Gas prices – refusal to pay ?

1. All you’re doing is screwing yourself over when this goes to collections. You’ll have to appear in front of the Court of the Peace, who will find you should pay, along with court costs and possibly interests.

2. First of all one must understand the crucial difference here. The tories since david cameron have totally screwed the society over and now that johnson’s successors are no better, people threaten to not comply.

   So such civil disobedience would be warranted in belgium left the eu based on russian propaganda and racism and in the subsequent years the federal government would claim that provincial governments have no say in any matter. Oh and cherry on top the vennbahn region would erupt in a secession movement wanting to rejoin germany but de croo would say that the erection of a customs border in eupen hurts the french soraking residents in mslmedy.

   Then and only then could you compare.

3. Civil disobedience only works if there’s no foolproof way to enforce the law. Like breaking alcohol prohibition laws by making your own alcohol at home.

   Law enforcement exactly knows how much you own energy companies and there are laws to enforce payment. The government can just drag you to court and the decision is easy. The EsTaBlIsHmEnT is AAAFRAAID rhetoric will not stick in court.

   >UK medias warning people means establishment has fear for these kind of initiatives.

   No it literally does mean not that. ThE EsTaBlIsHmEnT doesn’t fear anything. Do you think government officials give a fuck about a few thousand people shooting themselves in the foot?

   Anyway gas companies can also just terminate your contract based on non-compliance and shut down your pipeline.

   This is so idiotic.
