Blooming Petrol Prices!!

(1/4) > >>

Disco_Al:
We are hitting 95p a litre in some areas now, soon we will be faced with paying £1 a litre.

But, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work. Please read it and join in!  Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is Cheap, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that consumers control the market place not sellers. With the price of petrol going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing their Petrol!  And we can do it, without hurting ourselves. Here's the idea:
For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two biggest
oil companies (which now are one), ESSO and BP. If they are not
selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices.
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Esso and BP
petrol buyers.

PLEASE HOLD OUT to arround 69p a LITRE It's easy to make this happen.  Buy your petrol at Shell, Asda, Sainsburys, Jet etc. i.e. boycott BP and  :evil: Esso (Tesco).

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!

Cheers
Al.

You ever been to a refinery? You ever watched the tankers come out? If so you'd soon realise the above won't happen :-)

Petrol aint the expensive bit - it's the 80%+ tax you are paying in the pound.....

Jim-Willy:
Oh no not again..................... :roll:

Disco_Al:
True but still, if no-one buys the big-wigs fuel then they will have to lower the consumer prices, therefore making that 80% you mentioned lower.

Thrasher:
Um....define "the big wigs fuel" - it all comes from the same places. The sign on the tanker is the only difference......

It's a bit like gas and electricity.....if you think about it :-)
