Look North has managed a report on this today without using the word “blockade”. Apparently it’s going to be a “slow drive”.

Taxi drivers to take strike action in Rotherham tomorrow – with ‘blockades’ threatened
Rotherham taxi drivers are set to go on strike from tomorrow in protest at controversial new licensing laws being introduced in the wake of the child sexual exploitation scandal.
The Rotherham Hackney Carriage Association has told BBC Radio Sheffield its members will not be accepting jobs tomorrow.
Strike action is due to start from 6am tomorrow and one private hire driver told the BBC cabbies are considering ‘blockades of the town’ as part of their protest.
