If it reaches 1.50 a litre there could be an Egyptian riot here
On the news it said up 5 p by next week then add the 5p the bar-stewards in London are adding in duty
That bampot in Libia needs blowing off the face of the planet, as its him thats caused this, but the Saudis have said they will increase there production to compensate

Possibly, but I bet around 90% of yanks dont know where Lybia is, they will think its whats between a woman's legs, FFS most dont even know what the next states like.
The SAS will already be there and have him in there sights, as the yank special forces could not be trusted to do it
Back in 1979 we where at fort Campbell air assault group training against them we had 50 16 year old juniors with us, they went for a days live firing with anti tank launchers every one of them hit the target, :D the yanks missed the lot, :lol: :lol: and they where big built adults.
Being Jock's we took the hiss at every opportunity after that :D

I think a few carefully placed "agitators" could/may have started a ball rolling amongst the younger generation, and then having lit the blue touch paper, walked away. what we are seeing now is the resultant blast.

138.9 here...I think the garages are heaping on as much they can get away with before the Goverments added their bit....certainly forecourts would have more trouble explaining away price increases afterwards for fear of being lynched.
