He unscrewed the petrol tank of his car and a jerry can of fuel was given to him.

Scholes daughter captioned the video, “Last time u can have a go at me for having no petrol, Paul Scholes.”

This is coming amid the acute fuel scarcity in the United Kingdom.

The scarcity has been attributed to the lack of drivers for petrol tankers.

Meanwhile, 150 troops started training to drive petrol tankers.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has put the military on standby in a desperate bid to end the fuel chaos.

Fuel suppliers have predicted demand will return to normal by the end of the week.
