Neighbour has put up huge Unite the Kingdom flag

[UrticaDioca]

I am gutted. I haven't seen a single flag in my town, and suddenly this union jack goes up two doors over with the words 'Unite the Kingdom' printed on it in capital letters. The flag is huge and flying from a pole on top of their shed, but it's in their own garden so nothing can be done.

I am the daughter of an immigrant mother and therefore mixed race. Now I have to see this fucking flag waving at me every time I look out of my kitchen or living room windows.

Yeah NO. It means understanding that our colonial past has consequences. That persecuted people have the right to claim asylum. And that if you were in a country destroyed by war or famine you'd try to get to somewhere safe too.

It also means understanding that this bullshit is neo-fascism which benefits none of us. And that it makes British people of colour unsafe on our streets.

So fuck off with your ignorance.

Either everyone has a right to protest or no one does.

Given that one of the co-founders of the raise the colours had been arrested for racially aggravated assault, another has been charge with murder AND 21% of 949 people arrested for taking part in the Stockport "protests" have been since reported for crimes associated with domestic violence, what exactly are British culture and values you think your side are championing?

I don't have a 'side'. Violent men unfortunately come in all shades of political opinion.

I'm just pissed off at people with concerns at the recent massive and unprecedented levels of immigration being dismissed as 'racist'. I now think anybody not 'racist' cares as little about the concerns of ordinary people in this country as anybody who's not 'transphobic' cares about ordinary women.
