Refinery workers at Grange-mouth are to go on strike over pensions on the 27th of April, and could lead to no fuel being available for over a month,

It could be very quiet with nothing to do if we in Scotland and some in the North of England cannot get fuel.
I wonder if the government will implement the emergency practices again and limit diesel to emergency vehicles and essential personnel like they did last time if they do taxis and only taxis are included, PH had to do there own thing last time, or where only allowed to get £5.00 worth thats if they could get some

According to the news last night only the emergency services like the Fire, Police and Ambualnce services will have access to fuel, they had a officer on last night saying since the last fuel debacle most of the Police force have their own fuel tanks now.
