Date: Monday, December 3, 2007
Time: 7:00am - 10:00am
Location: M25
City/Town: London, United Kingdom

The Government have not listened to the public and continue to expect us to pay an extortionate amount of tax on fuel. This really is one course of action that has been proven to work. I know some of you may have doubts about this type of protest but we must act together for this to have any affect. The idea is to perform a rolling road block on Monday 3d December during the morning rush somewhere between the Gatwick and Heathrow junctions of the M25 and back again (leaving the hard shoulder clear for emergency services). Please only join the event if you are genuinley interested. I would especially like to hear from any haulage drivers that would be willing to take part. I'll post further updates nearer the time!





Just come across this on another site,thought i would post it up here incase people aint seen it

 

 

the m25 is one bog rolling road block


agreed something needs to be done

 

Nice one!
If I wasn't working I'd do it but then I can't afford the fuel to get there

 

I'm doing it.

We're all meeting at the Shell Petrol station in Egham to fill up before it starts!



What a load of sweaty bollocks.

 

As i said above,it was just incase it does happen!!

 

M25 at that time of the morning always used to be slow as fuck, so whats the point?

 

Did this happen in the end?
Did it cause much chaos?

 

mk1_orion_boy

Did it fuck, it would of been plastered all over the news if it had happened.

 

Great idea, id be part of it if i lived closer

Come on lads that are near, get your arse down there and block that motorway

 

Yeah it needs to be done again and again till more people hear about it.
Any we hate fuel prices forums out there?

 

aint it just called traffic

 

kept listening to the traffic reports and heard fook all

 

like ppl wer saying about using leading garages like slel and bp etc iv stopped now and use sainsburys in hope will catch on as something needs doing , hopefully if boycotted prices may drop

 

Oh no, it did actually happen..... Was one of the biggest organised vehicular based protests in UK history - a good couple hundred vehicles showed up to take part!

Actually, 30,000 other vehicles showed up aswell. They weren't part of the official "road block" but due to numbers, the traffic did indeed move at a snails pace all morning.

All in all, a very successfull protest!

 

but how does this work? ok ur causing mayhem but your still using petrol etc (even more so taking part) so taxes which we are protesting against are being payed? why not turn engines of for 24 hours on m25 or something? would cause mayhem

 

It's as pointless as the "boycott" days, when people boycott going to petrol stations. Nice one, you didn't go in a petrol station for a week. Thing is at the end of the week, you couldn't get in to one cos every other fucker was in there trying to fill up cos they had used all the petrol they had during the boycott Really worked that one

 

just park cars up on strike, they cant tow 1000's of cars away and wouldnt be safe for a warden to ticket them lol

 

What? It would'nt be safe for a parking warden to walk round a bunch of non-moving vehicles?

What do you think they do all day?

 

well if there's a load of people protesting id imagine they'd get angry with a scum bag trying to issue tickets to them trying to get his comission up?

 

I can picture it now

 

about the M25

 

just have a meet up in parliment square one day
if everyones going ot the same place it'll cause loads of gridlock and the pollution will poison all them old fookers in parliment

 

How could they give you a ticket?
There were no double yellow lines round the midddle of the m25 last time I looked

 

 

fair enoug lol, i was thinking along the lines for refusing to move, but gues still wouldnt but whats worse police could do against such large number? probally just sit it out

 

they'd be sitting on the hard shoulder eating doughnuts *

*for the benifit of our recent alleged american purchaers,** we have bits of road that you are not allowed to drive on on our motorways (freeway's/highways) as they are reserved for football managers and local politicans to use as they are greater than us mere mortals

**if pet still owns the site then i can imagine they'll be eating clairs or the like
