A demo against what exactly, they are a recognised political party and those who have turned up are entitled to do so and listen. It's exactly this type of intolerance from the far left that is so hypocritical. People can vote for any one of the parties on that ballot paper and should be allowed to do so without fear of being bullied and harrassed. Can you just imagine the uproar if a group of brexit party voters turned up to a Labour talk to demonstrate? It would be an outrage and rightly so because those labour voters should be able to listen and support the party in that way. Let people go about their own business without this utter BS.
The Xenonophbia. The hypocracy. The I am a man of the people at whe the multimillionaire is anything but. The fact the Brexit Party is just a company that was formed and he was appointed leader without a vote ( see point 2). Etc, etc
Like the time they turned up at the demo in London and threatened several female MPs? Or when they carried a home-made gallows around a march in London? BTW it is the Brexit Party plc - a company not a party.
Last statistics I saw were 4% living in/near my old postcode (Upper Castlereagh St), although it depends on which bit you are in. There is a web site that will tell you for an area - but the national average was a lot higher...
Pretty sure you can add to that list the Tories and Labour into that bucket as well. But everybody has different views and probably 95% of people in the country are not extremists of the right or left and are entitled to listen to all political parties standing in this election in order to make their own minds up. I know you obviously have a strong mining connection so will always be staunch Labour. I've always voted Labour and 99% sure that's where my vote will go this time but I'm always at odds with working out what exactly since those mining days Labour have actually done to really improve this area whilst in power.. So yes my vote could be swayed in the future. A lot of people voting now will not have been directly impacted by the impact of the mining industry being ripped apart so you have to understand how a sway in opinion will develop over time. It's just tolerance towards everyone that all generations should be creating not this belittling..
Ps - Not sure that was the Brexit party.. were they even formed when those incidents happened? But like I said regardless of whether it was, it should equally should not happen. Oh and they are still a political party regardless if they are set up as a plc or not.
It’s intolerance that shouldnt go unchallenged whether it’s Tories Labour Lib Dem’s etc . There’s a history programme called the rise of the NAZIS and they started off quite mildly getting more extreme as their campaign went on when their propaganda wasn’t being effectively challenged they upped the anti untill they became what they were but they didn’t start out like that . Your right that every party should be scrutinised and held to account .
Two separate labour campaigners in their 70s have been physically attacked and left in hospital in recent days for supporting labour but yes, peacefully showing your dismay at a disaster capitalist that is working to dismantle our country for the profit of his rich friends and spent his youth singing Hitler youth songs is the problem. Snowflake.
Political Party or Ponzi Scheme? Asking people to pay £100 each apply for the chance to be a PPC, then withdrawing over 300 of them just before the election leaving some £1000s in debt is the work of a scam artist rather than a bona-fide political party.
So you’re slagging off a peaceful protest by the ‘far left’ the day after pensioners were physically assaulted whilst canvassing for Labour, 2 seperate incidents in different parts of the country. it’s always the ‘left’ that are the trouble causers though eh? The same in Westminster where we’ve had years of annoying but peaceful anti Brexit protest, but when the Brexiteers decided they should join in, it took just a couple of days before an arrest for death threats.
Quoting out of text. I'm saying it shouldn't happen on either side. I've just had a quick search on google and it seems candidates from multiple parties have been assaulted. What is the country coming to? Don't pretend that either those on the political left or right are any more righteous than the other..
Edit: I’m not going to change the mind of anyone that equates verbally challenging people you disagree with to putting people in their 70s in hospital.
At least he can do his tie & fasten his shoelaces, are there any other credentials needed for a Brexit Party MEP? Sage & onion stuffing up his arse maybe? The proverbial turkey that is voting for Christmas.
This is a Brexit Party MEP advocating for the removal of those that disagree politically with him. I believe that was a tool used by most autocratic despots and fascists over the last century.
THIS..we have to start taking responsibility as a country for our part in turning parts of the middle east into heaps of rubble, be it directly via the (illegal) iraq war or indirectly via arms sales to the saudis and the israelis, people go on about migrants but we have a lot to answer for, get corbyn in and put an end to these arms sales...
Again, don't skew the facts. People from multiple parties have been physically assaulted. All unacceptable IMO which ever political party they support.
