Leeds divided over 'waste of time' M62 petrol protests while others approve

People in Leeds have reacted to the news that there is to be a "go flow" fuel protest, along the M62 tomorrow. The protest is planned to take place near Ferrybridge Services at Pontefract.

Drivers could take to stretches of the M62 from 6am tomorrow (Monday, July 4) and will be blocking the motorway, in a "peaceful protest" against rising fuel costs. West Yorkshire Police have said that they are aware of plans for a protest on the M62 tomorrow and have said that they are 'working with partner agencies'.

Writing on a Facebook Page dedicated to the protest, a campaigner said: "We will be meeting at Ferrybridge services (J33, WF11-0AF) at 6am then we will set off and block the motorway in a peaceful protest. All information will be given out on the day."
