This thread is very simple. It looks like the price of diesel is about to jump to such an extent that distribution of food etc is to be impacted. Obviously also its production.
Then we have personal transportation.

At what point is it a crisis.

Diesel is solid now at over two Euro a litre .....petrol €1:80.......green diesel increasingly hard to get unless you are prepared to work at cans which is very far from ideal

Its not often an American (or in this case an Irish American) gives two phukks about diesel prices because all their cars - even their huge pickups - are gas (petrol) driven.

However I welcome this discussion from Dan cos its a serious situation.

Saul work away at the cans brother. I know 'tisn't ideal but don't give these bastards the full price if you can help it.

So a farmer with a big tractor or two, relies on plastic containers. I doubt it.

Around the €1.85 mark where I am. Petrol still bizarrely around 20c less.

In Dan's money that's around $7.25 per US gallon.

That's €1.60 per litre ($6.29 per US gallon). To be fair that's not too bad.

Well, at least considering what it was. Still nowhere back to where it was before the American proxy war on Russia.

Heard a mad claim that diesel is about to go down further and petrol is set to increase.

It's mad what's going on.

It is amazing that people vote for decades for tax on juice.
