Not quite true glyn while it is disgusting whoever even turns up for these protests during these times there was a large rally of blm and they threw punches on Westminster bridge at the others trying to get to parliament square so it’s not all one sided
I don’t doubt that some of the far right people were out there to cause trouble but I also think that the BLM group had been infiltrated by some people who also wanted to cause trouble.Neither side could claim that their protests had been trouble free.

It's reassuring when you see the flag abroad when used in the right way that you have something in common with others while far from home. I disregard a lot of the tat that uses the symbol the same with the flag of St. George.That's my opinion you are welcome to yours. I'm fed up of people having digs about what happened in the past and laying guilt on generations that had nothing to do with it.

We expect THEM like the Japanese and French come to that to OWN their history in perpetuity. Hence the 12 bombers songs sang at every England game and yesterday of course where some thought imitation of the Nazi salutes etc were fitting outside or rather around a monument to Churchill.

All of them were peaceful except the one that was attacked in Trafalgar Square.The vast majority of violence yesterday were far-right thugs attacking the police.So all of the BLM protestors are aiming for violence but only 'Some' of the far-right. Is that it hound?
I don't think blm are provoking I think they are challenging society to sort it, to finally end all the promises all the talk and get it done as our racist in chief would say. And it's about time wouldn't you say dbr?SM has said the policy of kick it out is to reducate rather than exclude which was my thinking until I heard his argument but good luck with some of these. Any of them that are racist and violent I think should be banned from football on top of what ever penalty they may get through the courts.What are their overall objectives dbr?

Here's the poster boy of the Fat Lads Alliance.
But they are not asking for a lot dbr, just to be treated with the same respect as other ordinary people, you think that is too much to ask?
