If that’s the lesson you think needs to be learned, you’ve learned the wrong lesson from this.
We need to take more ownership of our petrol/diesel/oil supply. We need to stop relying on other countries for things we can do right here at home.
Comment on Government says people can 'make the call' on work from home amid fuel supply concerns

Our work said no. Honestly i kinda hope we run out of fuel. Allies of the US need a kick in the bum to make a move on trump and this is it. This shit is getting expensive, and thats before you think of the live’s lost already. Just embrace China, why fight it. Change is the only constant

All energy supply. And also all energy infrastructure.
This covers both Fossil and Renewable.
Corporate Astroturfing against Renewables needs to be exposed and banned. All political parties need to acknowledge that Renewable is the future, but our reliance on Fossil fuels are the bootstraps we need to pull on to get there.
Infrastructure needs to be Compulsorily Acquired for the nation through Eminent Domain. (Including other utilities and financial infrastructure and assets).
The Public Sector needs to be constantly audited to prevent any pork barrelling and corruption needs to be exposed as the crimes they are, with legal ramifications for those who are exposed.

Who is this “we” who is going to take ownership of this?
The neo con govt that jumps when any industry sneezes?
The energy companies themselves going to do it because they are all about doing what’s right for the country / consumer / anything other than profits?

This energy crisis is already the product of white people.

We export like 90% of our crude oil and we’ve only got like 2 refineries so we also import like 80% of our refined oil.
So we’d be losing a shit load of money while also needing to spend a shit load to build refineries etc to get it set up. What’s your plan for pulling that off while also replacing the missing funds?

We need to speed-run to the “And Find Out” part for all the fucking around by the powers that be.
Unfortunately the MSM and MSSM are pushing the Xenophobic narrative that our current societal collapse is not due to people being fucked over by big business, sexism and fascism, but by anyone who is not the same as you.
