For thinking that the migrant protests ...

[Ihateboris]

Should be held at the council offices, Government departments, rather than the migrant hotels? After all, it's due to the government's lack of processing that the migrants are there?

Yes, it is.

I suspect you and I live in the same town! Ignore my username it's not relevant here

‘our local sunburnt bald headed beer bellied ones’

Wow. Such bigotry in one so.. so.. uhm.. kind

Can you explain why the 'counter protestors' feel the need to fly the Palestinian flag? Have they weaponised it?

Starmer really needs to get a grip on this. He’s handling the whole immigration situation very badly. Immigration is amongst the top three concerns of the average voter. I agree that protests should be outside government offices rather than hotels, and if he doesn’t start to listen to the voters, he will be thrown out at the next election, and Reform will be given a huge boost. People complain about that possibility, but if it happens it’s totally on the Labour government I’m afraid.

not missing the point, just pointing out the hypocrisy. It doesn't mean I don't see their point, just can't see how tying up local police keeping flag wavers at bay is helping 'protect' local women and girls, whilst sat in vans and its still not safe for 'Sophie' to walk down the road at 2am a mile away. If not in these hotels they will simply be moved elsewhere. They are here, they aren't going to be thrown out without being 'processed'.
It requires a bit more work than chanting outside hotels, using votes wisely, lobbying MPs, campaigning for getting laws changed, and importantly calling out other/ our men as well as incomers on their behaviour towards women.
I totally agree the government are floundering over the issue but Rob and Sue outside Seaside Hotel arent going to change that by flag waving.

No problem being racist then when it suits you, apparently.

I thought the same. What’s the reason behind it? Fgs, they pop up everywhere and anywhere….

Dead cat incoming.

Won't someone please think of the white bald ones ! They deserve kindness and empathy, unlike the people they are trying to intimidate with their placards and flags.

Ok. Do you understand why the people in Epping were upset about the migrants who were housed in their community? Do you know what happened there and why the locals might want those men removing from their community?

Racist, how?

It’s just left wing ‘thinking’, I doubt they even know what they’re protesting/counter protesting from one day to the next.

Why is the anti racist guy in the picture wearing a full disguise?

Why should people be kind to racists?

Posting a video from today, Stand Up To Racism said: "Over 500 anti-fascists in Bristol with @ BristolSUTR have humiliated a rump of 35 far right thugs #standuptoracism."

I think it’s because you’re using someone’s skin colour in a derogatory way. No one really cares, but you know you’d report someone’s post for even mentioning your skin colour.

It’s the protestors and their omnicause. ‘The Omnicause is, simply, every cause you must care about if you’re A Good Progressive rolled into one, because everything in the world is connected.’ Let’s add immigration protestors counter protestors to the list.

So trans rights are connected to Palestinian rights are connected to environmental concerns, and any self-respecting progressive who cares about one has to care about the other two.

Queers for Palestine; headlines in the Guardian such as “Emissions from Israel’s war in Gaza have immense effect on climate catastrophe”; standfirsts in the New York Times such as “In many students’ eyes, the war in Gaza is linked to other issues, such as policing, mistreatment of Indigenous people, racism and the impact of climate change.”

Too long, didn’t read? “Everything that I don’t like is fascism.” I’ve lost count now of the number of Democrat senators whose social media biographers finish with “she/her. Palestine.”

Really? I remember a massive vigil/ protest and arrests. It was widely reported.

Where on earth have I mentioned someone’s skin colour?

She means counter protestors in balaclavas I think.

So it’s okay to mock a person of colour and their physical appearance if their political beliefs differ from your own? And make disparaging comments about their bodies - that's not racism?

Interesting!

Sky quoted his approval rating as -41, as bad as Blair’s after the invasion of Iraq. 43% want Rachel Reeves removed before the budget. Pretty stunning figures.
