Disclaimer & comment rulesSorry? Didn't a certain someone say last week that the strike was over? Seems it's not. Don't these 'reports' only refer to the federal highways? What about other roads?

How long will it be before the protesters get the smart idea of blocking a road for three or four hours until there's a sizeable tailback and then moving to a different point. That would have the federal highway police chasing their tails!
