Having seen the unrest up and down the country, would you still consider attending such a “protest”

    It was just an example of the generic bs that gets quoted and is then refuted by facts. Only to be posted again by the same people time and again. Such as:-
    We take more immigrants than anyone else.
    Why should we feed and clothe them? We're the only ones daft enough to do it.
    I guarantee your fellow travellers will be posting it again shortly.

    Oh I don't deny the patronising bit. The thing is I haven't made a stupid comment about a Human Rights treaty being a "bit old" and inferring that it was, therefore, not relevant.
    You carry on though. You say that we don't know you. Well we can only go by what you post.

    I'm pretty sure most do not favour any immigration.

    I'm not sure they really accept the Scottish, Irish or Welsh. They certainly don't like the Poles, Romanians and Bulgarians.

    I mean where do you start with this as been said by many before me the thugs have used the deaths of those poor innocent young girl's to promote there racist agenda. The Brexit argument rears its head again my view is we weren't in a position to make that decision the argument put down by both sides was full of lies and misinformation. We were sold it on the three words take back control the problem been they didn't have a clue how to. We now have no immigration policy whatsoever they are just stockpiling human beings,this makes them easy targets for the morons that turned up yesterday. Do we need a clear effective policy of course we do we can't have a open door policy we are a small island but needs to fair and effective neither of which it currently is.

    "But the immigrants had machetes and were waving their dcks about".

    No. They tooled themselves up with anything they could find inside the hotel and barricaded themselves inside their rooms because they were scared.

    And with over 1200 people attending and probably 1000 mobile phones, I've seen the square root of fck all evidence of this. If a forriner took their lad out, it would be plastered all over socials.

    Firstly it's not. Many of the people crossing the channel are women and children.
    I accept that the majority are young males. Secondly, they are the ones with age and physical strength on their side so are most likely to get the furthest.

    It is not the first wave of the "great replacement" for those hard of thinking.
