Obama would love a mess like this, both for the excuse it would give for intervention and control and as a teachable moment on the wonders of green energy.

Clearly they have forgotten about the wind, solar and algae reserves.

What a bunch of fools.

Though the intention was to calm drivers, the government’s official recommendations and actions have had the opposite effect,

Government f**** up everything it touches.

Yeah, I can imagine him looking at the English situation with a twinge of envy. For one thing I think he likes chaos so that he can play the calm voice of reason role.

Chaos, violence, shortages is not going to help dear reader. He’s better off if everything is quietly limping along. He’s probably moved too fast in the chaos department.

But we have the GOP to make him look competent no matter how bad things get.

“limiting customers to £10 worth of petrol or diesel.”
That’s only about 1 gallon I believe.

What’s funny is the people are doing something constructive to prepare and the government is telling them to stop. Like it’s jealous.

If the eco-nuts get their way, this would be a normal daily state of affairs for gas guzzlers.
