I don’t want to start a whole race thing but these people have mostly been white British people of all age groups, protesting in their own land in a time when most of us can only snap at the knife that butchers us should be commended. As I have said all along, if they don’t matter then we don’t matter either….that’s how it works. I have met a few, and chatted to them, they were middle class home counties posh as f**k upper middle class uni student drop-out, they are as similar to me as kalahari bushmen.

(Guess who’s picking up the bill ?…..yeah, the council tax payers !) Have charged them to park outside their own house ! Have turned their area into a crime ridden shithole that is a haven for county lines drugs gangs Have given them massive anti social behaviour, stabbings, robbery Have reduced services year on year Have built all over their green belt Have demolished their train station (in a commuter town !) 5 years ago and still not built another ! Have destroyed their high streets Sold off their parking I could go on and on……but no, these thick c**ts want to go and shoot fireworks at a couple of British people standing up for themselves ! Amazing huh ! That’s the f***ing mentality ! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are totally alien to me, in no way similar whatsoever, in fact I would have more in common to the kalahari bushmen mentioned earlier barring birth place, I would find them far more interesting.

Interesting or not mate, at this moment in our history and given our situation we should (imho) be supporting British people protesting in their own land…..we help the wolves bury them at our peril !

chartpolski 27,901 Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 I'd have some respect for them if they spent some of their money and went out to Sharm El Sheik and protested the COP 27 ! But then again, the Egyptian police wouldn't be offering them cups of tea and asking if they were comfortable......... Cheers. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When the new crime bill gos through (massively helped by the government aided rhetoric against protestors like these people which everyone seems to support) then you won’t even be at a protest to stop the boats because they won’t allow you to have one ! Nobody will give a shit what you (or I) think because they will just lock you up ! As I said, when they don’t matter then neither do we ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As above, when the new crime bill gets passed helped by all this small minded (imho) public opinion they will be doing the same in Britain !

Well, you won’t have long to wait mate before you won’t be chatting with any of them because you won’t be at a protest because their won’t be one….unless it’s one our governments masters allow them to have. Im guessing that won’t include much you or me would ever want to support or protest about. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 27,901 Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 Wilf, lets park to one side wether we think their cause is justified or not. A lot of people think it is, but the way they are going about their protests is alienating the vast majority of people. I saw that imbecile woman who poured shit over Sir Toms monument and she simply couldn't give a coherent answer as to why she chose that target. If she'd of poured it over an MP's door or car she would have done her cause far more good. Yes, they are getting noticed, as they want, but they would get far more prominence if they targeted the people who could make a difference, instead of people simply going about their lawful business. I, personally, think they are impressionable people being manipulated by by the crazies on the far left and various anarchist groups. I agree entirely with your position on the right to protest, but you don't seem to realise these people are protesting the wrong targets, and it's eroding any sympathy people may have had for their cause. Cheers. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
