Anyway this protest isn't about fuel tax but about the lack of support for the diesel using lorry drivers.Who I think do have a point.They are facing competition from the continetal lorry drivers who all get concessions and pay lower fuel taxes and this government promised to look at the situation after the last lot of trouble in 2001 but just forgot about it.However I thinking blockading won't solve anything and won't get the government doing anything.
