Wikipedia Overview
The A12 blockade is a string of protests by Extinction Rebellion (XR) on the Utrechtsebaan in The Hague, irregularly since 6 July 2022 and there were daily blockades from 9 September 2023 until 5 October 2023. The blockades were paused after a motion in the Tweede Kamer passed that called on the government to make a plan to phase out fossil subsidies but taken up again from February 2024. The activists demand that the government end fossil fuel subsidies, which are estimated at between €39.7 and €46.4 billion a year. Thousands of activists have been arrested. Political and social reactions to the blockades have been mixed.
