Recommended Posts

I was just about to post something similar.

Dont know if anybody is interested in this. It seems to be heading to be more down south but if there is enough in the north, it might come up this far.

Incase you dont know, its to do with all Newage STi's new road tax cost will be £440 next year and £455 the year after. All Newage WRX's new road tax cost will be Between £300-415 next year & £310-£430 the year after that.

Might do no good at all but its worth a shot.

Here is a petition to sign to try to show a face to the government

Pass it around to all you know as it has worked in the past.

Cheers,

yeh read it and fully understood... signed.. we are all in the same boat so best we all unite and hit em were it hurts.....

just a thought>> the amount of shows ect.. during the season japfest, jae kind of occasions is there a way we can show the concern and feeling of this amongst the seperate club stands ect.. few flags, banners, car stickers (at a price to a good cause :occasion14:) all in good taste of course and nothing to interupt the shows, good publicicty...it seems in the past we all shout and rant that we do this and do that but in the end we sit and wait for others....it's not going to happen is it?.. i think if we shout loud enough as a combined group and keep at it... someone may listen..

didn't the fuel prices go up during the first gulf war?..when iraq invaded kuwait and melted the depots and rigs... the only peeps who are not suffering with the prices it seems are the ones who captured kuwait back... cunning.. still at it now aren't they.

Mark, we liberated Kuwait mate! The Brits were first across the border into Wadi Al Batin i remember it well. But i do agree that the yanks are still getting there cheap fuel!

Nothing will get done about the road tax no matter how much people shout! Dont want to pay that much then you will have to change your motor.

May seem negative but at the end of the day its reality!

One reason for Iraq...OIL...sooner or later the UK will have civil unrest....why.....when the oil is no longer getting through and the trucks/trains/boats can't deliver food, water, supplies etc, people will panic and the 'BLEEP' will hit the fan!!! We rely on oil which in some shape or form is a massive part of our lives....it's a grim outlook but it's no surprise the 'BLEEPING' politicians are worried and panicing!!!!! :occasion14:

I agree, lets protest......but the outcome must be one that makes the govt sit up and take note........not a 10 minute blockade of a public WC in London but, (Wash my mouth out with soap) like the French, take no deals....just tell the

m what WE WANT!!!!!! :banana:

Thats sound like a good plan,

We'd need to raise funds as I doubt anybody will be willing to stump the money in the first place.

I can get stickers made easy enough, from sun strip style (easy removeable) or bumper stickers.

I could design this and get a price but my art work is very basic ;)

I'll suggest this on Snet and see what the responce is.

Like you say, we need to work together on this and forget whos from what site driving which cars.
