[Politics] Protests/rioting in lots of places

[Commander]

Will you be filming and wearing that hat?

I was hoping to but they are now shutting and boarding up the office so I will WFH. Hopefully they burn the place down and I can get us out of our insanely expensive lease.

The ‘something happening now’ bit was apparently bollocks.

Norwich on Saturday.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Typhoo put the T in BriTain, Tommy put the **** in sCUNThorpe

John Francombe used that many moons ago on The Morning Line.
The 'advert' teaser question was racecourses with parts of the body in (Chester etc) and after the break the mischievous Francombe proffered 'I didn't know there was a racecourse in Scunthorpe'.
Naughty boy on a Saturday am.

The official advice from police, issued to Brighton centre businesses is to be alert from 3pm onwards tomorrow but not to panic as they have plans in place and are ready to mobilise if required.

Seeing as this thread is all about shits, i guess this is the thread for this, I was just towards the end of an incredibly messy poo at home and my mobile rang with an important call i was waiting for, i finished up and legged it downstairs to answer, fast forward 3 hours and my wife has just got home and went upstairs, it was then my afternoon slumbering in my command chair was disturbed with a shriek followed by some choice language, i hadn’t flush my mess away She’s still going on about it it, it might be separate beds tonight

Meanwhile in other news i met Fabian’s GF this lunchtime

Been told to WFH tomorrow.

The definition of unrest includes disturbance, agitation and turmoil.
You’ve basically just contradicted yourself there,

Glad you noted that - I read it and thought "Am I being particularly dense today?"!

 

[Weststander]

Brighton …. it wouldn’t surprise me if nothing happens whatsoever. A very one sided crowd.

It’s being really talked up. As with BBC pre event hype for Brits in these Olympics, the bigger the hype, the lesser the event.

This is a very unique part of the UK … wealth, employment, things to do, inclusiveness, two huge uni’s, no history of Asian v White or similar aggro in districts.

 

[Peteinblack]

What’s the difference. Thuggery resulting in unrest.

Unrest resulting in thuggery, surely? Marches and protests which soon lead to violence and vandalism, fuelled by alcohol and toxic masculinity, I'd imagine.

 

[Peteinblack]

12% thinking the unrest is justified is disturbingly high. Mind you, YouGov methodology has always been suspect.

As 14% voted for Reform UK (sadly), I wonder if this explains the 'disturbingly high' number who believe that the unrest is justified.

I wonder how many of these people also think that the Just Stop Oil would-be protesters deserved to be banged-up for 5 years - presumably they think it is perfectly OK, even patriotic, to 'protest' against immigrants, but not against Climate Change?

 

[Peteinblack]

I think this will all fizzle out soon hopefully. Once the perps get caught and stiff sentences handed out, people will start thinking again as well as the main culprits already starting to be being taken off the streets.

And the footie starts again, and the weather turn cooler and wetter!

Eric Arthur Blair's 1984 is coming our way very soon.

Eric Arthur Blair's 1984 is coming our way very soon.

FFS. Fortunate that the police are already on this.

I was going to say we needed a pic but couldn’t risk the confusion

What X? Ive been on it for about 4 months, click on following and its fine but click on For You and its like a global Jurassic Park. Tik tok seems to be similar. Just use Facebook as a Diary now.

And then there is here lol.

And if you follow the 'right' accounts you can come on NSC telling everyone where the feral scum are planning the next riot

I hope you at least finished the paperwork before taking the call.
