Rejected petition Government apology for causing unnecessary “panic buying” at UK forecourts and the resignation of Francis Maude.

More details

David Cameron should both acknowledge and apologise for causing unnecessary “panic buying” at UK forecourts. This should be coupled with Francis Maude's immediate resignation or sacking over his awful, stupendously poor judgement advising members of the public to store fuel at home in jerry cans. This week has shown a clear demonstration of inept individuals in this country’s government!
