⛽️❓Where did all our petrol stations go?

The threats currently facing forecourts follow decades of decline and consolidation as stations seek to reinvent themselves

telegraph.co.uk/business/2021/…
📉The total number of petrol stations in the UK declined from 37,500 in 1970 to 8,591 at the end of 2014.

➡️About 176 petrol stations closed each year in the decade to 2014
⛽️While the pattern of falling pump numbers has been repeated across Europe, the UK still has thousands fewer stations than Italy, Germany, Spain and France
Several forecourts have closed this week amid panic-buying of petrol, triggered by mild fuel shortages due to a shortage of tank drivers to deliver the liquid good.

⛽️Increasingly, however, fuel is not the main reason for visits to the local petrol station
BP, which has a tie-up with Marks & Spencer, said in 2017 that half of visitors to its sites do not buy fuel.

⚡️Forecourt owners are now seeking to build on that trend in the era of the electric car
telegraph.co.uk/business/2021/…
Petrol station owners globally are trying ever more creative ways to keep and monetise business as the electric car era looms
🥫Higher margin food, drinks, snacks and services such as car washes, however, are a good way of keeping customers’ attention and getting them to open wallets
⛽️ Has your local petrol station closed down in recent years?

Here's the latest on the global tech outage from reporter @matthfield:

Television channels, airports and banks around the world have been knocked offline in a massive outage causing Windows computers to suddenly shut down.
Sky News’s breakfast show was not on air on Friday morning, replaced by archive footage.

Downdetector, a website which monitors outages, reported sudden spikes in problems with websites including Microsoft applications, banking websites and airline apps.
On Ryanair’s website, the company urged passengers to arrive at airports three hours early blaming a “third party IT issue, which is outside Ryanair’s control and affect all airlines operating across the network”.

Confused about Twitter's X rebrand?

Our Senior Technology Reporter @GazTheJourno will be here from 1pm today to answer all of your questions!

Drop them below 👇 Image
✍️ @GazTheJourno: Elon Musk has always wanted to create a company called X.

The first X was in fact an online bank he set up in the late 1990s - and its CEO was Peter Thiel. That company later became PayPal and was bought by eBay in 2002.
@GazTheJourno 🗣️ @GazTheJourno: Twitter’s blue bird logo has been with the site since its creation in 2006. Its branding has always been twee(t!), featuring the bird doing cutesy things including lifting up the fail whale on its ‘site over capacity’ page back in the 2010s… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
