Moonbattery Causing Gas Crisis in Scotland
The worldwide shortage of oil, an inevitable consequence of moonbatty restrictions on drilling and refining, is approaching crisis proportions in Scotland.
A union representing 1,200 employees at the Ineos refinery is exploiting the situation by choosing next week to walk off the job to extort higher pensions. Employing the typical leftist tactic of calling the kettle black, union officials have accused the refinery's operator of "economic terrorism."
The good news is that a few people are starting to understand that gas prices would be much more manageable if government weren't so greedy. Observes Mark Francis of the People's Fuel Lobby:
We are getting taxed to the hilt to pay for unnecessary spending by this government.
Already there has been panic buying of the sort that set off a full-scale crisis in 2000.
Soon people will have to choose between fuel and moonbattery. If we let our governments choose for us, the choice will be moonbattery.
On a tip from Wiggins.

The choice is going to be between fuel for the wealthy nations and food for the poor nations.

Um, isn't this article about a strike closing the refinery?
So how is drilling for more oil going to solve the strike?
Please explain your logic.
Extra credit: Show who profits from the strike.
