This might work "Boycott BP"

[HowMuchLonger]

I am the first one to shoot people down who suggest this but:


"A Scottish Labour MP is advising Scottish motorists to consider boycotting BP petrol stations. Jim Devine says the firm's huge profits are out of control. It comes after BP revealed it made nearly £7 billion in the first half of this year. The figure has also fuelled fresh calls for a windfall tax for oil firms."


Please, please, please stop sending those blooming chain letters, it seems that MP's might take them seriously, whilst totaly ignoring the 1+Billion in tax that they already pay.

How bloody stupid can you be and still become an MP. I can understand the weekly recyling of the "this might work" threads generated by the PH trolls, but MP's are suposed to have half a brain cell.

Here are some: Labour MP shooting himself in foot, about blatant lack of understanding of the main industry in his region.

Just another Labour MP trying to up the support for a windfall tax on the oil / gas companies?

Im boycotting BP as my local has stopped selling LPG

I think a Labour boycott is more likely than a BP boycott.

petrol is not expensive, the tax is.

Exactly, if this bunch of cack handed chancers didnt keep acting like the Sheriff of Nottingham with their obsessional taxing behaviours, we would all be a sight richer and happier, theyre taking the piss with it.

Labour can just fk off..... permanently.

Yes, let's boost the British Economy and spend our money with companies other than BP. Er, great.
