New Fuel Problems - Repeat of BA Thread
Just a heads up for those travelling to the UK in November.
Current predicton is if the UK 'mini-budget' does not come up with concessions on tax then a new fuel blockade will be imposed by farmers, truckers, etc.
Based on previous experience Joe Public will start buying up fuel from about the 10th November onwards.
Government is training military drivers to drive essential supplies and seem prepared for confrontation.
However, watch the news mid Novemeber for update.
I would hope this would be resolved but take care if renting cars from UK airports, check with your agent.
