Yeah, I got an email from petrolprices.com stating there will be protest action relating to the price of fuel in the UK.

good on them!

it's only a protest so i don't see it having much effect on the pump price or availability of fuel?

it look's like it's more of a "voiceing of opinion" protest, just to show the good folk of the UK are starting to get fed up with the price of fuel, especially now that the price of oil has dropped and the price we are paying for fuel has not!

i think there was a threat of a un-official "rolling protest" outside the House's of Parliment today (wedensday) but i never heard if it happened?

the official protest is this saturday, i'm just back from taking my wife on a driving lesson and between the 3 garages in our area the price of unleaded is still between 101.9 & 103.9
