trooper 940 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) One of my daughter in laws has been sent this just for anyone travelling on the A1 this afternoon around 3.30 pm its going to be a nightmare by the looks of things they're hoping to jam the whole A1 North & South bound. Apparently they're joining the A1 at Stannington Southbound at 3.30. There's another group leaving Scotch Corner at 4.30 heading North bound. The plan is to link up at the next available junction & head South Edited June 17, 2022 by trooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBass 2181 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Wonder how much additional fuel the average protestor is going to burn during this fuel protest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34157 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 I bet the Venn diagram of those participating and those that voted for the Brexit that tanked the pound and caused this (see ewerk's post in the Politics thread) is a near perfect circle. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 38532 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 If they’re hitting The Western Bypass at 3:30pm or thereabouts, they’ll be lucky to hit 30mph tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30224 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Aye. People who normally use the A1 at this time won’t even notice the diffference. It’s nearly always a pain in the arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
