One thing I have learned about my fellow Brits is that we overreact to minor problems. In spring 2020 everybody bought all of the toilet rolls and I had to sacrifice a few socks to wipe my arse. I didn't panic like other people because I thought that if there is no toilet rolls for too long, I would use something else instead; Later, all the pasta in the supermarkets sold out and then they took all the meat. I'm vegetarian anyway but I didn't understand, perhaps everyone turned into werewolves or something like that.
Now, there was a slight supply issue with the vehicle fuel. The news went on and on about it all day long and then everyone panicked and took all the fuel, they filled their car tanks, then they filled up lots of fuel Jerry cans and loaded down their cars with fuel, some people were taking 100 liters. Before long there were petrol stations coned off because they had no fuel left.
The fuel companies were fixing the supply issue already, they were increasing the price of the fuel and recruiting delivery drivers to replace the ones that had left. The news companies were responsible for causing a mass panic in my view.
There are so many interesting things happening in this world but the only thing they were showing was the so called fuel crisis. Very disappointing in my view.
