I thought the last fuel protested died a death because the government agreed to sort the hauliers out elsewhere?
No
Tony bliar told a lot of lies about hospitals short of fuel and the lorry drivers backed off
Fuel duty didn't drop
Brown reduced tractor tax from £35 to zero big deal

The whole world is f**ked.. sooner we have a world war and get it all out in the open over and done with the better 🤦‍♂️ What’s another nail in the coffin ontop of all the other shaftings that every day people seem to get these days 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good idea or bad? I can’t decide. Admire them for trying but should we all be protesting?
The photo is of a previous protest back in about 2000 I think. @nick... will recognise the sprayer.
planned event is for around Newcastle I think ?
Edit, seem it was this weekend just gone in Newcastle. Anyone local, did they get much support ?
totally pointless ive nothing against what the lad is trying too do but cant see who has took the slightlest bit of notice ???
Fuel is 50% more than it was 20 yr ago get over it thats what it will have too be things have moved on.
Far greater things too worry about
