I recently recieved an email about a new petrol price protest.
The last one was a "Don't buy on certain days" The petrol companies just laughed. It didn't work.
This time it is suggested we boycott the two biggest companies, ESSO and BP. If we don't buy their fuels, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. Our target is down to the 69p range.
We can still buy fuel from the supermarkets, Texaco, Shell, etc, so it doesn't hurt us.
Pass this on to everyone you know and see how fast it happens!

Old news, old thread, old email, doesn't work

Ooops, sorry about that. I hadn't seen it before!

I think jamie86 was last one to post it up, about a week ago [although been posted up here many times before that] - his thread was deleted, lol

It might be working then. If you resist buying Esso, the other local stations will drop their prices in line and Esso will have to undercut them in an effort to get some business for as long as they are being boycotted.

No they won't. In economics terms, it's a good with an inelastic price elasticity of demand.
The local stations won't drop their prices (as a direct result of the Esso boycott).

94.9 im paying, cant go anywhere but esso cause the tub runs like crap on bp ultimate

I never buy from those two anyway, theyre always the most expensive. At the mo its 93.9p for the black stuff from Shell.

When it gets to a quid, im walking.......

83p for the Tesco chocolate (unleaded)

Yeah I dont buy from BP or anywhere other than Morrisons, which is the cheapest around here (Airdrie area) BP is 93.9p/l and morrisons is 89p, theyre all ripoffs.

Sarcasm mate

For what its worth i'd be happy to participate in a mass demonstration against the fuel prices,I'm sick of being shafted for council tax,national insurance/income tax,endowments,bank charges etc etc......then again its the British way to take it lying down isn't it?

Writing letters don't help because they are dismissed, when you ask to speak to anyone they just won't.

Only way is to take whoever is pissing you off to court. but that involves a large wallet for court and lawer fees which most of the nation can't afford, and the ones that can don't care because they can afford to be ripped off.

which leave one way for the working class.

Physically stopping things like parking your car in front of the garage which would get you arrested.

Being aggressive and making a scene which would most likely get you arrested.

Terrorism which will most likely get you arrested but also with the best chance of not being caught.

Sad but this country is really startin to whiss me off.
