    The bbc are now looking stupid for trying to ignor the yellow vest freedom fighters movement.

    They hoped it would die down instead it is picking up speed.

    This is so close to the u and the bbc try to not report it

    Every now and then they mentioned it a little just because it’s so hard to ignor.

    This is going to be massive, the freedom fighters will continue the yellow vest movement until macron steps down and the Bankers are forced to stop the criminal activity and manipulations.

    Or it could be that the BBC is primarily a British organisation and most Brits don't care that much about protests in France or any other country for that matter?

    Anecdotal but the protests were a talking point in our local pub before Christmas but I can't say I've heard anyone mention Yellow Vests other than in passing in the last few months... not surprisingly it seems to be mainly end of the world conspiracy theorists like you who are most concerned.

    Or it could be that the media wants to control what info we think about and they are trying to dampen down the increasingly stronger impact of the yellow vest freedom fighters movement spreading around the world.

    All they can do is hope that 2011 Brest doesn’t repeat when the yellow vest move takes hold in the uk as it as spread to so many other continents

    The UK yellow vest campaign reminds me of the damp squib that is the Leave means Leave march.

    OK, so how is this "increasingly stronger impact" manifesting itself in the UK?

    Which Bankers? What exactly is going to happen to the Bankers as a direct result of the yellow vest movement?

    When people lose everything they lose it.

    Look at the 2011 riots and you get an idea of the scale of the next yellow vest freedom fighters movement coming to the uk

    2011 riots were nothing to do with bankers and mostly opportunistic kids wanting a free pair of trainers by looting the nearest JD sports

    You haven't answered how the yellow vest movement is impacting the UK? Probably because, of course, it simply isn't.

    The 2011 protests were as a result of the police shooting a criminal who tried to run away from them, nothing to do with bankers.

    You were claiming the yellow vests were coming to the UK almost four months ago... they seem to be running a bit late. :rotfl:

    The fallout from brexit debacle will take years to finally hit bottom.

    We are still very early days.
