Don't you dare ****ing judge me, Stainesy.

I don't embrace anything that much about the present Labour party. I've never been a member and have voted for various parties other than Labour over the years, including TUSC (remember them?). I want Labour to be united and successful in order to get the Tories out of power, but it's sad, misguided class warriors that are helping to prevent that. Does that cap fit?

I despair that the left continually fights with itself.

If that’s what you think I am then I’m not really arsed mate and wouldn’t fall out with you over it…..I’ve never met you in person but you seem like a genuine good guy. However we all judge each other from our words on here and sorry if it offends you that I’ve judged you from your words.
However I stand by what I’ve said.

Fuel supply: UK suspends competition law to get petrol to forecourts

The government is to suspend competition law to allow oil firms to target fuel deliveries at petrol stations following recent panic buying.

Officials said the move would make it easier for companies to share information and prioritise parts of the country most at need.

It follows days of long queues at the pumps after fears of disruption to the fuel supply sparked panic buying.

Ministers are also considering deploying the Army to deliver fuel.

The option is under discussion, and could be discussed at a possible cabinet meeting on Monday.

The Petrol Retailers Association has warned that as many as two-thirds of its membership of nearly 5,500 independent outlets are out of fuel, with the rest of them "partly dry and running out soon".


Announcing the measure to exempt the oil industry from the Competition Act 1998, Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng said the government had "long-standing" contingency plans in place to maintain fuel supplies.

"While there has always been and continues to be plenty of fuel at refineries and terminals, we are aware that there have been some issues with supply chains.
 
Will be interesting to see when and if the powers that be decide to take firmer action against the eternal tossbags of Insulate Britain.
Wonder who will be the first martyr to the cause and end up doing a few months in the Nick.

They're blocking an M25 feeder road today, in breach of the injunction obtained by govt. That's a contempt of court and is taken seriously by judges. Hopefully some will not be held in jail, which will keep them from menacing the public going about their business.

The problem is though, is that they then risk making a ‘martyr of the cause’, and giving the twats a shining light who they can hold up and say how righteous they all are as they are willing to give up their freedom for what they feel is right…….I don’t think there is an easy answer.

Martyrs usually need to have the public on their side. I don't think they will in this case, given they've caused damage to the public by their selfish acts. If they want to throw themselves in front of an HGV, maybe the public would sit up. But at the moment, the bloke organising the protests hasn't even bothered to insulate his own house!

Reports coming in of men panicking to google what the hell a "cervix" is. Which is frustrating for them, given they've only just found out what a clitoris is.

It’s crazy world when you have a Labour Party that is talking about the men and cervix’s, thus giving the MSM the ammunition they need to attack them……and a conservative MP campaigning for a bill that ensures workers must be able to keep their tips at work.
