Title: Fuel protest action
Post by: Elginn on December 10, 2007, 01:23:24 pm

My usual petrolprice.com email arrived this morning and this is what it says, about a protest planned for this wednesday.

Last week I was informed that a group called Transaction 2007 had plans this weekend to release a statement announcing some kind of protest action relating to the price of fuel in the UK. I have just read a statement published on their web site in which they have confirmed that they are going to organise legal protest action, and that it could begin as early as this Wednesday.

I have got more on the PetrolPrices.com blog about this:

We will of course be following the story as it unfolds next week to keep you informed. If you want to express your opinion about the plans you can do so on our blog, as always, by leaving your comments and voting in our polls.

Regards,

Right. I'm off down the garage later before it gets mad later in the week.

I'll leave it until 10 or 11 tonight though, in case it's busy.
Don't fancy filling it at 100 quid, but 40 or 50 should see me through fine.

It's still the same spent over time, just all in one lump.
It'll still hurt though! :-\
