or is it just a damp squib...
Who knows - but I'd rather not get caught out with a nearly empty tank if/when it happens.

[In fact, last time it happened I managed to fill up both cars + 20L jerrycan before the panic started which, with avoiding journeys where possible, saw us through the entire protest until fuel supplies were back to normal.]

And also in the news today:
