Fuck. London is big, but still, so many.
Can someone put 110,000 (low estimate according to Londoin police) into perspective for a pan-European? If this was Berlin I’d say that’s very big.
The Pro-Palestine Demos were a lot bigger. So this is a lot but it could be worse.
about %70 of london voted no for Brexit. I doubt these are all Londoners. This is probably whoever the fuck funds Reform UK putting on a show. Funny thing is these idiots then went on to queue at Indian food stalls etc after the demonstration.
I had never heard of this man until last week. Since then I have learnt Robinson isn’t his real name. It was adopted to protect his family and personal life. That by itself says a lot.
He’s also been convicted of fraud, assault, using a fake passport, breaching an order multiple times about untrue stories about a teenager refugee. And a football banning order.
It sounds 90’s football hooliganism never went away with this loonie.
Serious question, is it immigration in general or is it specific types of immigrant? Is this just your typical racism or is this also anti-European as well?
It’s pretty much this…
Racism
And then there’s this:
following the arrest of an Ethiopian man who was later convicted of sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl in a London suburb.
I’m guessing they finally got the unambiguous “black man violates white girl” case they’ve been thirsting after.
But read this:
Kebatu, 41, had arrived in England by small boat just over a week before he tried to kiss the 14-year-old on a bench in the town of Epping, put his hand on her thigh and stroked her hair.
He also sexually assaulted a woman who had offered to help him with his CV by trying to kiss her, putting his hand on her leg and telling her she was pretty, the prosecution said.
This case being neither rape nor physically violent, coming from a person who just came from a country that doesn’t even have age of consent laws, does, of course, not matter to people like that Robinson person.
Or how many “white” people actually raped underaged girls meanwhile.
No, they’re happy to fan the flames, and if someone gets the impression this was violent rape then that’s OK, too.So, racism, but SA hypercharged.
Hey, UK, are you doing OK?
Man, I could have sworn tons of people said this was a U.S.-only thing.
Canada sure was confident about “elbows up” while Alberta was talking about seceding for the same reasons.
No one is immune.
Yea well it is one thing to have an openly fascist president and another thing to have one that claims to be Labour but is just a seat warmer for extreme right. Don’t know which is more preferable. Maybe the first one is better because the more outrageous it looks the more resistance it gets? The second one is just a weaselly traitor digging trenches for the fascists so might be harder to root out in the long run.
They’re not as bad as the shitshow that is 'Murica, but things are getting ugly
Nope.
UK is basically mini-US. they have the same mindset in a lot of questions, mostly economical.
and poverty is widespread in both of them.
Nope. Feels like everybody is going fucking mental at the moment.
