Anti Facts Sir Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Curiously quiet in the petrol stations I passed today, but that could be because it's pushing £1.60 for unleaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleP Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Surely, if petrol is not delivered, soon or later bog rolls and food won't be delivered either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't, there wasn't one before, neither was there a bog roll shortage, just people being stupid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody needs bog roll anyway, just water and a wet flannel! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toilet roll can be helpful for insulation. I've stocked up over the months prior for the simple fact it's an investment to curb inflation. I have also stocked up on clothes, toiletries, food, supplements etc, candles, lighters, wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen anything about this reported in local media, and I haven't heard anyone talking about this either. There is no fuel supply problem in the UK, last time round it was a small number of filling stations that encountered late deliveries due to a shortage of drivers in one delivery fleet, and it got blown out of all proportion, the resulting 'shortage' was caused by motorists swallowing the fear-porn propaganda and filling up their tanks to the brim, as well as a few jerry-cans for good measure. If everyone had just stuck to their normal routine, there wouldn't have been any issues with supply. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
