Petrol Price Up again.
Petrol prices about to soar
Motorists were today facing a petrol price hike of up to 50p-a-gallon as oil prices soared in the wake of terrorist atrocities in the Middle East. WTF . Plus Moron Gordon is going to up the Tax :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: The economic fall-out of the atrocity was still being gauged today amid fears that prices at the pumps could leap 20 per cent to 92p a litre, which is £4.18 a gallon. E-mail urges motorists to join boycott Shropshire motorists who have been left angry at soaring petrol prices are being urged to steer clear of blockades and to boycott the biggest names on the forecourt instead. An e-mail currently circulating in the county is stirring up support among drivers to avoid fuel-giants Esso and BP in a bid to force the price of petrol down. It says that as aggressive action has failed in the past - notoriously during the bleak stand-off in 2000 which led to nationwide chaos on the roads - a more intelligent plan has to be carried out. The e-mail, which has been passed on by beleaguered motorists, some of whom are top-level executives in Shropshire, says the only way the price of petrol will come down is if they hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing their petrol. And they are promising to hold out until petrol is reduced to at least 69p per litre. Bring on the Fuel blockades. |

I think its a disgrace that people pay up to 80 odd pence for a litre of petrol.
You woudnt catch me falling for it... |
driving home from skegness on wednesday and passed a petrol station wanting 89.9p for normal unleaded OUCH!!!!!! what a rip off. still some places reasonably priced though, easiest way is take the car of the road for a while and train/cycle/walk for a while :) but people are too lazy to do this.... either do something about it or stop the moaning.

I still don't understand why oil goes up in price because of terrorist attrocities :confused: It seems to be playing right into their hands. It's a feckin stupid response IMO.
Ah, well at least I have the bike and an old 1.3 brick to fall back on. Time to chop the Scoob in for a quality economy car methinks.... (nobody will ever want to buy it now in the current climate) UB:( |

UB:( There is a perception that terrorist attacks will interrupt supply either directly on oil wells/pipelines or Iraq will escalate into a full blown civil war thus decreasing the oil suppply. As such, the market sentiment forces the oil price up despite OPEC's efforts in conjunction with the non-aligned States efforts to reduce the price. In other words, demand outstrips supply in the eyes of the market makers. |
Superb. So al-Qaeda can now effectively control market forces to govern the world price of cude oil, using little more than knives and the odd grenade. (again!) No wonder they see the west as weak and stupid.
UB:( |
Never mind terrorists, we all know it's down to stealth tax why fuel is so high in this rip off country.
And these fcukers want me to vote for them?? I'd rather wipe my ass on the voting slip than vote for Blairs useless to$$ers. Andy. |

As we've now successfully hijacked this thread and moved it onto a favourite subject of mine - Labour bashing - can I suggest that you don't wipe your arse with the voting slip but instead put your 'X' in the box marked Conservative. :D |
LOL - you have to laugh at all the chav footballer's wife types swanning around in their gas guzzling 4 x 4s all paid for on credit. Couple this to the inevitable hike in interest rates and they will soon be well and truely stuffed. (As of course will the New Labour vote)
Personally I've been preparing for this combination of events for sometime, and I will be ready to cash in. Bring it on.... UB:D |
Anyone would think Saudi Arabia is bieng bombed by terrorists and hence making the world oil traders jittery :rolleyes:

Even the front bench, who just a few weeks ago were referring to "this so-called independence party" are now paying some grudging respect to the late Jimmy Goldsmith's mad fellow-travellers by calling it "UKIP". Given that no-one other than the UK Independence Party refers to itself in this way, I think it's fair to say that the Tories have the UKIP firmly on the radar screen and are ****ting bricks. Basically, they're scared, and regardless of how good or bad the Labour Party may or may not have been over the last few years, it's going to be the Tories who get the floor wiped with their ballot papers rather than Tony's crew. PS You didn't use to post on here as Holy Ghost, did you? The political slant and writing style are very similar. |

tiggers. Thatcher may have started it , but but Tony's crew have raised the bar beyond any sense of moral decency.... Grossly inflated house prices, record borrowing, no merit in owning a car unless it's a great big bloated 4x4. etc, etc, etc.... Even the underclass are now bedecked in 'designer' clothing and 'bling' jewelery. Mine are the politics of thrift and patience. I can wait for my rewards rather than adopt the current values of the 'everything now' brigade. I wonder what tiggers stands for? I guess we'll never know, as the content of most of his posts seem to be to simply bait people. UB:) |
Thanks Tone, so fecking bright of you and george to try and start a world war and feck up all our economies too.
what did you do wake up one day look at cherie and think lets celebrate the fact that its nearly 50 yrs since the last one so lets try and start another. Didn't you do so fecking well. Osama only needs 2 weapons of mass destruction and he hides one in US and one in GB he calls them Bush and Blair 2 twats who do more to support him than he ever acheived without them. AAaaahh, exhale, thats better rant over, just wish our opinions mattered I take it, that for the first time on scoobynet I can rant without being disagreed with - cool |
UB,
If you have read and understood (the key word here I think) most of my previous posts around this subject you will know that I believe in politics for the good of the country as a whole. That is why a stable economy, low inflation and low interest rates matter more to me than any personal gain. The current government have provided that, the previous one did not. The worst thing the previous governemnt did, however, was destroy the moral fabric of this country's society by making it be seen as a good thing to tread on others for personal gain and to make it an even better thing to boast about it. That is exactly what came across in your post (again) hence my comment. It's not trolling - it's just despising what this country has become. Yes and before you start I know I've said this before, but it doesn't seem to have sunk in with you yet hence the repetition. tiggers. |
Tiggers its got to be better than
"whateverrrrrrrrrr" !!!! we are creating a society of uncaring unaccountable chavs. they have no respect, because they dont understand the concept. they assualt people for dissin them, but because they go unpunished because they use some crap legal loophole to get them off weve had the single parent syndrome/ hyperactive / e numbers / abused as a child / a d d disorder/ What the majority needed was a good dose of parental control !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyway i digress the main topic i wanted to throw into the tank (sic) if its our north sea oil, why the feck do we let the other buggers have it.. lets crack it and make it uk only at 10p per GALLON inc vat and sell the rest to the world Mart |
Is this one of those threads? :D :D
|
Mart,
whatever ;) tiggers. P.S. Seriously though we are not creating that society - it has already been created - these are the children of Thatcher's Britain. |

UB,
We are never going to agree as you cannot see what you are. If you want me to tell you how you come across in your posts on SN I will, but it won't be pleasant reading. Having said that I guess this is not the place for this sort of dialogue so maybe I should just let it drop. See if you can do the same - it's up to you - I don't honestly mind either way. tiggers. |
I'm just having an attempt at a discussion, in reply to your various accusations. I don't know how that 'comes across' to you. You could have replied to the points I made but you've chosen not to.
That's your prerogative I suppose. Ho hum.... |
No UB, it's not my perogative it's just there's no point.
You and I have totally opposite views on subjects such as this and we will never be swayed from our standpoints. For instance you blame all the UK's ills on Tony Blair's government whereas I blame the previous government for the key problem with society. I don't think any party can ever undo the damage that was done whereas you don't seem to think that's the case and so on and so forth ... At the end of the day I can stay here and argure with you forever, but I've got work to do and I'm sure you've got something important to do like watch TV :rolleyes: tiggers. |
