Why are they all shouting "Shame on You" towards the police - when it was the RNLI who brought them all to shore?

Surly they should be shouting this towards the lifeboat crews....?

You miss my point

I am all in favour of the RNLI and think they are incredibly brave in the role they do.

What I don't understand - is why the protesters aim their resentment at the police?

It wasn't the police who brought them ashore, they were moving them to a processing centre.

What were the protesters wanting the police to do - just ignore them and allow them to drift off into the country....?

Because they’re thick.

I don’t get why everyone is in favour of this level of immigration.
Look at Sweden -they’ve only now got the monthly gang shootings between immigrant gangs under control but they haven’t got control of bombings
This is a headline from 2025
Sweden, a country of mild-mannered people, is seeing a record rise in heinous crime. Ten people were shot dead on Tuesday. Such has been the rate of blasts and shootings, that Swedish PM Ulf Kristersson was forced to admit that the government had "lost control". This is how immigrants from the Middle East and Balkan nations ended up taking over the European nation.
Look how easy it is to post an SM an offer of a few £Ks and you can get someone killed, (Ann Widdecombe) shot whatever. Imagine if a group of incomers decides the BBC has not been respectful enough to their beliefs and get the DG shot -how could anyone control this -they can’t -the U.K. Gov is cowardly and insane to put us at such risk -that’s ignoring all the sexual attacks we’ve already had

Who has said anything on this thread, favourable or otherwise, about the levels of immigration?

And small boats specifically, literally no one wants that to continue. Even people who might be in favour of totally open borders aren’t in favour of dangerous sea crossings.

That doesn’t mean that standing around shouting at RNLI volunteers makes you anything other than a complete cock.

PompeyRNLIsupporter · 08/09/2026 12:29

I live locally and know most of the crew. I have name changed, but been on this site years.
The protestors are on social media naming the crew and publishing addresses. It’s absolutely disgraceful that volunteers who are caught up in all this are being doxed.

Shame on people disrespecting folks like my DH who volunteers for the RNLI and has saved many a life, earlier this year he saved 2 young children who were on an inflatable swan quite a way out to sea but yes shame on him for doing that and shame on me as I was an RNLI lifeguard and managed to save a few lives. Suggest you research the Penlee Disaster.
I'm hoping you just posted this extremely insulting goady shite to get a reaction if not shame on you

I mean, you can imagine whatever you like 🙄
The reality is that harassing the RNLI is about as ignorant as you can get.

These tubby masked fools hardly look capable of saving their own lives, should any of them get into trouble at sea! Idiots.

OsfameronTanamoril · 08/09/2026 12:36

Ann Widdecombe was killed by a British man.

Send them back to France. There’s no war or danger there or the other multiple countries they have crossed on their journey.

That is nothing to do with the RNLI. They are not political, they are not employed by the government they just get people out of the water.

These groups of men in balaclavas are getting very bold and are very intimidating. They started off wearing face masks, having found this a convenient excuse after covid. It should have been nipped in the bud then and the issue of face coverings being used to threaten, frighten, commit crimes and assaults has got completely out of control, with police standing by while groups of men scream, shout and threaten others, particularly at women.
Now they are brazenly using balaclavas to shop lift, steal and race cars, steal and use electric bikes to intimidate drivers and block roads, race through families on pedestrian crossings. Nobody can do anything.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 08/09/2026 12:56

In both WW1 and WW2 the RNLI saved German lives at sea as well as Allied ones.
Some people complained about that at the time.

Fortunately active members of the RNLI are clearly equipped with a moral compass.

CaptainMyCaptain · 08/09/2026 09:28

This. What are they supposed to do? Throw human beings back in the sea?

That’s exactly what the thugs want them to do

or at least, that’s what they say. Who knows if they’d be able to drown someone themselves

Ann Widdecombe was killed by a British man.

Who paid him to do it? We don’t know.

Yes. I set up a Direct Debit after that speech.

Me too.

Kayaker Joy brought water …to the protestors.

RNLI Portsmouth is off service due to intimidation. Hope no one needs them.

I had not understood properly, you are correct.

I read a post on Facebook early this morning that is worded in such a way as to suggest that she was helping the migrants, not the protesters.

No, I do not support her.

maybe the RNLI?

That’s ok @PixieFairySprite , there is a lot of mis-information flying around. I thought you’d got the wrong end of the stick xx

Ah, there was I thinking that it restores faith in humanity to know that there are people who would try to help in that situation. And then it turns out that Kayaker Joy is a racist fuckwit like those ridiculous men. How disappointing.

Anyone shouting, or advocating for shouting, 'shame on you' at the RNLI are scum. Lowest of the low, pure and simple.

Is that what the OP did? Or were they asking how the protesters made their decision about who to shout at?

ThereIsNo · 08/09/2026 15:06

Balaclavas. Intimidation. Naming volunteers online.
And this is Patriot Platform, claiming to defend British values?

If you want to see British values, look at the RNLI volunteers they’re targeting: service, courage, compassion and community.

That’s patriotism. Not intimidation.

The hypocrisy, the irony of this masked intimidating group . Stupid, thick people.

DinoLil · 08/09/2026 15:09

There are only two offshore lifeboats on the Island. What would have happened if there was an emergency and they were needed?

PompeyRNLIsupporter · 08/09/2026 15:11

@DinoLil Hayling will have to go at the moment.

PompeyRNLIsupporter · 08/09/2026 15:13

@DinoLil sorry you mean IOW. I always call Portsmouth “the Island” 🤣
