Fuel Protest
blackbob:
if there is a fuel blockade the we will see how many alternitive fuel cars are around
the way i see it there will be a lot of 4x4s still moving on lpg and dio-diesel/veggie oil and loads of people complaining about it instead of standing up and getting counted

Is fuel actually as expensive as we make out? 10 years ago we earned less. 2 years ago most of us, in jobs, earned less. Remember when £5 was a lot of money? The £20 note has replaced the fiver.....
yeah .but less than 10 (a mere 7 in fact) years ago my 3 bed semi was 51k .....i am certain wages have not gone up in line with house prices ...which is the main outgoings of peoples wages without being taxed to death on fuel and road tax.....it's all a massive red tape back door hike to get everyone to stay at home and not use our rapidly failing road system.....for those in the haulage industry will know profit margins have been literally cut to the bone..
i am all for any protest that gives this dictatorship a kick up the rear :D

As the once mighty u.s.dollar is not so influential in the world as it once was,(black market trade in the far east and russia/eastern europe seems to be done in euros nowadays)maybe oil producing countries should start trading oil for euros instead...perhaps then the u.s.would have to take a step back..
att:
Your foodstuffs will become more expensive than fuel very soon as the compettition hots up for arable space..... :lol: :lol:
Oh how I larfed.........You will starve before you reach your destination in an economic manner very soon, you read it here first...
