Bad tempered people and petrol queues.

I think people have had enough and have short fuses at the moment. Many people did not vote for this shower...the Conservatives nor for Brexit but are suffering because of the incompetent Tories and the results of not managing the results of Brexit on the economy which any child could have planned for or worked out. Its a pity this anger is not directed at No 10 and the buffoons in power. Sadly, this petrol crisis is causing anxiety and anguish to many who may be leading difficult lives anyway and this petrol crisis is sending many people over the edge and losing their tempers. I don't blame them. All the while Grant S.....S!.. is gormlessly virtually smiling in interviews and blaming everyone but him and his dept for this crisis...typical Tory!

In Europe, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Poland, Romania etc..they are not having to queue at petrol pumps and nor do they have food shortages in the supermarkets. This government could not run a chimps tea party. Grant S.....S!...knew this was going to happen over 12 months ago but he just sat there in his office without intervening and twiddled his thumbs and hoped for the best! Yes people are angry but they should direct their anger at this incompetent bunch of clowns...the Tory government. Worse is still to come i fear with more food shortages after November.

I wish people would stop blaming this on Brexit. If you bother to look outside of the UK instead of listening to MSM, many other countries also have shortages of truck drivers. In fact the shortage in the UK was confined to the south east until the MSM decided to make it sound like armgeddon which resulted in everyone panicking and rushing to fill up/top up their tanks which then resulted in petrol stations running out.

And no issues with fuel food supply.

Why do you think that is?

The EU has freedom of movement so people can move from France say, and get a job in Spain. Lorries can drive from one country to another and apparently conditions for drivers are much better than here. I am afraid the rest of the world can’t understand what we are playing at. It seems N Ireland have well stocked supermarkets and plenty of petrol. However, I read somewhere today though that Johnson wants to bring NI back into line with the rest of the UK. Five years on from the Brexit vote and a lot of what the Remainers warned would happen, is happening. COVID hasn’t helped, but it should not be blamed entirely by our atrocious government. They have had 11 years to sort things out.

I got to the front of the service station queue finally, felt quite emotional, I just filled up………

Lucca ???

Love it Lucca??

Personally I think these Petrol station should employ marshalls who are permitted to question those in the queue and see how much juice their vehicle actualluy contains. I its more than one third full they should be asked to leave the queue unless they can prove they need the tank full NOW1

Gwen under no circumstances should Marshall's check how much fuel you have in the tank. A male employee put his head in my car and asked how much fuel I had, I found him intrusive. He was lucky I did not tell him to do one.
I have to work 3 full days a week and I collect my Grandson from School out of my area and not on a bus route. Why I am getting fuel is/was none of his business. I filled up my tank, and yes I did only have a little left, paid and left.
I am fed up with people condemning others then doing the same themselves.
I have made no unnecessary journeys and I am trying to make this tank last.

I drove past 3 local petrol stations and all were open with only 2 having a short queue. Looking better.

Can you imagine how much that action would push the level of anxiety and aggression up Gwen?
Who would do that job?
Plus how many more demonstrations, blocking more roads would this action lead to?

Free yoga and meditation lessons to chill every one out is my suggestion! (Joke)??
