Stanlow oil refinery blockade

[Foggy748]

YESSSSS! GET IN THERE!

Just read on the news that tanker and lorry drivers are driving a go-slow up to Cheshire's Stanlow oil refinery and will be blockading the exits for tankers. Fantastic news. The aim is to get the government (aka The Daylight Robbers) to drop fuel duty by 24p/litre.

They need all the support they can get! Come on, let's take a leaf out of the French book and really show that we can say enough is enough because, quite frankly, the duty we pay is taking the piss.

I just hope this action spreads around the country and brings it to a crippling halt. A clear message needs to be sent to the government!

Deep cuts? Less that 1% cut in HMG spending isn't really a deep cut, is it?

Too much sodium fluoride is added to the municipal water for people to have any fire in their belly.

The government is scaling back plans to use the private sector to deliver public services, the BBC has learned.

Leaked documents suggest ministers have decided the "wholesale outsourcing" of public services to the private sector would be politically "unpalatable".

Ministers instead want to use more charities, social enterprises and employee-owned "mutual" organisations.

Outsourcing was meant to be a key part of the government's drive to cut costs and reduce the UK's budget deficit.

Sorry to burst your tory fan-boy bubble..

I love the fact that the Tories have taken on the running of this country in really dark financial times and each time they suggest something it gets shot down as not the right thing or too harsh and might mean some cooncil high ups might get a smaller wage and bonus this year if Torie plans go ahead.

Labour ruined this country soo badly that we can't actually be arsed to do anything about it...

So don't blame the Tories, they're just doing what needs to be done.

You seem to have missed the point by a country mile.
