Conor gurgled happily, sounding much like they
were saying:

So why can't Large British Artics use 2,000 litre tanks, too?

Are you ****ing stupid? You save £2-400 on the fuel but it costs you
£250 in wages, £40 in subsistence allowance, £100 in ferry fares, £30 in
diesel getting to and from the port and the loss of revenue as the wagon
isn't available for THREE DAYS as it's sat crossing the North Sea.

Yeah...really worth it isn't it?

SO HOW COME IT'S SO MUCH CHEAPER IF THE TRUCK HAS A POLISH PLATE ON IT?

THE TRUCK HAS DRIVEN THE SAME DISTANCE FROM THAT CHEAP PUMP TO HOWDEN'S
FACTORY. IT HAS CROSSED THE WATER WITH THE SAME LIKELIHOOD OF A LOAD
HEADING OUT OF THE UK.

The only difference is the pay for the driver - and since British truck
drivers are on more than minimum wage, the minimum wage legislation isn't
relevant. Corporation tax isn't relevant if the company isn't making a
profit, either.
