Whilst I appreciate that if you pay your money 'why not'... this ridiculous situation re fuel is hoping to get out of hand...

Tonight, I went to Morrisons and there were 2 diesel pumps only... and a queue back up to the police station, then to Sewell prepared to pay way over the odds to get fuel, just as I got there they had no diesel and they said people were panic buying all day... as I was on 60 miles in my tank I figured it would be a waste to head to Sainsburys...

When this started, why didn't they just limit people to say £40 instead of someone filling up that it will take a month for them to use...
 
Our petrol light came on just as pulled into the drive tonight ffs , everyone will claim to genuinely need the fuel but it’s frustrating when you genuinely do and you know 95 % of people queing probably have a few days worth in the tank
