The Belgian authorities have decided to ban the "freedom convoy" which was to connect Paris to Brussels to protest against health restrictions.
The Belgian authorities decided Thursdsy to prohibit access to Brussels of the "Convoy of Freedom", a demonstration for which no authorization was requested, announced the burgomaster (mayor) of the Belgian capital, Philippe Close...
Convoys also prohibited in Paris
Thousands of motorists took to the road in Wednesday from Paris, Nice, Bayonne and even Perpignan to demonstrate peacefully against government policy and in particular the vaccination pass. In the same way, the prefect of Paris announced to prohibit in Paris the 'convoys of freedom'...

I recommend that the people ban the ban.
Yeah, banning an act of civil disobedience. That always works.
Tell the authorities they’re transporting minority migrants and they’ll be left alone.
Demonstrating what totalitarianism looks like.
When the Chinese people had their own protest movement the authorities had a simple solution: kill them all. Brutal but it seems to have worked for them. Not so much for the rest of the World.
Only state sponsored protests allowed.
Mandate and Ban. It doesn’t matter if the people have reached their limit. If you haven’t scared them with Jab Passports and Restrictive Breathing Apparatus, you will not scare them with Bans. In a classic example of not thinking ahead, the threat is to ban truckers’ licenses for three years. So then, who is going to deliver your goods to market?
Simple response.
Don’t deliver to either of the cities
Just “can’t” have any of that “Freedom” Goin On!
We’ll see how long it stands.
I had dinner in a bistro near Porte Maillot when the taxi drivers union staged a protest against Uber. The Parisian Gendarmes were there but let them block traffic for hours.
The truckers joined in, blocking exit ramps from the Peripherique.
In France the Unions rule. If their people are pissed off about the vax mandates, they will do what they want...the police unions will simply go easy.
Miserable, Fat Belgian Bastards!
Great beer, though.
The fascist are banning freedom. Where have we seen this before?
Hopefully there is effective at stopping this as they were stopping the Germans in 1940.
The latest meme I’ve heard is that people that are crying for personal freedom are just being selfish. I kid you not. I guess the pursuit of slavery is a higher goal to these people.
Dictatorships can’t tolerate dissent.
Have they begun calling the protestors “white supremacist nazi confederate right wingers” yet?
Has anyone else notice how quickly “the woke” begin name calling anyone that does not agree with them? It is as if they have no real argument for why they do what they are doing (other then because they can).
Just call it a BLM rally and they’ll be authorized immediately.
Can these city governments actually stop this from happening? Seems like a silly gesture to me.
