Re: [Update] Fuel tanker drivers vote to strike

On the other hand, in 2000 T. Blair was lambasted for not acting quickly enough in the face of a strike threat by tanker drivers. Sometimes the guvmint is damned if it does and damned if it doesn't.

Personally, I think a bit of panic buying now is worth the pain to deny that moron Len McLuskey the pleasure of igniting the panic when he finally decides to call a strike. Nationwide industrial action aimed at any part of our essential infrastructure is a terrorist tactic and anything the government can do to fight it is welcome in my book.
