On the flip side... another side to a falling pound
BBC News: Fuel thieves target Greater Manchester petrol stations
"Thieves have stolen thousands of pounds worth of fuel from petrol stations in Greater Manchester... Police said the fuel card had been cloned and has been linked to other fuel thefts, worth a total of £2,000." A falling pound does have serious consequences. How much more of this are we going to see after the General Election? How much civil unrest will there be once the music stops and interest rates have to go north? Some tough choices ahead and I wonder just how much the consumer-machine (sheeple) realise this? Oh dear...

They are blissfully unaware, what's really important is Rooney's injury, Jordan, Cheryl Cole, Eastenders, XFactor and all the other puerile cr*p that the media puts out.

we must pray for him, he is our only hope to guide us out of this
mêlée.

Fuel thefts from garages have been around for years - not sure that this is linkable to the current economic position.....

Smugdog, good to here from someone who still appears to be sane after some of the loony comments on the post titled "Could this be Britain after the election?"
