OH NO! WE ARE GOING TO RUN OUT OF PETROL AND NEVER BE ABLE TO CARRY OUT OUR DAY-TO-DAY TASKS; WHATEVER WILL WE DO?!?!?!
Shall I tell you what we will do? Nothing.
As a nation we've been through two World Wars; we've survived Maggie Thatcher and we've sat through a double dip recession. What do we, as British citizens, actually do about anything? We sit, we make a cup of tea, we take the next most convenient option, and we most certainly don't panic. Let the panic stay in America, let them keep the stereotype of crowds of running, screaming and looting. In Britain we are subdued, we pretend things aren't happening and we most certainly don't panic.
And pasties, God help us all, are being taxed. How could we ever survive? Oh, I know, we could ignore the additional price and just eat them because we like them. Out of the budget there are many things I could complain about; much like last year.
That said, what, if anything, is the point?
