It's a protest by proxy. So a lie. The only people affected by the 'protest' are the general public - the people who have the power to do something about it are protected from the civil disturbance.

It's about time a protest that causes mass potentially violent disruption and cancelled public transport is considered just as much a hate crime as, say, one baker politely declining to bake one cake with a slogan on it. Tolerance is one thing but we have become a laughing stock because of a miniscule tiny minority.
