"I see they have barricaded some Mc Donald’s distribution Centres with bamboo structures am I the only one thinking that just one cut on the ropes at the bottom and way cleared Trying to force people to go veggie is really not going to work! More options is fine but these people are wack jobs " Totally agree with you there. | |||

"I see they have barricaded some Mc Donald’s distribution Centres with bamboo structures am I the only one thinking that just one cut on the ropes at the bottom and way cleared Trying to force people to go veggie is really not going to work! More options is fine but these people are wack jobs " Well said . These demonstrators are simply thugs and criminals who do not care about anyone else but themselves . Most people would just write to their local newspaper or maybe express their opinions on various forums . Members of the public have no interest i what these people have to say so they ( the demonstrations) resort to intimidation and violence. Why should people be deprived of food because of a few people like this . MacDonalds staff could potential lose pay and the third party carrier delivered food will incur additional expenses . In situations like this the police should be allowed to use any degree of force necessary to allow the vehicles through . An additional measure would be to stop any payment of benefits to them and for those who had assets , seizure of them to reimburse the company or Mac Donalds for any lost profits. Mac Donalds are a great employer and should not have to tolerate this type of action . I cannot see many members of the public caring about what happen to the people demonstrating . I am sure most lorry drivers know the action necessary - it is a shame it cannot be put into practice . | |||

It was an example of how protests need to cause disruption to get anything done. People who want to bring about change have to do more than write a strongly worded letter. Personally, I don't have the energy to have an opinion on what anyone else eats. But I support the protesters because they are trying to bring about a positive change. you support them there’s a shock lol there a bunch of fucking idiots in my opinion It's fine that you don't give a fuck about the planet, but it's kind of silly to ridicule people who do. did I say I don’t give a fuck about the planet ? I don’t give a fuck about the protestors that’s a different thing mate how many of them come from working class back grounds woth jobs mortgages kids ? They all seem to be uni drop outs or older people who’s kids have left home with no purpose in life who rather lost there way or haven’t yet found it white to much time on there hands just my opinion I asked you a while back do protests actually change anything Not sure what their background has to do with it. But yeah you did, and I gave you loads of examples of how protests changes things. " there backgrounds are maybe the reason there lost mate and how do they have the time and money to fund these trips all over to protest the average joe doesn’t have the time mate and you give me the suffragettes as an example I don’t think you gave me more than one your welcome to now tho ? | |||

"Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill 2021 will deal with this kind of selfish behaviour. Exactly. Some people think it's a good idea to make it illegal to speak up. But it’s stopping others going about their law-full business which in its self is wrong, protest is fine but holding others up is not. That's how a protest works. If it doesn't cause disruption, its ignored. Personally I think climate change is a more important issue than some fella not being able to have a big Mac just this one time. " It’s an unrealistic protest because they are trying to get a fast food supplier to go fully plant based by 2025 never going to happen. And they do not intent for it to be for one day | |||

So are you saying that it is acceptable for a few hundred people to prevent people visiting Mac Donald's because they think people should not eat meat compared to the vast numbers of law abiding citizens who visit Mac Donald's on a daily basis . ? That does not seem like democracy to me . As yet, protesting is not illegal. So yes, in my view legal protesting is "ok"" protesting fine illegally stopping someone doing there job wrong no matter what they believe in I'd have certainly moved them. | |||

"I see they have barricaded some Mc Donald’s distribution Centres with bamboo structures am I the only one thinking that just one cut on the ropes at the bottom and way cleared Trying to force people to go veggie is really not going to work! More options is fine but these people are wack jobs Well said . These demonstrators are simply thugs and criminals who do not care about anyone else but themselves . Most people would just write to their local newspaper or maybe express their opinions on various forums . Members of the public have no interest i what these people have to say so they ( the demonstrations) resort to intimidation and violence. Why should people be deprived of food because of a few people like this . MacDonalds staff could potential lose pay and the third party carrier delivered food will incur additional expenses . In situations like this the police should be allowed to use any degree of force necessary to allow the vehicles through . An additional measure would be to stop any payment of benefits to them and for those who had assets , seizure of them to reimburse the company or Mac Donalds for any lost profits. Mac Donalds are a great employer and should not have to tolerate this type of action . I cannot see many members of the public caring about what happen to the people demonstrating . I am sure most lorry drivers know the action necessary - it is a shame it cannot be put into practice . I believe the suffragettes only finally got the vote after penning several letters to the times.So making people stop eating meat is the same as women voting is the same to you? wow Super lolsWhy have you brought the suffragettes into this debate then what have they to do with it? It was an example of how protests need to cause disruption to get anything done. People who want to bring about change have to do more than write a strongly worded letter. Personally, I don't have the energy to have an opinion on what anyone else eats. But I support the protesters because they are trying to bring about a positive change. you support them there’s a shock lol there a bunch of fucking idiots in my opinion It's fine that you don't give a fuck about the planet, but it's kind of silly to ridicule people who do. did I say I don’t give a fuck about the planet ? I don’t give a fuck about the protestors that’s a different thing mate how many of them come from working class back grounds woth jobs mortgages kids ? They all seem to be uni drop outs or older people who’s kids have left home with no purpose in life who rather lost there way or haven’t yet found it white to much time on there hands just my opinion I asked you a while back do protests actually change anything Not sure what their background has to do with it. But yeah you did, and I gave you loads of examples of how protests changes things. there backgrounds are maybe the reason there lost mate and how do they have the time and money to fund these trips all over to protest the average joe doesn’t have the time mate and you give me the suffragettes as an example I don’t think you gave me more than one your welcome to now tho ? I gave you about ten. And you didn't like them. I've no intention of wasting any more time. So if the protester's were working class and happened to live next door to the McDonald's they were protesting at. Would that somehow gain your approval?i didn’t like them lol I’m fucked if I can remember any of em mate it wouldn’t gain my approval it would just shock the life out of me because the average working class person doesn’t try to force people to think the same as them " I think you'll find that the majority of protests that have brought about change have been led by the working class. I don't know why you think working class people should know their place and not be involved in social change. Its pretty weird. | |||

"Well at least the working class people of bolton would have had somewhere scenic to go. And Levers family and staff wouldnt have been put in any danger. Still, at least it saved the cost of a postage stamp. She burnt the place down not even knowing anything about the place. What has direct action ever really done in this country? The only way to get things done is to shame a government into it. Antagonising the general public will just make them dig their heels in and throw more abuse at the hippies. Suffragettes Inner city riots in the 80s Poll tax riots Clapham common...possibly Off the top of my head Ok, I will give you the Suffragettes the Inner city riots changed nothing, they just ran out of steam and everything carried on as it was. The poll tax was scrapped because the legal system was swamped by thousands of us that refused to pay. Clapham common has changed nothing just like greenback common didn't or swampy and his friends. In the west it's money that affects change. Use your spending power wisely and you can topple multinationals. Antagonising restaurant goers won't get McDonald's to change their business model. They are catering to their customers demands. Alter the demand and see how McDonald's change their menu. It's been done before and that's how you got veggie burgers. But it's naive to think they can force a change with the majority of the country in strong disagreement with them. Agree totally with that if there is no demand there will be no need for supply just pissing people off by trying to force your opinion never works in fact it counter productive." McDonalds do veggie food too so they can also be affected by such actions | |||
