were the words I heard uttered by the Heathrow Director (120.4) the other morning when an aircraft, when told that the hold at BIG was 20mins, said, "I don't have fuel for that".... ATC then asked, "are you declaring an emergency" .. I then didn't hear how this situation resolved as I had to press on myself but it made me realise that despite all our pprune talk about sufficient fuel there are still airlines (and the voice was british) who seem to think that by implying a pressure on fuel they will be queue-jumped!
