Black Lives Matter protesters block entry to Heathrow
 

Protesters from the Black Lives Matter campaign brought transport routes around the UK to a standstill this morning as part of their campaign for a 'nationwide shutdown'.

Pictures tweeted by angry motorists and air passengers show a banner unfurled across the approach road to Heathrow airport's terminals one, two and three this morning.

Protests have also targeted Birmingham airport and the tram system in Nottingham in what the group called a 'nationwide shutdown'.
The demonstrations look set to cause chaos at one of the busiest times of the year, as hundreds of families head off on their summer holidays.

Yay stop people from going about their business, or on holiday, this is a great way to endear a cause to the public

So they're basically going to hold people and their plans hostage until they're listened to... sounds familiar.

Oh god please not the trams in Nottingham the country will surely grind to a halt. :umm2:

Fair enough they NEED to be heard and something needs to be done but this is just a bit stupid
Who is gonna be like
You know what, since the group prevented me and my family from going on our holiday I will nkw support or join them
Marches down streets is better there's ways around that but it's still a way to be heard

they should take their fight to the USA

The woman on far right in the picture 2 posts above looks a lot like my hairdresser.

Ring up see if you can get an appointment :hehe:

Lmao.

Er what are these idiots protesting about over here?I mean we don't even have armed police:shrug:

Maybe the recent event of a white girlfriend shouting that her boyfriend did nothing wrong as he was being roughed up by the police caused this new protest. I don't know


But this should be taken as support. Like people got together here for Orlando.

I don't understand how this is benefiting them? Whats the point in targeting thousands of people and tourists trying to go on their holidays they've earned? This is just dumb, at least do something thats aimed to get people on side

Arrest The Punks


All Lives Matter

All lives matter including Black lives

For sure

........

This is the British public though, no matter what they do they're never gonna get the public on their side lets be honest :laugh:

Of course all lives matter but everyone knows that white peoples lives matter they are not killed or disadvantaged for being white.
It's just like there's no real need for straight pride or white history month

! :wavey:

All this has done is make people angry and inconvenienced. It hasn't helped any cause, the system isn't the same here as it is in the US. I hope people block off all routes to the Notting Hill Carnival this year. Quid pro quo.
