Highways England in sneaky message?

Not exactly dangerous revolutionaries, are they?

Yet Highways England took it upon themselves to send this pally message to a local pro-scheme group…

Subject: Extinction Rebellion Protest tomorrow 28 August 2020

Hi Janice,

Just to let you know we’ve been informed of an Extinction Rebellion Protest tomorrow on the A303 at Stonehenge road junction. It starts at 9:30am and could be disruptive to drivers.

Why did they send that “warning” to their local allies? To create resentment? To prompt a counter-demonstration? Who knows? Anyway, the climate campaigners seem to have conducted themselves properly, rendering this comment from the pro-scheme lobby rather ironic: “Always knew this was going to get dirty!“

.

Actually, it is Highways England that is famous for Stonehenge-related dirty tricks. See here.
