BBC News - Fuel tanker drivers urged by union to reject deal

… I wont be surprised if there's a union strike announced in time for next weeks local elections.

And if so, it would be our opportunity for all TMC / EV / hybrid UK owners to organise an invasion of the M40 and carry out the original idea of photo-shoot from a motorway bridge showing both sides of the motorway devoid of ICE cars and dozens EV's driving each direction - just to highlight the fact there is an alternative to being reamed by the oil companies and government. Then give it to the Dailymail

Maybe feed them the fact that a £6.50 gallon of petrol provides either 30 miles in an ICE car, or about 400 miles worth of electricity...


Following which we can all converge on the services at Junction 8 on the M40 for more photos showing a queue forming behind the single Ecotricity charge point !

*picture of expensive gas*

I thought "Oh, that's not too high. I've paid over 1,70€ for fuel before... "
Then it dawned on me that this is in £££

A daily statistic of LEAFs, Volts etc. sold in the UK would be awesome now.
