Petrol Prices!!!!! Please read And invite your buddies!!!!! Its become a joke!!!!!!
I have copied and pasted a message i received from facebook to spread the word amongst all of us d.s.i users about how we could possibly bring down the price of petrol in this country. Please read it and invite your buddies, So we could all try and make a difference.

See what you think and pass it on if you agree with it

We are hitting 106.9 p a litre in some areas now, soon we will be faced with paying £1 .10 a ltr. Philip Hollsworth offered this good idea:

This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a certain day campaign that was going around last April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to hurt ourselves by refusing to buy petrol.

It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT,whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work.

Please read it and join in!

Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP, we need to take
a ggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the market place not sellers.

With the price of petrol going up more each day, we
consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing their Petrol! And we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves.

Here's the idea:

For the rest of this year DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two biggest oil companies (which now are one), ESSO and BP.


If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact we need to reach literally millions of Esso and BP petrol buyers. It's really simple to do!!

Now, don't wimp out on me at this point... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I am sending this note to a lot of people. If each of you send i t to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... and those 300 send it to at
least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached
over THREE MILLION consumers! If those three million get excited and
pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it... ..

THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!

Again, all You have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all.(and
not buy at ESSO/BP) How long would all that take? If each of us
sends this email out to ten more people within one day of receipt,
all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the
next 8days!!! Acting together we can make a difference If this makes
sense to you, please pass this message on.

PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE 69p a LITRE
RANGE

It's easy to make this happen. Just forward this email, and buy your
petrol at Shell, Asda,Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons Jet etc. i.e.
boycott BP and Esso

petrol would cost around 20p litre if it wasnt tax. so how is lobbying the fuel companies going to help reduce the price of petrol?

Top Gear brought this up a few weeks ago. Petrol isn't that expensive really. Some mineral water can cost like £4 or £5 a litre. Now thats expensive.

Hydrogen fuel cells are the future anyway. Why lower the price of a fossil fuel only to make it cheaper for us to pollute the atmosphere?

neverbuy from bp or esso anyway

sometimes i do wonder if these things are just plys from other firms to get fuel purchased from there own forcourts!

IMO the only way prices are going to come down is if the lorry drivers have another blockade

The idea about not buying from bp or esso has been around for time and obviously doesnt make any difference

There is a lot of tax but its not as if people in England can't afford it. What's minimum wage? £5.30 something?
