ALL OUT for ANTI - WAR protests

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Saturday February 15, 2003 00:00author by Bernadette mary

Northern Irish people voice their concern at petrol hikes of over 15p per litre petrol to pay for stupid pointless wars in far off foreign soils. Do we really want to pay another 15p per litre petrol? car/lorry/commercial haulage workers, are planning to join tomorrows protest against the war in Iraq.

A 15p petrol price hike is on the cards for the general public and tax payers to pay for Tony and Bush's pointless war mongering in far off foreign soils. As usual we the taxpayers will be expected to foot the bill and finance Tony and Bush play their expensive strategic war games, and play at being toy soldiers engaged in petty military posturing, and manuovering. The roadusers and motor vehicle alliance who sucessfully picketed petrol stations to protest against last years petrol hikes, will be joining the anit-war protests tomorrow.

A 15p petrol hike, will damage the local economy, putting many haulage firms, taxis and other motor vehicle users out of buisness. It will cost too much to run lorries, taxis, coach firms etc.
