MAY I suggest, that instead of leaving everything to speculation as to whether the public at large are fully behind the farmers and hauliers, pending their threatened re-blockade, that we go whole hog and tell them not to blockade.
Instead they should campaign for all vehicle users to put their vehicles in their garages, take out their 'tax discs' and send them in for refunds, leaving only those vehicles in use that are vital to the upkeep and the smooth running of our economy.
Will not this tell our smarmy politicos just what we think of their unfair practices? Could we not also include the demand for more help for our OAPs -- they are, after all, our mothers, fathers, and grandparents.
