The book delves into three decades of transport-related protests in the UK, beginning with the extensive road-building initiatives of the late 1980s. Through over 50 interviews with key figures, including government officials and activists, it reveals the complex dynamics between protest movements and government actions. Highlighting significant events, such as the HS2 debates and Extinction Rebellion, it questions the effectiveness of past protests and explores the potential influence of current movements on future transport policies amidst climate concerns.
