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.

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

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

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.
