When requested in regards to the methodology of protest, she added: "Rubbish. Painful. The people that they're affecting is us. The people they think they're doing all this for, they're not helping us in any shape or form. They're disrupting our life in every way imaginable. You can't even have some enjoyment now, can you? They think they're speaking on behalf of other people but I'd prefer if they just minded their own business."
