Anti-racism protests

Quoted from arryarryarry

Tony Blair said a few thousand Eastern European migrants would come here when hundreds of thousands came.

Most politicians talk bollox. If you see one moving his/hers lips you can bet they are lying.  

PS Has that lying twit Blair ever apologised about the Iraq war?

Please don't mistake me for a supporter of Blair's stance on the Iraq war. I campaigned hard against the Iraq war and as far as I'm concerned he broke International Law and should be forced to defend his actions in a court of law. To answer your question...No

I am not against immigration I don't care what country they come from as long as they want to work.

There are many jobs in this country like on the farm picking fruit and veg.

Not to mention all the staff in the NHS  where we would be lost without them.

We need them more than ever now.,

"Black Lives Matter" protest to take place this Sunday from the boating lake to Brighton Street slipway.

Looks they've learnt from last time and are stopping it short of the Memorial Gate to avoid the trouble they had last time.

Remind me again what they are protesting about in the UK, which is one of the most diverse and multicultural countries in the world.

I might be mistaken but I thought I saw in the Telegraph article that it was being organised by "Hope No Hate"-An organisation I thoroughly enjoyed working alongside in the 2015 General Election where they made a massive contribution to ensuring failing Victoria Ayling  UKIP got well beaten.

I think UKIP had the last laugh there. 2016 ring any bells?

Some of the views put forward in this thread just make ones mind boggle...I mean everyone has an opinion and is entitled to it but I mean we’re a moment away from someone claiming the UK doesn’t have a problem because we have Indian and Chinese take always...

I can’t be arsed to read through every page but I’m guessing the phrase ‘woolly liberal’ has been used, I’m guessing patriotism has been used to mask racism and so on...

I mean really, if people can’t see the point in protesting then I guess they’re missing the point entirely. But each to their own...

That is the trouble with you woolly liberals - whenever you see a viewpoint that doesn't fit in with your world view it makes your minds boggle.

It is a perfectly valid argument to say the UK has a more diverse population than many countries.  We do not have a history of racial tensions as in the USA, we have some of the most strict anti discriminatory laws in the world and in the workplace you cannot move for rules apertainig to diversity, racial and otherwise.

I ask again, what is a protest in Cleethorpes to do with a murder in the USA?

The BLM organisation in the UK is just a cover for anarchists to try to get their political ambitions across because they cannot do it through the ballot box.

What sort of a anarchist could achieve their political ambitions through the ballot box?!

You’ve got to be the thickest person on here, and that’s some going.

That's exactly what I said! They cannot get what they want through the ballot box so they don't bother with the little matter of democracy.

People in glass houses and all that.
