A thread about protesters

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Maybe one gets splattered by an articulated lorry. Soon see a different strategy then

Maybe. It’s unlikely though unless the lorry driver also doesn’t mind spending time in prison.

If a nutter wants to stick himself to the road, they run the high risk of getting run over.

I think if this occured in darkness, a driver would have an argument of accidental death

Go for it. See how far you get.

Would be a lot easier just to announce a national drive to insulate all homes by a target date with more money for grants and a big ad campaign.

Probably turn out to be a lot cheaper than running battles with protestors and locking people up.

I mean, they are campaigning for something the Govt believes is necessary, so shouldn’t the Govt be supporting the Insulate Britain campaign?

All very odd.

Not sure govt and targets will pacify people unless they have been in a coma for years.

They all wear high vis jackets how would you not spot them in time unless driving in excess of the speed limit?

Can you prove that in a court of law?

It was dark your honour, I was doing 70 mph and by the time I saw them, I was not able to break in time

Unlikely if ambulances cant get through.

Youd be lucky to be doing 5mph.

This is a bit of a pointless hypothetical isn't it? Nobody in front of you already slowing down, no visibility, is there fog on the road?

Of course it's a pointless hypothetical, but if nutjobs want to stick themselves to motorways, they are a danger

Probably, but dialogue may have helped. Better than all this ‘lock ‘em up’ and ‘run them over with a truck’ bollocks.
