Advantages: Lower fuel!
Disadvantages: plan your journeys to avoid the protest!
At last some action on fuel prices, today truckers formed a rolling roadblock on the A1 and have promised there’s more to come! As its Illegal to block the UK highways a slow moving roadblock is the only option and indeed has a certain sense of irony as the slower the government is to react the slower the traffic will get. Don't get mad with these guys support them! If everyone gets behind these protests then we will get the tax on petrol lowered and no that doesn't mean cutting health or education spending, that is pure scare mongering from Mr Blair! The recent increase in Crude Oil prices have brought in an unexpected boost for the treasury in VAT payments, which gives them scope to cut tax on fuel. If you want to know what you can do check out www.boycott-the-pumps.com or join the lights on Monday campaign (more details in the motors forum). We don’t have to put up with the most expensive petrol in Europe anymore Hopefully this will be a short sharp shock to the government as it starts to experience motorist rage!
