The real problem is that people with mortgages are usually married and working. They don't have time to protest. The Water Charges protestors are made up of a core of unemployed people and the rest just piggy backed on to it.
I think you have a point but I also am wondering if there's a relatively large portion of the 300k svr holders see public protest as below them. This could be due to some of the tactics the water campaign used which I don't condone but i cant help thinking that there are wuite a few snobs among our number.Other than that it's a case of life doesn't give people time or they just can't be bothered or they don't realise how much they're being screwed for which shouldn't be a factor with the publicity the campaign was getting.Probably not the most politically correct post thats ever been submitted, but one i agree with 100 per cent
