A plan by drivers angry at the rising cost of petrol and diesel to blockade the M4 and M48 Severn Bridges has met a mixed reaction among Bristol Live readers.
The protest is one of several planned across the country as fuel approaches - and has passed in some places - £2 a litre on the forecourts. Drivers on a Facebook group with tens of thousands of members have organised a protest on July 4 which would see both the M48 Severn Bridge and the M4 Prince of Wales Bridge blockaded by angry motorists, bringing the main connection between Bristol and South Wales to a standstill.
Organiser Ashley Fowler told Wales Online: “We’re all car enthusiasts and we have all been worried about fuel prices and when I saw the post about blocking the bridges we began talking about it. Then people started asking me to make an event so we could update each other.
