Masked men at Dover - KKK vibes

They are utter cowards and hypocritical. The same ilk will state they're against the burkha and protests by environmental groups etc. but are happy to mask their faces in 'protest' the reality is they're just nasty specimens of humanity, full of people with self righteous white supremacy tendencies. AIBU.

Right wing thugs are given free reign in this country. Most of them are just itching to slap a woman around as well. Just watch the video of that man at the Reform conference

The evidence is out there if youd care to open your eyes
Its a well known fact, these men mainly target white women and children.
Stop being defensive not to mention ignorant

It’s not out there, and if you’re unable to share it I assume you’re more interested in shit stirring than actually protecting women and girls.

I’ve nothing to be defensive of, I work with women every day who are affected by men of all religions and ethnicities, I support them reporting to police and attending court if needed. If I only saw white women and girls I’d tell you, but I don’t. So there’s my evidence, where’s yours?

Ok well you’ll get people arriving at the coast still.

I refer you back to what I already said.

‘Yes, but would massively reduce arrivals and therefore speed up decision making. Likelihood is that irregular arrivals would not be accepted and therefore could be removed.’

Matey you can say black is white but it doesn’t make it true. ‘Antifa’ is quite literally, anti fascist.

I can't believe that that required explanation. I first heard the term in the late 70s, when I was "rocking against racism".

More like "rocking chair against racism" these days...

German far-right set for big win in eastern state - projections

BBC headline tonight - it’s likely to come here if nothing is done

Isn’t it funny that people are voting for a party whose leader doesn’t even live the values she promotes?

Because it is white women and children that are predominantly being attacked, do you you not watch the news?
As a woman I dont want ANY woman or child to suffer at the hands of ANY man, be they white, black purple or green.
I will reiterate once again that I have concerns about men, of any race entering the country illegally.
Iwill not be called a white supremacist for that.

How do you know the ethnicity of women and girls who are being attacked? And if you have that data, please share it so we can all be educated.

I world in the VAWG sector and it’s not my experience at all, so if you have information it would be appreciated.

You’d still have the refugee convention which means you can arrive in any way to apply.

So you’d need to end that.

Did I dream there was some sort of European vote where loads of countries were shouting about ending the flow of migration and other country representatives were shouting back? I swear it happened and if it did what were they voting on?

Dersie · Yesterday 19:13

Switchnow · Yesterday 18:48

No, I said ‘if you believe X, then I would consider you a white supremacist’.

The men you believe you have so much in common with have highly probably been violent to white women.

You say it’s not about race for you and yet you only mention being worried about harm to white women and children.

Again, tell me how any of that makes me ‘extremely racist’?

Well, no, you could adopt the exact same system as applied in Ukraine and was entirely legal and the same across Europe.

Because you’d have to opt out of international laws which is a sticking point with all this.

Oh right, is that what she meant?

I don’t know why more people aren’t in favour of the same system in other countries. Make the decision at an earlier point and then you can legitimately detain and deport undocumented arrivals.

Immigrant men have an offending rate similar to British men - in fact somewhat lower.
We would not be supporting them for years if we changed the rules so that they could work as in many other countries. It makes no sense to prevent them working when we have jobs which can't be filled. ( See the Government list of jobs that need filling.)
With the crisis situation we face with a birth rate of 1.39 children per woman, when we need 2.1 children per woman if we are not to have a crisis of underpopulation.
We desperately need people to come here to work so that our elderly can retire at a reasonable age. We can't keep raising the retirement age so that the poorest and those who have been working in unskilled manual labour jobs eg have fewer and fewer years of retirement. Unskilled male life expectancy 71-73, professionals 79-80. How is that right?
( NB Some countries eg China eg allow most women to retire at 55. only the managers retire at 60. Still much younger than we retire!)

Immigrant men meaning work visas too?

Switchnow · Yesterday 19:08

On this Ukrainians are on humanitarian visas here, and were vetted.

They are brownshirts from 1930s Germany. A page from history which taught us that you must stand up to cowardly thugs like this.

NeedAnyHelpWithThatPaperBag · Yesterday 19:07

I hate to say it, but maybe the police in general are going to have to go back to being a force rather than a service again, as the days of softly softly working look like they're being severely tested...

No your England is groups of young men coming on small boats to harass young girls. Who believe that the streets are paved with gold. It's women being made into second class citizens. It's the archbishop of Canterbury saying there should be Sharia law in parts of the UK. It's white college students being stabbed, then arrested because they were called racist. It's British soldiers being hacked to death on the streets.

It's children attending a pop concert in Manchester being blown up.

That's your perfect England. It's not mine.

It’s the numbers coming here that feed racism - anyone who thinks increasing the population by millions when the country is financially crippled , especially of different culture to the majority white and mainly men is a good thing is not being honest

Ukrainians do not have a history nor do they feel its acceptable to rape or attack uk women and children upon their arrival

Oh please that’s just sheer racism
