Saw a small queue at Bush Fair so joined it yesterday about 1820, 10 minutes later arrived at the entrance to see a traffic cone with no petrol on it, Why they could not put it a couple of hundreds yards back and save people the hassle, I guess the tills were ringing so they could not give a monkeys

So when the idiots in govt say the situation is easing, where exactly is it easing as nearly every petrol station I have seen today is closed as no fuel and I’ve had to travel to Watford from Harlow and the situation is the same here NO FUEL AND CLOSED PETROL STATIONS! When are they going to do something to correct the demand. I’m an ED nurse and worried I won’t be able to get fuel to get to work!!!!

Supermarkets should set up 10 min click and collect slots for fuel. Arrive no more then 10 mins before, wait in designated area, move to forecourt when previous batch gone. Guaranteed slot, no excessive waiting, no excessive queueing. Access to shop for shoppers sorted! As someone who works as a Tier 2 responder no access to fuel is an issue. Is a petrol watch group viable? Guessing it may cause 'rush' on a garage if tanker spotted though.

Took 45 minute to get into M11 when it normally takes 10. Bad enough I’m running low on petrol, now I got to waste more sitting in unnecessary traffic!

Welcome to Idiotsville. A town where common sense is lacking by many.

the lack of fuel has all been caused by the many idiots panic buying from last friday, everything was calm before the media decided it was a good idea to say fuel had to be rationed, i filled up two days ago from bp hastingwood gonna last me until next monday i reckon
