There is as much chance of a petrol boycott for one day as a snowball retaining its shape in hell.
Our government of whatever colour will do absolutely nothing about petrol prices until the cost prices the lower classes off the roads. Thus leaving them clear for the well heeled.

entwisi said:You lot boycott away, in fact if you fancy giving up your cars for say a month that would be brill
just make mopeds compulsary until you reach 40. that would save a few gallons.
I’m an optimistic pessimist or is that a pessimistic optimist?
I hope for the best from humanity but life has taught me to expect the worst in most instances.
We are too fragmented as a society to make any boycott anywhere near effective. Heck we can’t even get everyone to turn out once every few years to cast a vote so a petrol boycott has no chance.
However there is nothing like a chunk of healthy cynicism to enable one to survive the trials and tribulations of existing in this me, me, me, me, me society.
