The following statement is released on 10th December 2007 at 10:15Hrs

Transaction2007 have decided to release the date and time of protest action earlier than scheduled. This is to enable the motorist and public to better prepare themselves for the coming action.

A date of Saturday 15th December 2007 at 10:00am has been decided for protest action. This date was decided by members as the best possible to enable those who would normally be working during the week to attend. This action will be initiated at a refinery or storage depot somewhere near you. Anyone wishing to support action is requested to make your way there at the alotted time. Transaction again wish to emphasise the importance of legal protesting.

For any of our UK members who wish to take part, please follow the link below.

Gee guys, at first I thought you setting up a protest about the upcoming Led Zepplin concert! LOL! Imagine my chagrin!
Heck, I didn't even know I had a chagrin!

I noticed several articles mentioned VAT (Value Added Tax)? If that's the case where's the Value by adding more TAX unless
the Value is meant solely for the government (and her Majesty). Hey, that Buckingham place is pretty big...someone has to
help heat it!

On this side of the big ditch we have our own problems...
Our President has us fighting a war we can't win
Our political system is running like a wheel with missing spokes
Our borders operate much like sieves
Our fuel costs keep climbing
Our social, moral, educational, religious establishments are under constant scrutiny and litigation

But...one can still get a fairly nice breakfast burrito at McDonalds for a dollar!

To quote a famous newscaster:
"And that's the way it is..."

In the world of AI, it's the thought that counts!

Hmm...where oh where do I begin?

We know bro, our last useless leader joined you to help make it look 'more legal'....its affecting us just as much as you :(

Quote
Our political system is running like a wheel with missing spokes
Least you have one, we now live in a totalitarian dictatorship...funny...they just removed two of those from power in middle europe...

Quote
Our borders operate much like sieves
What borders? We give homes, TV's, heat and  money to terrorists :(

Quote
Our fuel costs keep climbing
Sorry Art but this one made me chuckle...when you pay the equivalent of $2 a litre for fuel...then you can complain (65% of it tax btw)

Quote
Our social, moral, educational, religious establishments are under constant scrutiny and litigation
We have lost all those...unless its translated into Urdu for the deaf and blind...we have no establishments anymore...its not allowed.


And after that...some people (not here btw) still question and wonder why I'm so apposed to our government, so much so in fact I'm prepared to take time out of my life to stand up for myself and protest against the people in power.

DAMN, our current leader wasnt even voted in by the people, he was ushered in on a red carpet by his own party...we had no say in at all..and people still dont agree we in the UK live in a totaliatarian state..the 51st state to be more accurate...just under rule by a different government.

I love your motto...'In God We Trust'...funny that...if he actually existed...he must have deserted us or forgotten about us to let this crap happen to us.

My rant over...if your in the UK...go to the website in my first post and show us some support  ;)
