Default Warning (france) fuel!!!

Fuel is being rationed due to a strike by tanker drivers who are blockading the depots. You are being rationed to 20L at the pump per car. So any one traveling to France, fill up before you get on the ferry and if your here get some quick before they run out

But surely a strike in France would be a strike in France whether the UK is in the EU or not
