The government cry, correctly, that this is a global problem. I haven't heard any acknowledgement yet of the extra bonus £££££££££'s raked in from current duty and VAT from a 'world crisis'. Greedy bastards can easilly lighten the load, I'm sure.
I was on the fence for a while but overall I'm for the protests, if they happen - I think most of this is media hype. As you say, if we don't take direct action, what do we do? Moan about it quietly over a cup of tea, that's what!
We need a government that promotes future fuels. Me? I won't notice a fuel crisis - veg oil gets me from A to B :)
