That's More Like It...

Tom and Tommy have been having a back and forth about protesting over the last week or so; a tiff I’ve wandered into from time to time.

While Tommy attests to a perfect right to protest whatever you want (something we don't disagree with) I generally agree with Tom that while protest is all well and good in and of itself, it’s better if it’s effective or if it at least annoys the people you’re protesting about.


That is why I found this a much better example of practical protest than the controversial and, some would say, utterly daft “cricket blockades”.

Yes, I was just saying yesterday how that was fine by me. It's not the protesting I was against with the cricket, just the direction of it.
