Well...according to the Telegraph (and no, I dont give a shit about right/left wing newspapers OK) protesters are looking to blockade Dover again and do these go-slow protests, which essentially dont let anyone off the motorway so theyre blockading them too.
And by students I meant in their parents car...I doubt every student has their own car.
People will blame anyone who seems to be unpopular at that time. By that statement I meant that the blockaders are doing something about it but not in the best manner....yet I dont really see anyone else standing up and fighting against it. At the end of the day, its not the blockaders who put the prices up and their demonstrations will not last as long as the governments increase in fuel prices (I hope anyway!)
And like most eco-friendly people, Id love to use public transport but for the reasons Grokit mentioned, and others theres a long way to go before I even feel safe, let alone feel its a justified price and actually takes me where I need to go. Unfortunately, living where I do its more often than not impossible to go anywhere without driving. When I move to Bristol, Ill have my car with me but use PT as much as possible.
