BP claims that as of yesterday, British petrol stations had run out of two main grades of fuel due to panic buying. This has forced the government to allow brands and firms to work together to relieve shortage pressure, suspending competition laws.

It is expected that this fuel crisis will have a detrimental impact for weeks to come, but how will it affect you and your clients?
