The MSN triggered the panic buying. Across the UK there was only 5 petrol station that had to close due to lack of drives because a few were off work because they were sick. Yesterday's poll of the public view put the panic buying blame on the MSM.

@hugheaston7598 I was simply stating facts. Facts don't require questioning or alternative views. There are roughly 70 Million people living on this little island called the UK. So when everyone suddenly goes out and buys 2 or 3 times the normal amount of any product, like they did with toilet rolls and now they have done it with fuel. There will be shortages while morons keep stockpiling

@Aaronwhatnow It was proved that BP were the ones who leaked the fake story to the media. If you dont understand there are always a handful of petrol stations that are closed every day of the year because they run out of fuel across the whole of the UK. Then you need to have a serious rethink. BP reported 5 petrol stations had closed on that day. Then the MSM reported Scary Headlines of "fuel shortages" and the panic buying started. The MSM manufactured/triggered the panic buying, which caused fuel shortages. Next you will be saying this is because of Brexit !!!!! but if that was the case, WHY didn't this "fuel shortage" happen when we left the EU?

@hugheaston7598 Wrong again. Most people don't fill their fuel tanks to the top in the UK. On average most people put £20-£30 in their tank every week. Only people doing long trips every day fill their fuel tanks to the top. Even if you live in the countryside, your only 5-10 miles from a petrol station at the very most. Yes if you travel to remote areas of Scotland there might be 15-20 miles between one petrol station and the next. Where i live there are two petrol stations just up the road and there used to be two more 100-200 meters down the road. In any direction from my house there will be at least one petrol station every mile for at least a 50 mile radius. So you are clearly talking utter rubbish. I asked my mates wife what all the fuss is about because she works in a petrol station and she says they are getting fuel deliveries more than normal to cope with the loopy panic buyers. BP leaked the fake news to the MSM because there was a grand total of 5 petrol station closed because they had a couple of truck drivers off sick. The rest is just morons panic buying. We have seen the idiots filling up 10x fuel cans at the back of their car and people filling plastic pop bottles with fuel. Is that normal? Or is that stupid people panic buying. I can assure you of one thing, you cant buy a 5 liter petrol fuel can in the UK at the moment because the morons bought them all.

@hugheaston7598 That's because normal people understand carrying the extra weight of a full tank of fuel reduces fuel mileage, The same as having low pressure in your tyres or carrying extra weight in the boot of the car. Thats the reason manufactures fit a space saver wheel and tyre. Over the lifetime of a vehicle the reduced weight of the space saver wheel and tyre will save hundreds of pounds in fuel. It's not rocket science. If your idea was correct and everyone fills their fuel tank up to the top. Why were people queuing to fill up at the petrol station? You think there fuel tanks are full, so where are they putting the fuel? If everyone's tanks are full, Why did the petrol stations put a £35 limit to stop the panic buyers? How are they putting more than £35 in the tank if they are filled up every week? Your logic is flawed.
