The tension in the supply of fuel in no way justifies the jump in prices at some gas stations. We do not allow artificially inflated prices. I urged DGCCRF to act. Inspections take place in @hautsdefrance https://t.co/RXJWH912tA

Can the situation really calm down? It may well be so. If a few days ago, more than 28% of service stations experienced problems with supply, today this number would drop to only 17%. A very clear development, which should clearly please motorists. As more than a fortnight had passed since the latter had been put in difficulty by a strike which didn’t seem to want to end. Indeed, traffic continued to resume at several refineries and warehouses in the four corners of France. But now everything is calming down little by little.

Incorrect number
However, it is important to note that this 17% figure should not be taken literally either. Indeed, this is even widely debated and may not necessarily reflect reality. Some service stations do not report their data on a daily basis Ministry of Ecological Transition, which could distort the announced numbers. However, there is an overall improvement, as queues in front of pumping stations are now slightly shorter. Several oil sites also called off the strike and resumed operations.

A movement that continues
However, the movement continues Honfreville (Seine-Maritime), where they voted for a strike until October 27. The date is not chosen by chance, because it is here that TotalEnergies will publish its 3rd quarter results. And this should surely ignite the powder, even though the company has been doing very well for several months. Enough to anger workers who are demanding a 10% pay rise.
