I wouldn't mind it. I love the smell of gasoline. But I do not think this was her intended result. She's probably panic bought enough bog roll to soak it up anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Owl Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Saw this pop up a couple of times on Facebook this morning, anyone able to verify this? So, does fuel have an 'expiry date'? If so, its an interesting theory. However, if fuel doesn't 'expire', then its sadly just 'misinformation'. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote UK electric car inquiries soar during fuel supply crisis Sellers of plug-in vehicles say petrol shortages are driving people to adopt the new technology As petrol stations in parts of the UK started running out of fuel on Friday, business at Martin Miller’s electric car dealership in Guildford, Surrey, started soaring. After what ended up being his company EV Experts busiest day ever, interest does not appear to be dying down. This week the diary is booked up with test drives and the business is low on stock. “People buy electric cars for environmental reasons, for cost-saving reasons and because the technology’s great,” he said. “But Friday was one of those moments where people said, ‘Do you know what, this is a sign that we need to go electric’.” While scenes of chaos play out at petrol stations across the country amid shortages, for many electric vehicle (EV) dealers the fuel crisis has led to an unexpected surge in inquiries and sales. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/sep/27/uk-electric-car-inquiries-soar-fuel-supply-crisis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious. The push for electric cars has been in the media for months. In case you didn't get the message folks: BUY AND ELECTRIC CAR IF YOU CARE ABOUT THE PLANET!!! IF YOU DON'T REPLACE YOUR PETROL CAR WITH AN ELECTRIC CAR THEN YOU ARE VERY SELFISH! YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT KILLING THE PLANET! Joe minimum wage bloke: I can't afford to buy an electric car.

Classic problem-reaction-solution. The attack on good ol' petrol vehicles has been building up for quite some time now. Demonising it for "damaging the environment", the introduction of E10 petrol which damages older vehicles, and many relatively new ones as well. Now manufactured fuel shortages which will introduce small petrol limits as the norm, making it a nuisance and seriously restricting the freedom for petrol and diesel drivers. The clowns that are the normies can never see the forest for the trees. Spot on, and as others have noted here the Grid cannot support a load more electric vehicles/cars on the road, even if Joe Minimum Wage could afford them. Joe Pleb will be expected to use driverless buses and trains in the future. The only travel that will give him some sort of freedom is the trusty bicycle! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there will be a genuine food shortage, i do think its possible we will see empty food shelves and possible rationing. All manufactured by the elite. I'm not worried.

While I did initially think it was some junk misinformation designed to make us conspiratorial types look silly, it was pointed out that it was actually true. So yes, it puts a new 'spin' on this situation, and explains why the media have gone into overdrive with this. Interestingly, while browsing my local Reach Plc clickbait journalism spewer earlier, I came across this: Does fuel expire? Everything you need to know about storing petrol Quote With panic buying happening across the UK, there are a number of people looking to store fuel in the worry that the crisis may not stop anytime soon. As fuel stations continue to run out of petrol, a £30 limit has been brought in at some petrol to try and stop people from filling up more than they should. Despite Government officials telling people not to panic buy, drivers have been queuing up across the country to fill up their cars and spare tankers of fuel to avoid having to queue up. From: https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/uk-news/fuel-expire-everything-you-need-21696040 Before I even clicked on the link, I admit I was expecting to read some kind of 'debunk' or 'fact-check' of the above social media post. Thankfully no, but it irked me more that this article appears to be giving people ideas on the best way to store amounts of petrol and diesel at home. THERE IS NO NEED BECAUSE THERE IS NO FUCKING FUEL SHORTAGE!! Fuel stations are only 'running out' because the brainwashed masses continue to queue up for up to two hours just so they can fill their tanks up. Look at this shit: Driver in two hour petrol queue for fuel orders Nando's to car Quote A driver waiting TWO HOURS for fuel today left fellow motorists stunned - by ordering a Nando's to her car. Lily Potkin, 40, found herself trapped in "the mother of all queues" so ordered Nando's chicken wrap and peri-peri chips from Deliveroo. Lily said : "It was really funny. The people behind me saw him delivering it and the mood changed. From: https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/driver-two-hour-petrol-queue-21703582 Haha very funny. Queuing up for two hours for fuel, got hungry, so ordered a Deliveroo. How have these people got this kind of free time? I wonder if she got to pick her kids up from school on time... Next week: "I spent all my money on petrol and Nandos, now I can't feed my children, who can I blame for this?" (Also I do wonder, these fucking idiots who choose to queue up for hours just to fill their tanks, do they leave their engines idling while they are queuing?) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryH Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 It might help if there was a £30 minimum spend on fuel for cars to break the cycle of morons topping up every day when they dont really need the petrol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
