UK Strategic Fuel and Food Reserves

[Karidian]

Just from local observation; Glasgow has a few big blue gas storage tanks at the side of the m8 motorway. ( you know the kind that sort of expand upwards as the volume inside grows). I have never seen them so low, for such a long time. I personally think that with the price of gas now the companies that supply it (ours is eon) are pretty much just buying it as they need it rather than storing it.
As regards to petrol/diesel etc. Look a few years back when the haulage industry was organising mass protests and blockages of the refineries. Petrol stations all over the place ran out of fuel within days due to panic buying. Even if the government do have fuel stocks available the average citizen isnt likely to see it. Either that or there will be a fight at the forecourt to get it.
My 2p for what its worth.
