Troops on the streets for fuel crisis?

Section three of the Energy Act 1976, gives Tony Blair and Westminster the power to control the supply of fuel across the country to essential services.

Services deemed "essential" include

                   schools
                   public transport
                   food delivery lorries
Blair COULD put troops on the streets to block LEGAL civil disobediance .... Blair must have learned from his Chinese friend from Beijing. Time Westminster stopped screwing EVERYONE from the corner grocer to the executive with punitive fuel taxes.
