Queues at at garages, The Tories gave advice on what to do, by filling up jerry cans, and save what you can - we have now a woman seriously ill in hospital, the Fire Service gave advice on not to carry out out what the Tories have said.
What has happened, the Government has won, it has millions in fuel duty comes in and NOT ONE Tory has apologised for the ill advice.
Next thing we will have is Cigarette makers will go on strike, what will happen then, queue's at shops and supermarkets will run out - and the government will smile again with all that revenue coming in - That idiot has been playing games with the country, and again we are the loser's.

Nobody has won at all. A profit isn't made in a couple of days, it has to balance out. And when the strike (or not) is over, people will go back to diving as much as they usually do, and using up the fuel that they have stockpiled. And when it does all balance out the government and the oil companies will probably have made less money.
