    Only they are not full anymore!

      In this instance the rumour was either not taken seriously or perhaps just not spread widely enough.
      I think the real reasons are that :

      1) Protesting is pointless and a waste of time. You secure a 2 pence freeze for 3 months. Then it goes up by 5 pence anyway sometime later.

      2) Protesting will get you "noticed" by the authorities and even if you don't get charged, you will be "on the record" for ever after. Better to keep your head down or just leave the country.
      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

            There's too much chance of body parts falling off from frostbite
            I think the body parts will fall off more likely after you have been covertly videoed, the registration of your vehicle taken, various databases updated, and a knock on the door at 3am a few weeks later.
