    Like I said before, this is a manageable driver shortage without the panic buying. It's not new, we've had this driver shortage for weeks if not months, and nobody noticed. It's only when people are told not to panic they panic. And Boris knows this.

    Why would Boris want people to blame it on Brexit?
    Your guess is as good as mine. Maybe they want us back in the EU without losing votes. Better for Tory voters to decide for themselves that it's not worth the hassle. But that is indeed a guess.

    Whatever it was that happened that was worse than this, I'm sure we'd have heard about it.
    Covid passports. Search twitter for "Plan B".

    Also, there comes a point where it's no longer people being stupid but it's rational to panic-buy.
    Joining the queue isn't joining in the panic. Everyone who has a car needs fuel. Filling your tank when you use quarter of a tank a week is panic buying. And that is stupid, because you're stockpiling fuel that somebody else needs. That somebody could be a doctor trying to get to work. People know this when they fill up needlessly, but they just don't want to have to queue again next week, even though this will all have blown over by then.

    I think a few people might have noticed empty or half-empty shelves in their supermarkets.

    Covid passports exist in most countries. If the gov't here thinks they need to manufacture a fuel crisis to sneak in covid passports then they must really think the population is full of nutters.
    I just think we should suspend judgment on Boris until we have all the facts through an inquiry, police investigation, and parliamentary commission...then we should explode him.

    I'd like to be called Lord Poopy His Most Gloriously Excellent.
