![]() There was a guy on our next door app offering people the opportunity to siphon off fuel from his cars ...on the face of it a very generous gesture but he had obviously been out filling up his 'cars' with no obvious need to.

People are stupid sometimes... Stupid and selfish.
I'm interested to see how the recruitment of foreign drivers goes, considering the massive shortages of HGV drivers right across Europe. |

No way are any drivers coming over for literally 3 months, especially if they have a job already, for starters they would need to find accommodation. That is fine for seasonal workers where accommodation is already on site at farms and such, this is not going to happen

Outside Glasgow/Edinburgh I don't think Central Belt has really been panic buying? like I said, one place was out of diesel late on Sunday, haven't seen any other signs of an issue, haven't seen any queues. But then, there were also no empty shelves the last two times there's been "supermarket panics". Lower population density helps, I suppose.

I think one small indie one was open on the same road as my office as the traffic was horrific and my colleague said she thinks it was queues to get into the petrol station causing it. Definitely depends on where you live how crazy its been ![]()

It's not stabilising from his government's efforts. He's procrastinated just hoping it improves. Waste of time asking him anything you just get a load of s...e from him. |

it was always going to stabilise without any action as the panic buyers all had full tanks of petrol. Sometimes its actually better to wait and let it sort itself out. The only action that was needed was priority access for essential workers, which was done

We shouldn't have been in this position at all, the government's been warned for months this could happen.
It did nothing. Plus it's only now after near a week, that essential workers are to get priority in some places. I'm not going to let this incompetent government off the hook on this. They've been abyssmal. Grant Shapps shocking. They've run away again, again refusing to be interviewed on TV about the issue. Unbelievable they are getting excused for this unnecessary mess and chaos. |

I agree Liam. In effect though, they do slap disabled people Liam. Admittedly not in public but they slap them down and humiliate even terminal cancer patients. Having to go to court to get wrongly removed benefits restored. Adding more unnecessary stress to their health. Yet even that is hidden, never raised, never condemned by their hard-line heartless supporters. Even voting for more of it in 2019 when out they went out to re-elect them. So maybe it's not so unbelievable that this will be excused them too as to this fuel, deliveries and driver shortage Which they've been warned about for months. It strikes me little that goes wrong in the UK, is to their supporters, anything this government should do anything about, so not their fault when they don't. Really unbelievable and sickening. |
