I know. I really do despair. 😢

Yusuf seems to be inciting (or at least predicting) violence against members of the government here. Is that allowed now? They seem allowed to do anything they want.

God, that’s really sinister. Another one whose (Sri Lankan) parents must be proud of him.

Of course it's a safeguarding issue first and foremost. Secondly it's absolutely appalling. What parent behaves like that?

There were children present on previous riots as well

If this was in Northern Ireland, it would be national and international headline news.

I hate it too. It repulses me.

That is really bad.

Social services will be busy.

That is rather loaded language.

This was shared on the Trump thread, a body language expert on the Burnham-Trump meeting.

Burnham did well.

Just watched that - interesting analysis.
Basically Burnham didn't get it wrong.
I think that's about as well as any nation's leader can do dealing with an entirely unpredictable Trump.

Hats off to him, he did better than I expected.

I heard a bit of Burnham's speech on the AI and Russia on the radio and thought how lovely it was to hear a bit of Scouse rather than RP

I thought he did very well too.

Like a shit messiah

Is that a messiah that dwells on bodily functions or a messiah that's hopeless?

Thanks for the video Duncin.

Burnham did indeed do well.

The answer to this question may simply be 'yes'.

Meant to add or both, but couldn't edit. He's found his USP at last!

Going back to boat smashing - Tommo has always been oddly desperate to do this - well many are - it was attempted in France by some and they got kicked out of the country.
Re the kids - abhorrent- but no surprise as I’ve seen them at hotel protests shouting absolutely obscene as well as bike stuff with their loving parents. Heard 2 teachers muttering about Monday safeguarding referrals one time - I do wonder what Monday share what we did at weekend sounds like - yes some of these kids were young enough for this and even too young!

6 arrests made and an investigation into 'tommo'

Glad to see that Daniel 'privately educated' Thomas is being investigated.
I don't understand how these ex public school boys hold such an attraction for working class men?

Thomas, Farage, Lowe...

One thing John Cleese is 100% right about is the prism of class in Britain. b

Not just that, his fans contribute to his go fund me's en masse
