Maybe folks need to stay at home and holiday at some of the lovely places we have locally, particularly by the sea. :roll: :roll:

Why f*** around at airports having to undress and being traeted like animals when there are plenty of better places at home where you can spend all your hard earned cash?

But not Blackpool, cos that's a sh** hole.

Diesel £138.9 this morning....Tonight same forecourt its £142.9..the Thieving feching Tw*ats...

We are almost the dearest fuel in europe...Diesel is usually cheaper than Petrol in most EU countries as well..Have a look at this EU Fuel price Comparison site, its in euros bu you can still see a big discrepancy between what we Saps pay and most other EU countries pay...


http://www.energy.eu/#Prices

Howcome, if the European Union is so bloody wonderful that we as europeans do not all pay the same prices, retire at the same ages on similar pensions and live on a comparable wage structure.

Cos we are soft in the Head thats why we dont...we adhere to the rules but live on and swallow the crap..

Because successive UK governments have always vetoed or opted out of anything that would allow these.

It's our UK government which over taxes fuel, has an older retiring age, pays out crap pensions, and allows crap wages.

This is what the voters of this country want.
No surrender of sovereignty to Brussells, no single currency, no straight bananas etc etc blah blah.
The taxes, pensions and wages go with the Little Englander attitude.
Pointless blaming Europe for what Westminster wanted.

I blame the EU for 80% of our legislative Sh*te and our own Government for 20% of our legislative Sh*te and the Scottish Parliament for another 15% of our Legislative sh*te...now thats a Total of 115% Sh*te we get up here in Scotland because we have three different Parliaments doing what one UK parliament should be doing by itself....and thats 3 lots of MP's Hotair im paying for instead of only 1 lot of Hotair from Westminster.. :roll:


Good god..how did we manage to survive before the EU and Scottish Devolution????

:roll: :roll: :roll:

I think your missing the point.
If you want the same fuel prices/pensions/wages as Europeans, then get the UK government to fund it.

Of course they can't because they've squandered all the money on pointless foreign wars, handouts to skivers, malingerers, junkies, the bankers who landed us all in the sh*t, any fecker who can board a lorry at Calais and claim he's persecuted, and a host of other politically correct shecht nobody here actually wanted.

Wake up blood. Westminster is the problem, not the solution.
