Yes, but not for a long time

Poll tax
Miners strike
Nuclear disarmament
Anti-apartheid

How did those go?

And have any of those protests were successful in reaching their end goals?

@Onecharmingman - Rather than pay for a state funeral for Margaret Thatcher, they could have just given everyone in Scotland a shovel so they could dig a hole deep enough to hand her to Satan personally.

@MartinTheFirst: poll tax was replaced with something slightly fairer
Miners strike failed miserably
Apartheid ended
CND sort of faded away but we still have nuclear proliferation.
I'm not under any illusions that any of these protests had any effect

@hiddenkitty: not sure, but it's better than doing nothing
