Re: Rideout / Fuel Protest in Manchester

Great stuff, I couldn't go this morning as I had me bike MOT at 9.30



I read that smoking weed destroys your brain cells - so I gave up reading

Oh how I wish I'd been there! Wonder if it'll do any good?

probably not.the politicians and the media keep carping on about the price of oil and seem to be skirting the real issue which is the amount of tax on every litre of petrol

It was a great feeling and went off really well, with only a few bikes overheating and no trouble ... but willl it do any good .......NO the only way is for every individual in the country who has a vote to write to their MP and say clearly "look mate, if you dont do something about the level of tax on fuel, which is affecting all of us - your voters - we wont vote for you in the next election"

OR

get above 51% of the voting public to give a vote of no confidence and force the theiving whotsist out now

(hear the knees n back creaking as I climb down off my soapbox - getting old y'know ....... yes dearest maccymoo, I know I know )

Im so sorry ... I think you've mistaken me for somebody who gives a F%^K
