French bikers block the street en masse

The French are excellent at getting their point across to the powers that be.

The French Govt is somewhat afraid of the French people because of it. How it should be IMHO.

We're way too quick to just bend over here, not so much out of fear of the govt more out of apathy it seems.

think you will find that the real reason is actually to do with generations of distrust on both sides....we are such a new country with a benign history in comparison

What was the Bike protest years ago at Hyde Park London?...do you remember?.
Was talking to a mate some time ago who attended and he said it took 2-3 hours to clear the park afterwards?
A constant stream of bikes.

Not sure but the usual one in Londinium is for parking charges etc, we've had loads but apart from a bit of disruption on the day very little is ever resolved.
