I have done it

Maybe we should all boycot the big garages, Esso, BP, Texico, Etc. Even if we all cut back by just £1 each time we fill up, when you think of just how many cars go into a garage each day, that would be a huge loss to them.

What I can't understand Steve is nobody seems to be complaining not even the press.

Steve

These companies are very clever they wait until there is a big event like the earthquake and then put their prices up knowing that the news headline will be full of that incident. They hide behind other events. All we can do is to take passive action. Even just by boycotting say the BP garages, the whole industry will get the message.

I agree.I've done it.

Well if you think back a few years to the protest`s that were arranged around the refinaries you never here from those who arranged them........The government bullies have silenced them! How else is this pathetic government going to scrape back the cash it wasted on the banks

Like the old slogan used to say " RIP OFF BRITAIN "

the prices are robbery at the moment but in the not so near future i can see it all happening again especially the haulage companies!!we can petition the government but hit them where it hurts ok there will be a "shortage but think of the revenue that they will loose!make them pay i say!!

That's what the French do Steve.

Its a good idea to boycott the garages but if you need fuel you have to use them.
If you put £1 less in at the garage it just means you need the next fill up sooner and it may have gone up in price again.
Its a vicious circle with no way out!!!!

If there was a boycott on a whole day no, feul sold this would amount would be astronomoical....
I know you would have to fill up on another day but think of the amount of duty and profit which would be lost?
Now if this was to happen one day each week and progress from there. Just think??
