No fuel then!

We tried 5 petrol stations this evening to fill the car, so we didn't have to go out tomorrow...Jo has enough for two days right now, maybe - this situation blew up real quick! 72 hours....or less?

Met a guy tonight, who was nearly at the point of tears. He's spent the entire weekend ringing around garages, and then driving around, trying to find some fuel...he has 30 miles left in his car...he do any know what to do

Panic buyers....government blames the road haulage...everyone blames Brexit....but Brexit isn't the problems and neither is the RHA

The government was warned, and ignored the warnings...Brexit simply shone a light on the already existing problem

Meanwhile I'm waiting for my letter from the government asking me to consider returning to lorry driving....but I couldn't get there even if I wanted to

We've just got the older boys down to pray for our nation...we met many frightened and worried people who tonight

What a state our nation is in!

@Berrybunchfamily What country are you in? Praying

We're in the UK. We're semi-rural.

30 petrol stations up near the Midlands had an issue getting fuel late last week. It happens, rarely, and would have not been an issue. But the media covered it, stirred up fear, and in less than 72 hours almost all petrol stations in the UK have now run out.

There is plenty of oil in the refineries, and perhaps 150 drivers too k few across the whole of the United Kingdom which shows panic buyers are being stupid again. We saw it in the late 90s, but that was a strike by the lorry drivers: people buy the fuel they truly don't need, just in case, and that quickly gets worse. This it really bad quicker than I'd expected

Jo has a couple of days worth of fuel to get to work...people are getting stuck away from home, unable to return as there is no fuel... she should drive to work 4 times this week...

@Berrybunchfamily @MiBurrito @tymektt This happened here a few months ago! I remember going to the grocery and people were in a panic! Then it went to the gas stations!

@davereimer @MiBurrito @tymektt supermarkets have many gaps across the UK...that isn't spoken of much

CO2 was almost not existent due to a spike in gas prices...the CO2 is heavily used for meat transport in the UK

Carbonated water disappeared weeks ago. Not a huge concern, but it's a basic thing you expect to see, and there's just permanent gaps now
