I've added to the panic by filling up today .. .. mind you, I've been on fumes for the past 3 days so I kinda needed to ..
Excellent pointThere would be no panic buying if the flaming media didn’t bang on about it all the time .
Time to remove the 'Great' out of Great Britain because the reality is we are not great at all.
The media only 'banged on about it' because BP, in a responsible attempt to get the message across that we are in real trouble, described the gravity of the situation in a press release.There would be no panic buying if the flaming media didn’t bang on about it all the time .
Erm, yes of course I did ( cough, cough) .....You know of course that 'Great' simply refers to the size of the island that holds Wales, Scotland and England.
Course you did
How about stopping Bobo fanning the flames.I've passed 3 fuel stations and all rammed. The point is they said yesterday that BP have shut a few smaller forecourts but still more than enough fuel.
The very second I read that I thought 'everyone is going to panic buy'. They simply didn't need to a say anything and everything would be as normal.
The moment you say 'don't panic buy' people do. You could do a social experiment and say 'Stella is running low' and everyone would stock up'.
It f*cking winds me up. These are probably the very same selfish loons who bought 30 packets of bog rolls or cleaned out the pasta during lockdown
I don't care if its brexit or covid related. Just stop being selfish f*ckers and get fuel when you actually need it.
Ha! I was just going to reply to that until I saw you already did!You know of course that 'Great' simply refers to the size of the island that holds Wales, Scotland and England.
Course you did
Putting aside the fact that we agree that this mess is a making of the idiots in charge; do you think that the citizens of other countries wouldn't respond similarly to the news and announcements made?As soon as the Government made the announcement 'No need to panic buy' the rest was obvious. We are British. Many of us don't give a fig for others, as witnessed with panic buying before at the start of the pandemic. Time to remove the 'Great' out of Great Britain because the reality is we are not great at all.
Selfish, 'every man for himself' attitude in any signs of change and uncertainty. Telling people not to panic buy is like telling a child not to open the present, which is kept in an unlocked wardrobe, before Christmas day.
That's embarrassing
