We are going to hit close to 89p a litre by the summer.

> But to have an impact, we need to reach literally

> you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
> Again, all You have to do is send this to 10 people.
> That's all (and not buy at ESSO/BP).
>
> How long would all that take? If each of us sends this

> all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted

> and I had that much potential, did you! Acting together

>
> PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE 69p
> a LITRE RANGE

> Action:
> It's easy to make this happen. Just forward this email,

> Morrisons (75p), Jet etc. i.e. Boycott BP and Esso.
