Fuel Protest

<< < (2/11) > >>

Drift:
Im up for it, why should we be forced into a corner and use alternative fuels :evil:
We all know that bio/veg fuels will be next to have tax banged on it, so make a stand at the very least let the feelings be known, remember an election is not that far off  :wink:

muddycarl:
yup ....go for it ..
can run on alternative fuels anyway :D

Jesska:
We can run on LPG so who cares, but they never seem to work, so whats the point? Fuel is the price it is because of the government, not the oil, not the refinement not the transport (although they blame it on these), if they drop fuel prices something else will have to go up to compensate, we'll never win so why make life more difficult by closing roads and causing major tailbacks?

cardiff_gareth:
The way I see it is, if everyone just keeps buying fuel and moaning about it - nothing will happen, as at the end of the day, your still buying it. Your in a rut as you don't wanna pay the prices but your forced to as you need your motor. If anything is to be done about fuel prices then action needs to be taken and if protesting is the only way then so be it. Do you think Mr Brown, who currently is reaping all that fuel tax (TBH he does run a thirsty jag!) is going to think ' :-k hmm, I see there is a petition, i'd better do something about it :^o ' I think not.

Veg oil is an alternative but with no pre heater for veg oil then in this weather and by that I mean the cold starts its not going to be good for some people, but saying that I don't know much about this bio fuel as I'm not running it and haven't looked into it yet  :oops:  :lol:

--- Quote from: "Boggert" ---Looks like they are thinking about a fuel protest again...

Do you support them...??

Would you put up with having no fuel as the depos are blocked with protesters...??

I for one would, as i think the price of fuel is crazy in this country??

You're an idiot then aren't you? The price will never come down, the speculators in the oil markets and the extreme demand and supply conditions will not allow it. If you don't understand this, don't comment.

What right have you, hauliers and assorted yokels (who don't pay anything like the same as the average motorist does) to decide if I can have fuel or not? Go argue the toss with Gordon Brown, it isn't anything to do with me. I'm entitled to go about my lawful business and you've no right to stop me by restricting my acess to fuel. I couldn't care if it's 50p or £5.00.

Hopefully the Police will get up off their backsides this time, apply the law, crack open the batons and crack a few heads!!
