Clifton has always had a reputation for being Bristol's 4x4 country, indeed, one of our first ever photograph was someone being forced to park their 4x4 outside a fee paying ecole.
Well, the "clifton or death" campaigners, who are campaigning for "right to commute by car" have escalated beyond the mock tanks to the real thing,
If you look at the footage, they are saying "loss of parking will destroy clifton" -yet as you note in the video: there are are no free spaces. Which means that the combination of residents and staff parking has destroyed the parking opportunities for any paying shop customers. Which means that the number of customers that can drive to their shops is reduced.
More formally: if the number of free spaces is zero, the the number of hours of free parking you get is also zero.
You can see this at 1:10 where the tank is forced to park on Clifton Downs, just behind the "No Cycling sign".
Which is where the whole "RPZ kills the village" story falls apart. As it appears to be granting free parking where none exists today.
Ignoring the fact that they are really fighting for the right to drive to work, they threaten to take their battle all the way to David Cameron if they don't get their way.
Here then is the second video of their war against the RPZ, taking the battle to westminster itself!
Support the Clifton Popular Front in their campaign! Rise up and overthrow the oppressors that is Bristol Parking Services!
