Crazy isn’t it. By next Friday the media will be fuelling a lack of some plastic shite toy or no turkey for Christmas, and we as the UK will lap it up emptying the shelves.
Selfish and greed for stuff we don’t need or can do without

Selfish and greed for stuff we don’t need or can do without Fortunately I don’t require fuel, turkeys or plastic shite toys. Things are looking up!

Brilliant. So if I fancy a Cream Egg or a Scone from BP later there's going to be massive queues . The nearest non petrol shop to me is like going on holiday.

My wife is one of those community key workers who uses about a tank a week at the best of times. I saw this coming and managed to fill her car this morning before she works this weekend and people were there with their cans filling up. God knows what we will do next week, I fear we will have to take our chances wherever has fuel People don't realise panic buying will create an actual shortage. The government and media are 100% responsible for this and it's frankly disgusting behaviour from them. How the fuck are the government to blame So you don't think the government are ultimately at fault as they failed to forsee or plan for this issue? Fuel companies have been crying out for months for help and the government are only just coming round to looking at visas for foreign drivers. The buck stops with the government. The people panic buying are themselves adding to the problem as well

A quick scan of this week's headlines:
- Roadblock dorks stop people getting to work by planting themselves in the middle of the motorway in the name of climate change
- Australian police shooting unarmed civilians in the name of a virus that is non fatal and currently killing under 0.2% of those infected in the UK
- Jab squads injecting children, overruling parents in the name of said non fatal virus
- Current Afghan government, The Taliban, announce they'll be reintroducing executions and mutilations in the name of law and order
- US president forgets what day it is for the millionth time this month
- Clowns queue up outside Tesco in fear of fuel shortage 18 months after they did exactly the same for toilet roll
- Stoke beat Watford away in 4 goal thriller
Barmiest times in living memory? Without doubt.

Filled up 30 litres in Brecon Beacons to get home. Girlfriend has two trips this weekend, one to Chester and one to Nantwich, because of the clueless wankers (Same who were panic buying groceries last March) I’ll probably be bolloxed for petrol on Monday.
No queues all through Wales, first petrol station I see across the border, everyone is queueing and that was a continuing trend all the way to Stoke.

It's dangerous too. Does nothing but put the city down at every opportunity, encourages division and hatred, takes advantage of and exploits the vulnerable/hard of thinking for clicks and revels in taking the piss out of the inhabitants of Stoke on Trent. I genuinely hope that everyone who works for that vile piece of shit of a 'newspaper' gets syphilis.

Get used to queueing.
And I got laughed at for telling folk to stock up for the past year. No point feeding the car if you can't feed your stomach.
They're crashing everything by design, a bit at a time, using a plethora of ways.

In the event of the country running out my missus has an electric car, and I have a push bike. Utter dickheads, and there will be care workers in the community and key workers trying to fill up just so they can do their job amongst them, that's the most frustrating thing about it..... Well said emergency services should be given a priority ahead of these idiots wanting to top their tanks up. That’s petrol not Sherman
