[Politics] Protests/rioting in lots of places

[Bakero]

Something similar did the rounds years ago. Glad to see it's still in action

Shameful and criminal behaviour. Idiots for doing what they're doing and idiots when there are cameras everywhere.

This will pass because the overwhelming majority of us are reasonable people. Many, many immigrants put us to shame with their behaviour and work ethic but no country can keep absorbing illegal immigration.

I am a right of centre voter. I think we need a completely honest and open conversation about getting along and sharing common values and respect for the law of the land. Doesn't help if those on the right are dismissed as 'scum'

I respect all opinions and we need to work together and not be swayed by the actions of a minority.

Those rioting are scum
Absolutely

Labour got it a few years back when they used a silhouette for their Brighton conference logo

I am seeing horrible violence and disorder on the news … I am fairly liberal and support our freedom to protest but against this riot I would welcome any kind of control measures… water cannon, rubber bullets , you name it

Really? Has someone scratched a yacht?

Very much this……everyone is saying lock them up. Where exactly??

Put them in a Britannia Hotel for 24 months,

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Hopefully that is the case. And hopefully this remains a northern issue so the club don’t have any decisions to make.

Haven’t seen the clip but unless he’s on film committing a crime what exactly can the club do for him just being there?

I fail to see anything funny, maybe I am being whooshed?

It seems he isn’t an Albion fan, but if he was then the club is a private business so they can do what they like as long as there’s no laws broken. I wouldn’t have any issue with the club banning him for being a part of this even as a “spectator”

If there's room for them in prison - which there isn't.

Three to a cell and the meat in a spot roast in the showers. No problem

Have you been to Weymouth ?

Ithink its time to send those with Anglo-Saxon heritage back where they came from, same as those bloody Normans

Bloody Germans…they bombed our chip shops!

The worst of this is that the tweet was 100% serious and not ironic. Unbelievable but we probably shouldn't be surprised.

The same tweet owner was posting about the Southport pepertrator being an immigrant who arrived here last year, and called Ali-Al-Shakrati (sp), and has been tweeting about the ‘Muslim Defence League’ (non existent and a direct reference to English Defence League. It has 49,000 followers.
I have reported it to Twitter, but nothing has happened yet. All those lies ‘liked and shared’

Elon Musk buying Twitter has helped this. It used to be lightly moderated but at least it was moderated.

There would be if they released some of the JSO protestors. I feel a lot safer with that lot loose on the street than these thugs.

I suspect a £2.50-worth of improvements joke may be incoming

That’s me. 26% Germanic.

So can we call those trying to burn people to death far right rascists?
I'm thinking I can also call anyone not appalled by that a far right rascist but apparently I might be offending fine upstanding citizens with legitimate concerns about immigration who aren't at all racist honest.
