    Obviously you’ve never had your journey blocked by these nob-heads…if you have well you must be masochist.

        Which might be the back of an ambulance…or perhaps you are going to see a relative who is dying… but hey who cares about that?

        Perhaps you don’t value your time or the safety of those around you. But there are those of us who do.

        I have no problem with protests but when you directly affect or impede people who have nothing to do with what you’re protesting it is a very serious issue. In this case it is equal to a conspiracy to kidnap someone.

              You sound desperate and cringey

              Says the person who thinks inconvenience should be illegal.

              Freedom of movement implies the freedom not to move (while in the middle of a road), not the freedom from temporary obstructions.

                Interesting… so what are your thoughts on the practice of Kettling then? Police have used this tactic on protests that were properly permitted but may run afoul of the incumbent parties views.

                Using your logic this seems like it is just a small inconvenience for the protesters.

                  Awwh, you think being detained by cops is the same thing as road closures? Next time they start doing construction are you gonna file kidnapping charges? XD

                    It was a simple question which you’ve decided to not answer and instead make a snide remark.

                    So I’ll ask it again what are your feelings on the practice of Kettling? It seems like if you’re ok with being illegally detained by protesters, you would be just as ok with being illegally detained by police?

                    Road closures are not
