to make a more interesting post about dogging now

my god thats robbery but you can bouy cott it by buying your petrol from super markets it a lot cheaper and they are a gaint consummer for the consummer because you have morrisons,safeway,asda to mention a few playing you for your money there lots to chose then slowly bp ,esso will start to see the drop in its profits if this message starts to get to people.
you are the consummer you have the say not them
Unlikely, the supermarkets buy their petrol from the likes of BP so all they'll see is a shift in the source of profits coming from a cheaper product, therefore a price increase will be levied on a product that is seeing increased demand. Boycotting a front end brand won't help.
blockade's really piss me off. what right do they have to stop me going to work?
i would love the opportunity to use public transport but I work 30+ miles away and there's no trains or buses that go that way. :cry:
