    ANOTHER brawl breaks out in queue for the pumps while 'morons' illegally fill-up bucket lined with BIN BAG at Shell station... as Army begins training to drive tankers today amid fears crisis will last a MONTH

    D As drivers queued through the night outside petrol stations for the sixth day running, ever-increasing swathes of the economy and public services also continued to be hit with school buses cancelled, blood deliveries stopped, nurses sleeping on wards and up to a third of London 's black cabs now parked up with empty tanks. Tensions are again running high motorists accused each other of jumping queues or taking too much fuel with the latest violence taking place in Epping, Essex, yesterday. The fight spilled out into the traffic as one man involved said repeatedly: 'You didn't need it', while throwing punches and kicks before other drivers broke them up. While such is the desperation for petrol, and the shortage of jerry cans, footage has emerged of two men filling a bucket lined with a black binliner with unleaded. The illegal move is highly dangerous, with the fuel certain to dissolve the bag and likely to melt the bucket, with social media users questioning why the owners of the Shell garage failed to intervene. Others pointed out that the man holding the pump had a mask on to protect him from Covid-19, but didn't appear concerned one spark could see him engulfed in flames. Speaking for the first time as the crisis approached a week, Boris Johnson last night urged frustrated drivers to remain calm yesterday as violent scenes compared to the 'Wild West' erupted at petrol stations around the country. Fist fights are regularly breaking out and one driver even threatening another with a knife. The ugly confrontations led to fears among police chiefs that officers may be drafted in to guard garages if the crisis continues.
