Didn't see a thing. No queues at petrol stations and plenty of fuel tankers driving up and down the motorways.

They have made it illegal to protest anywhere near parliament for any reason. It is also illegal to protest blocking any vital services, and fuel has been added to a growing list.

It also used to be the law that you could go anywhere without fear of trespass - you could not be prosecuted for walking anywhere. The signs 'trespassers will be prosecuted' was or is still illegal to display - however they have now made certain places a crime if you do walk into them.

So slowly laws are being brought in to restrict what we can and can't do freely.
