Tolerant and measured, I would expect nothing less. Its good in advance to know that if any trouble occurs in London it's already being put out that it will be the fault of the right wing. Got to have a scapegoat ready. 👍 Edited November 10 by Al Bundy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

RJRB #2727 Posted November 10 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/british-legion-palestine-protest-row-b2445116.html Tommy Robinson and crew to “defend “The Cenotaph. The number of Peace Marchers will vastly outnumber the lunatic fringe on both ends of the spectrum. A Peace March seems perfectly suited on a weekend that for me honours those that died as a result of political and diplomatic failures. Some were undoubtedly heroes in the situations that they found themselves in but most were just young men and women caught up in madness.

Unfortunately, our political and diplomatic failures are still multiplying and still trying to address the consequences of the mistakes, instead of looking for the path to true peace.

Al Bundy #2729 Posted November 10 (edited) So the home secretary is getting blasted for her words regarding the protest yet the very same people are using the same vocabulary towards those who are going down to protect the cenotaph. 🤪 What's it to be as the hypocrisy, once again is all over the place?

Findlay #2730 Posted November 10 (edited) All seems nice as pie, those remembering the fallen, the injured and those serving and those wanting a peaceful march for palestine. A few pieces of recent history 1. Like the Yom Kippur itself, a supposed Egyptian military exercise turning into an actual invasion. 2. The military exercise along the Ukranian borders that turned into an invasion 3. The intelligence blackout of Israels national holiday on October 7th that turned into a massacre Some people are reacting because they think we are going into this weekend with our trousers down and confidence needs to be restored.

The police are protecting the cenotaph. The march is going nowhere near anyway. There’s no need for Tommy TwoPercent and his private army. If Braverman hadn’t been so busy campaigning to become Leader of the Opposition, I very much doubt that Robinson would have become involved . She’s inflamed the situation and deserves all the criticism that she’s getting. Edited November 10 by Prettytom 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

There is no doubt Braverman has used language that is too shall we say "over the top" but in my opinion she is on the right track. I would suggest at least 50% protesting this weekend are just there to protest against capitalism, anti government and so forth, I doubt most wouldn't even know where Palestine is on a map and have absolutely no idea what's going on as proved by my earlier link. My point still stands though, the same folk berating Tommy as his pals will be berating Braverman for using the same sort of language, it's hypocrisy. You off to Hillsborough tomorrow? Be a frustrating draw I reckon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

To a (wo)man, my lefty friends all agreed that it would be better if the march didn’t take place. The rabid righty disagreed, and considered it the price of freedom. Confusing, I think. I can’t agree that Braverman is on the right lines. She’s home sec. With the big salary, big car and fawning minions, she also has responsibilities. She’s seriously undermined the police and possibly precipitated a very dangerous situation. For that reason, she needs to go. As for your allegations about the motives of the marchers, my eldest will be there. You probably wouldn’t want to debate geopolitical affairs with her😁 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
