    It seems the answer to everything is to strike,pathetic really,should just sack em and employ people who are crying out for jobs.Soon stop all that bollox then.
    Why dont we all strike against paying income tax,VAT and council tax-Now thats a proper strike!!
    I hope all the fuel just spontaneously combusts-the government would be like drug dealers who's cash and drugs have just been burned haha NNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

    I'd imagine there would be riots of the public kicking the stickers asses for that.

    Really busy in stupid londonland, lots of dumb flucks sitting in the queue for 45 mins burning diesel!
    The smelly guy behind the counter is normally on his mobile when I go to pay but he can't write the reg numbers down fast enough before they drive off,

    Not even noticed whats going on round here as I don't pass any petrol stations going to and from work.

    Might have an issue if I can't get fuel as MR2 has a capacity of £45 and that gets me the total of 120 miles and it's on halfway at the moment.

    burgo, its simple whats going on.. the people who fund the labour party are trying to cause a split between the tories & lib dems, cos if that happens, there will have to be an election, and because of the spending cuts (because of labours over spending in the past) labour are ahead in the opinion polls, this **** hasn't even got close to kicking off yet, they will try their hardest to shut this country down.

    One good thing, the roads seemed unusually quiet on the way home tonight. Obviously people not making unnecessary journeys like old dears returning from their busy coffe afternoon at the WI

    There is talk of strike action during the olympics from some unions. I doubt anything will happen though as the media would be against it and as most people think what the mail/mirror/sun/etc tell them to think, there would be no public sympathy (well less than usual). Even though nobody wants the fecking olympics

    Based on the spinelessness of cleg, and how millipaedo won't be leader, I reckon Dave would landslide it. I'd vote for his lot again and again.

    ahh, but you are forgetting the massive scandal that mr osbourne, our chancellor, a man who, being a millionaire before he became a politician(unlike blair/brown etc), is qualified to manage our money couldn't tell them when he last bought a pastie from greggs!!!, and mr cameron was 'made to look a fool' cos he claimed to have bought a pastie from 'west cornwall pasty co.' considering they are at every station & motorway services, and considering he is far too busy running the country to buy a pastie..... he should be thrown out of office....

    big sodding deal.... proper tourist trap cornish pasties are so effing expensive that most of us can't remember the last time we actually bought one
