I really can't stand people filling loads of petrol cabs it really isn't a great way to carry fuel, but some will say it is.
They should limit people to fill 2 cans for petrol

I have not deleted any posts!
I am not knocking the emergency services!
I am stating a fact that the RNLI should not be going out and bringing these asylum seekers into the UK, all you are doing by this action is encouraging the people traffickers to bring in even more people to the UK and no doubt in boats that should not be on the sea as they are so dangerous!
If you are not carefull with your woke rubbish the RNLI will end up like the RSPCA!
And i actually think that the RNLI folks on the ground do a sterling and dangerous job and should be given full credit for the amazing work they do in helping genuine people ( not people smugglers like we have seen recently ) and saving lives.

Well if saving Immigrants is good enough for Nigel Farage it should be good enough for you!

That’s quite a list
I’ll have to make sure I stock up on deodorant pantyhose shag pile and lipstick before the oil ban comes into force
seriously though
The Public will have to get used to doing without most of the things in the list once fossil fuels are banned
can’t make all those things from cotton or hemp I’m guessing
Wow

A partial list of products made from Petroleum (6000 items). One 42-gallon barrel of oil creates 19.4 gallons of gasoline. The rest (over half) is used to make things like: Although the major use of petroleum is as a fuel, (gasoline, jet fuel, heating oil), and petroleum and natural gas are often used to generate electricity, there are many other uses.
Here are some of the ways petroleum is used in our every day lives. All plastic is made from petroleum and plastic is used almost everywhere: in cars, houses, toys, computers and clothing. Asphalt used in road construction is a petroleum product as is the synthetic rubber in the tires. Paraffin wax comes from petroleum, as do fertilizer, pesticides, herbicides, detergents, phonograph records, photographic film, furniture, packaging materials, surfboards, paints, and artificial fibers used in clothing, upholstery, and carpet backing.

Well this Government plan to boost their chances of hitting their 2030 target seems to be working. Wife has 'fallen for it' and is adamant we have to get an electric car. Plenty s/h/nearly new online but all sold within minutes of being posted (just like the housing market, in fact). Son said his mate has been trying to get one for months, just can't react fast enough.

Reminds me of a family story about a "day out to Hunstanton" where the driver got a bit lost & decided to follow a caravan because they must be going there too.... ended up closer to Skegness than Hunstanton!
