Will you take a large share of the convicted rioters in return?

Or welcome more of those anti immigration marches in your neighbourhood?

Actually that is a fair point. We get the asylum seekers, the thugs and the flag shaggers get deported out of our areas. Would anyone on here give up their spare room to a poor, innocent homeless member of Raise the Colours? Maybe there should be a tick box option on voting slips. 🤔

No it’s not cheap, that’s what I’m saying. CW does accommodate even with the cost, so it’s not an excuse for Brighton.

And no I don’t think people in more run down areas should do it, it makes sense to use the social welcome from Brighton. There would also be no backlash when something happens. It’s a win all round.

Directly giving protestors what they wished for. What's not to like? I suppose the royal "here" in refugees are welcome can be taken literally. What a great start in leading by example.

I must say, the standard of ‘argument’ on the ‘pro unlimited immigration’ side is low even by their normal standards.

They’ve just resorted to name calling - fascist, knuckle draggers, bigots etc - the only popular one missing is ‘flag shaggers’

I guess is an acknowledgment they have no arguments.

Have you seen the names the anti-immigration lot have called us on here? One said we are all disgusting, have blood on our hands, have ruined lives and are worse than rapists.

Sounds great. Would look forward to you embracing the overwhelming results of patriots being welcomed by fellow patriots into their homes. I couldn't see you having a problem with that one iota.

There is the founder guy who faces murder charges who might need some extra money support

I can't remember seeing any protests in his home town

I don’t think anyone has posted a downside yet for Brighton taking more people.

Great! So it is all sorted. Next time we have a GE there can be two options on the ballot paper:

Would you prefer

A. To have asylum seekers housed in your area?
OR
B. To have members of Raise the Colours, Britain First, the Homeland Party, Tommy Robinson supporters etc. housed in your area?

More racist protests? Visits from Tommy Robinson? Huge security bill funded by tax payers?

Maybe you see them as a positive though

Agree but you don't need to add TR. Make it a fair contest and allow each side to fight their own battle.

Well done Brighton 👏

It’s quite heartening to see this. As the anti-migrant / anti-ethnic minority vitriol becomes more mainstream - it’s nice to see it’s not universal. (Especially after the recent race based pogroms in Belfast (and to a lesser extent Glasgow)).

Nope. Robinson supporters are non-negotiable. I don't want them living next door to me.

Depends on what immigration are you objecting to and why.

When you set fire to immigrant accommodation then you are likely to be racist.

They can’t organise it much going by this thread, everyone was very happy with the outcome.

Even if something happens to someone Brighton won’t react as other areas, because it’ll be seen as a one off and downplayed.

It’s the best way to use the social welcome and avoid backlash.

Really? I thought you were for an inclusive society. I wouldn't want Polanski supporters living next to me either. Then again, I don't come from a starting point of saying they are welcome in the first place.

Even if the are bad at organising, they still pose a threat. But you are happy with that as long as it's not where you live.

It's difficult to understand why you have a problem with anti racism rallies

LuckyHazelFox · 14/06/2026 15:32

Nobody has a problem with anti racism rallies. They have a problem with fascist bullies using tactics which they are meant to oppose.

Seems like a fair swap I’ll take the people who knocked a few bins over and you can take the unlimited flow of men from countries where women aren’t allowed to leave the house.

Where did I post that? The opposite, I’ve said it’s good they’re indicating how welcoming they are and it should be heard and more people housed in Brighton.

You proposed building baracks didn't you?

Back to this, Labour use barracks. Have you missed that still? And you support them. Why pretend you mind.

MyLimeGuide · 14/06/2026 15:43

I have a problem with the people of Brighton, they are a bunch of snobby superior lefty liberal do gooders! Give them the immigrants then even though we all know they wouldn't really want their super rich bohemian city over run with immigrants lowering the tone, and fat boy slim!! Who cares what he thinks! Seriously

The only people associating us with the racists are the ones that want to shut down all conversation.

This is the trans debate all over again. False and spurious accusations of being ‘far right’ because the left deplatformed everyone so comprehensively that the only platforms left were those deemed ‘far right’ (like the Telegraph among others) and then many of us were smeared as ‘far right’ by association.

pretend that everyone is just moderate reasonable and 'concerned' while simultaneously hanging off SYL and his ilk.

Is that a sly dig at me? I have said repeatedly that I haven’t listened to anything he says. I have never associated myself with him, that is all coming from the left. Why is it my responsibility to disassociate myself ?

This constant accusation is just another attempt to shut down conversation and smear us all.

But the aggression, the groundless accusations of not condemning violence, the insults, sneering and laugh emoji in place of intelligent rebuttal from the right on here really grinds my gears.

Weird, until I saw the word ‘right’ I thought you were describing on the people on the left in this debate. Aggression, sneering, constant and spurious accusations of ‘racist’ ‘fascist’ and nothing intelligent to say on the matter. I’ve seen a number of examples on this thread - are we reading the same thread?

If you think the anti immigration protesters we've seen of late aren't associated with the far right you're deluded. Why do you think the turn out is limited to a few hundred shipping themselves in rather than a mass of peaceful protesters, vastly outnumbering counter protesters?
Racism and the far right are always front and centre of any anti immigration protest and that, and their thirst for violence, is alienating moderate people and stopping them joining the conversation.
And yes, you're right, it is like the TRA all over again. Violent angry men taking to the street, then when anyone dares to criticise them, boo hooing about having no other option because no ones listening and they're prevented from existing, when the reality is, their voices were everywhere. Just like the right assuming victim status and claiming to be silenced when they never stop banging on about immigration and no one has silenced them yet.
I'm not sure why you think I'm having a dig at you personally. I don't even know who you are. And if you're not a far right racist who defends SYL, then clearly I'm not talking about you.

I have a problem with hypocrites, yes. Violence is a concept that doesn't pertain to anybody in particular. If somebody is saying violence is unacceptable while staying silent on violent methods used for their own cause, I have no time or respect for. That applies to the pro trans anti-semitic movements and anti immigration riots.
