You would think that would be the case. Basically this all started by one person that works in the industry saying that there is a may be a shortage of fuel which sparked this whole thing.

But there are a few conspiracy theories floating about that they wanted this to happen because nobody was going out during lockdown and so they wanted to sell the petrol before it ran out of date because there is an expire date on petrol

That's a very interesting theory, and very plausible. Any hard proof behind it?

Not that I know of, but that is what makes it a conspiracy theory.
