so Pat, in the maths how has he calculated that there will be duplication in the emails being sent thus reducing his calculation by a significany amount  , for example if I received 2 of those emails and was in the initial 30 then I'd only send one onward so 1/30th is lost, also what if I don't know 10 people  , ok i might know more, also I might just get one but not forward it on etc etc.............      how I like to rattle on 

something like this takes coordinated meetings supported by internet comms and to be frank, whoever he is, the email approach will do just about fuck all really.

Also, wait for 69p a litre, yeah right, come on  to be realistic if we did follow the process then when Esso have reduced to 99.9p we'd all crowd back there anyhow 

It's mostly the increasing cost of oil and yes tax so if a company could charge less and could supply the price would be less anyhow     it's a competitive market still between companies, just like Andy say's oin his locality I've also noticed that Esso are often cheapest around here.


The best approach in my opinion is ;

1. to stop taking the wank aproach of trying to force prices down, it simply won't work without huge protests including businesses shouting and taking action, which of course they won't as they then lose their sales etc too, 

2. to share transport like dare I say travelling to work with a colleague and reducing your fuel costs in a simple way, it's even good for business too 

Maybe one day we'll actually stray back from the internet and the ideals that we type about to dare I say speaking with people 


Maybe one day we'll accept the fact that oil is expensive and that tax and fuel costs are high in the UK and we need to mitigate the fuel costs by sharing transport and using our dangerous motorbikes less, just like I do , cos I do both, now where's my Halo

Its a rip off. What pises me off is that diesel is actually 50% cheaper to produce than petrol!   We do work at Fawley refinery so I know this from the source. They put it high because everyone has gone out and bought a diesel car because they do 50 to the gallon so the fuel companies are laughing all the way to the bank. Wankers. The government have to get rid of the tax, thats the only way it will come down. Tax on the fuel, then tax on that, then VAT on all of it, thats not legal in business but the fat scottish fuck can get away with it so we're screwed.

Perhaps if MPs had to pay for their own fuel instead of claiming it on expenses it wouldn't be so extortionate!

[HammyUK]

how about if they had to pay for anything............lazy fucks

Surely Esso & BP supply most of the supermarkets with the fuel that they use, so how the hell will they loose out as they are still selling the fuel to the same end customers.

This email has been doing the rounds for the last 4 or 5 years so with that in mind it hasn't worked before, why should it work this time.


Not having a go or anything, just these emails don't achieve anything.  Christ before Christmas there was supposed to be a demonstration buy the transport industry and even they couldn't be bothered with it all.
