FRANCE faces a petrol shortage as lorry drivers protesting about the high price of diesel continued to blockade fuel depots yesterday.

The action is being co-ordinated by the three biggest organisations representing large and small trucking firms in France - the Technomarine Watches Replica Federation Nationale des Transports Routiers ((FNTR), the Union Nationale des Organisations Syndicales des Transporteurs (Unostra) and the Federation des Entreprises de Transport et Logistique (FTLF).

They are angry that a series of planned tax reforms unveiled by Finance Minister Laurent Fabius last week appear to contain no measures designed to help truckers cope with high diesel prices.

On Monday, more than 50 key petrol distribution centres were sealed off by truckers. In some places, the hauliers were joined by farmers who are also protesting at high fuel prices. The action followed a blockade of Channel ports and the Channel Tunnel last week by fishermen.

Yesterday's action sparked a wave of panic buying at thousands of petrol stations as motorists rushed to fill up before supplies ran out.

The FNTR said yesterday that motorists should not be unduly concerned, as they would not feel the effects of the blockades immediately.

Analysts say the statement was designed to put pressure on the government to give in quickly to the trucking lobby's demands for more tax breaks.

FNTR spokesman Jean-Pierre Replica Jaeger LeCoultre Watch Deneuville said: "It's true that as we have decided to launch a tough, strong action. If there is no answer [from the government] there could indeed be problems at the end of the first week."

Prime Minister Lionel Jospin said in a weekend speech that "the government is prepared to consider specific measures for sector facing particular difficulties - I'm thinking particularly of fishermen and road transport".

The trucking companies want French diesel taxes brought into line with those levied on competitors in other EU countries. But the government had been planning to raise taxes on diesel to match those charged on petrol as part of a comprehensive plan to tackle global warming.

Fabius said last week that the planned increase would be Fake Rado Watches put off for a year. But this failed to pacify the truckers.

Lorry drivers already pay reduced taxes on their fuel as they are exempted from VAT. But the truckers insist that their operating expenses have increased massively human hair extensions over the past year, not only because of the huge hikes in the price of crude, but also because of the cost of switching to France's new 35-hour working week.

The FNTR added: "Even if overall the turnover for the profession has risen by between seven and eight percent, our costs have risen by around 15 per cent between the fuel problem and the arrival of the 35-hour week."

The lorry drivers are also angry that they will not benefit from the planned abolition of the 'vignette' road tax announced by the finance minister last week as the measure will only apply to private vehicles. Owners of large commercial vehicles will continue to have to pay road taxes of about 4,000 francs (pounds 400) a year.

When you see a designer handbag, do you only like it because of the designer name? If you saw it on another women’s shoulder without the designer logo visible would you still like it? For a lot of people (even though they won't admit it) the answer is no! The majority of people interested designer handbags these days do not know much about the bags themselves, all they know is a designer logo or name. If these people were to see a Fendi Handbag right in front of them they wouldn’t know it was a Fendi unless they could see the logo, therefore they would not like the bag as much. Its extremely frustrating for women who own authentic designer handbags to get comments like “oh I love your Prada Handbag” but in reality if the women making that comment didn’t see the logo on her bag she wouldn’t look twice at it. A lot of “handbag lovers” these days don’t like the bag itself, they just like the logo, and just because these people recognize a couple logos doesn’t make them handbag enthusiasts.
