Reviews
As a movement for social change it is important that we understand our own history. This is a compelling read.' - Gail Bradbrook Co-Founder of Extinction Rebellion, I couldn't put it down until I'd read it right to the end. And even then I wanted more. It's fascinating, important, and very well-informed' Professor Phil Goodwin, Emeritus Professor of Transport Policy at UCL

Synopsis
From the anti-roads protests of the 1990s to HS2 and Extinction Rebellion, conflict and protest have shaped the politics of transport. In 1989, Margaret Thatcher's government announced 'the biggest road-building programme since the Romans.' This is the inside story of the thirty tumultuous years that have followed. Roads, Runways and Resistance draws on over 50 interviews with government ministers, advisors and protestors - many of whom, including 'Swampy', speak here for the first time about the events they describe. It is a story of transport ministers undermined by their own Prime Ministers, protestors attacked or quietly supported by the police, and smartly-dressed protestors who found a way onto the roof of the Houses of Parliament. Today, as a new wave of road building and airport expansion threatens to bust Britain's carbon budgets, climate change protestors find themselves on a collision course with the government. Melia asks, what difference did the protests of the past make? And what impacts might today's protest movements have on the transport of the future?, Chronicling 30 years of public protest, government U-turns and environmental destruction, this is the story of Britain's transport policy

- u***u (733)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéCarefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.
- 9***n (325)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéExcellent experience with this eBay used book seller! The books arrived in perfect condition, as described, and their pristine condition exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the speed of shipping: the book arrived much earlier than expected. Furthermore, the packaging was careful and professional, ensuring the book arrived undamaged. Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
- c***i (102)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéBook was in very good condition as described in the listing. It looked almost new, in fact, but the pages did have some yellowing around the edges, a sign of its age. The seller did an excellent job of wrapping and packing the book for shipment, which I greatly appreciate! He has earned his 100% feedback rating, I'd say. I'm extremely pleased with the seller and this transaction. Thank you!And the Walls Came Tumbling Down: Greatest Closing Arguments Protecting Civil Li (#376028342866)
