Thread Name: BS: Use of Forces to Deliver Fuel?
Subject: BS:UK Use of Forces to Deliver Fuel?
Unless I have grasped thge wrong end of the stick, the UK government are considering the use of forces to deliver petrol.

Now that raises some questions with me.

(1) Who is going to pay for it? I strongly object to any additional public money being put into this unless the government puts money back into public services that protect the most vulnerable.

(2) As defence budget are being cut, where are the resources going to be diverted from?

(3) Wasn't there a country in Europe in the late 1930's that used forces to enforce government policy?
