UK freedom convoy: Long line of vehicles takes to M5 in protest
A convoy of protesters has taken to the M5 to campaign for "freedom and human rights choice" in solidarity with truckers campaigning in Ottawa, Canada.
A long line of vehicles decorated with protest banners and flags have been seen coming out of Exeter Moto services and then heading onto the M5 today (February 5).
People have also been seen protesting on bridges and waving flags.
The protest is expected to head through Somerset towards Bristol, and at around 1pm protesters had stopped at a service station near Taunton.
An eyewitness who saw the convoy said: "There were loads of cars with Canadian flags and Great Britain flags. Loads of people were on the bridges with flags too.
"I was driving southbound and saw a lot of cars going the opposite way."
One of the protesters in the convoy has confirmed to DevonLive that the protest is to campaign for freedom and human rights.
Sahara Hawker, a member of UK Freedom Convoy, said: "I am in a van travelling with someone who has had all three vaccinations so it's not an anti-vax protest; it's about pro-choice and human rights.
"I nearly lost my job because I didn't want to have the vaccine but I can keep working after the government has done a U-turn.

Banks in Canada started freezing accounts of those who allegedly were supporting the Trucker Freedom Convoy protests yesterday. As news of bank accounts being frozen spread, several major Canadian banks went offline in what appeared to be a bank run. Trudeau faced his critics in Ottawa earlier today at the House of Commons, and reportedly stated: "We understand that Canadians are frustrated with [COVID-19]. Some protesters came to Ottawa to express their frustrations and fatigue with public health measures. That's their right. It's a right that we'll defend in this free and democratic country. But the illegal blockades and occupations are not peaceful protests. They have to stop." According to Trudeau's Justice Minister, apparently those "illegal blockades and occupations" include being a Trump supporter, which can result in your bank account being frozen. Protesters apparently are not backing down, and Dr. Byram Bridle reportedly called on all Canadians to now head to Ottawa to join the protests.
Canada’s parliament on Monday backed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decision to invoke rarely-used emergency powers to end pandemic-related protests that have blocked streets in the capital Ottawa for more than three weeks.
The Emergencies Act was approved in parliament by 185 to 151, with the minority Liberal government getting support from left-leaning New Democrats.
The special measures, announced by Trudeau a week ago, have been deemed unnecessary and an abuse of power by some opposition politicians.
Over the weekend, Canadian police restored normalcy in Ottawa. The protesters initially wanted an end to cross-border COVID-19 vaccine mandates for truck drivers, but the occupation turned into a broader demonstration against Trudeau and his government. Protestors blocked the busiest land crossing between Canada and the United States for six days, snarling trade.
Earlier on Monday, Trudeau told reporters his government still needed temporary emergency powers citing “real concerns” about threats in the days ahead. “This state of emergency is not over. There continue to be real concerns about the coming days,” Trudeau said.
The act grants authorities broader powers.
Police spent two days clearing protesters from the downtown Ottawa, making 191 arrests and towing 79 vehicles by the time the operation ended on Sunday.
Trudeau also called for people to work together, saying “we don’t know when this pandemic is going to end, but that doesn’t mean we cannot start healing as a nation”.
Some members of the official opposition Conservative Party accuse Trudeau of abusing his powers. Legislator Dean Allison decried what he called “authoritarian military style measures” against the protesters.
Green Party member Mike Morrice, who voted against the motion, said invoking the act was an “inappropriate” response to a failure in policing.
“As many other Parliamentarians have shared, the use of the Emergencies Act sets a worrying precedent for future protests,” he said.
America has only 25 days of diesel supply thanks to Joe Biden’s economic crippling policies. A diesel fuel crisis will cripple the US.
PJ Media shared the news over the weekend. The fuel that is used to transport US goods across the country is in a crisis situation:
Oil prices and President Joe Biden’s continued draining of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) have dominated the headlines over the past few weeks, but analysts say a more impactful and serious crisis on the energy front looms: a diesel fuel shortage.
Diesel doesn’t get as much of the limelight as oil and gas, but it should because diesel fuel is the industrial lifeblood of the United States, and the price of diesel alone probably has a more significant impact on inflation and the prices you’re paying at the grocery store over any other factor. Without ample amounts of diesel, semi-trucks don’t move, farms are shut down, and critical manufacturing sectors are crippled.
As Bloomberg noted this week, “The US has just 25 days of diesel supply, the lowest since 2008, according to the Energy Information Administration. At the same time, the four-week rolling average of distillates supplied, a proxy for demand, rose to its highest seasonal level since 2007.”
The Biden administration has remained strangely silent, probably hoping that the dismal news doesn’t hit the mainstream because it’s a total political timebomb waiting to go off, especially as the midterm elections are so close.
Bloomberg noted:
The diesel crunch comes just weeks ahead of the midterm elections and has the potential to drive up prices for consumers who already view inflation and the economy as a top voting issue. Retail prices have been steadily climbing for more than two weeks. At $5.324 a gallon, they’re 50% higher than this time last year, according to AAA data.
Notably, National Economic Council Director Brian Deese recently commented on the emerging crisis. Deese said diesel inventories are “unacceptably low” and added that “all options are on the table,” whatever that means.
The American trucking industry is very important to this country and truckers rely on diesel to run their trucks.

The American trucking industry is very important to this country and truckers rely on diesel to run their trucks.
According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), diesel fuel is used to transport goods and run military vehicles and tractors of farms:
Most of the products we use are transported by trucks and trains with diesel engines, and most construction, farming, and military vehicles and equipment also have diesel engines. As a transportation fuel, diesel fuel offers a wide range of performance, efficiency, and safety features. Diesel fuel also has a greater energy density than other liquid fuels, so it provides more useful energy per unit of volume.
Diesel engines in trucks, trains, boats, and barges help transport nearly all products people consume. Diesel fuel is commonly used in public buses and school buses.
Diesel fuel powers most of the farm and construction equipment in the United States. The construction industry also depends on the power diesel fuel provides. Diesel engines can do demanding construction work, such as lifting steel beams, digging foundations and trenches, drilling wells, paving roads, and moving soil safely and efficiently.
The U.S. military uses diesel fuel in tanks and trucks because diesel fuel is less flammable and less explosive than other fuels. Diesel engines are also less likely to stall than gasoline-fueled engines.
Diesel fuel is also used in diesel engine generators to generate electricity. Many industrial facilities, large buildings, institutional facilities, hospitals, and electric utilities have diesel generators for backup and emergency power supply. Most remote villages in Alaska use diesel generators as the primary source of electricity.
The Biden regime, with its holdovers from the Clinton and Obama regimes, has put the American economy in a dangerous position. The anti-energy policies they push, that help regimes in the Middle East, Russia and Venezuela, are killing the US.
President Trump had America energy independent in less than four years. Biden is now begging for oil from these America-hating radical regimes.
