In total, 20 petrol tanks were involved in the fire, each said to hold three million gallons of fuel.


It's amazing and fortunate nobody was killed outright in a blast that size!

Obviously this fire will have an economic effect in terms of property damage, but what effect will the potential loss of up to 60 million gallons of fuel have on consumers at the pump?

Foreigners bring value, Laz, so the tax should be named appropriately.  Like, say, some sort of "Value Added" tax.

happened at 6am, doubt it very much.  unless they get cctv footage from the industrial estate it is on.

the 2nd and 3rd ones were miniscule compared to the first, i think they were caught on tape.

it is an absolute miracle that no one was killed.

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to have it be a value removed tax??
