What does seem to be happening, reassuringly, is now people have notice about these things the anti fascists are vastly outnumbering the eejits wanting to cause trouble.

Long may that continue.
Gives you hope doesn't it

Need it all to be civil though. The last thing we need is an escalation of violence.

Hopefully just outnumbering them, and the very presence, will calm things down

Watching Sky now. Right-wing protestors goading the police, throwing missiles at them. Police at the moment are just standing firm, not reacting, much to the annoyance of some of the thick fuckers trying to get a reaction.

Chanting, "We want our country back". Fuck sake.
Right wing according to you, anyone who isn't left wing is now considered right wing according to you.

Could escalate but there's just as much chance that as soon as it pisses down they all scurry off home, lets hope thats what happens

Looks like in a lot of places those wishing to cause trouble have been massively outnumbered and have gone home with their tails between their legs

Of course the social media echo chamber means that some of these idiots will only see stuff telling them the 'demonstrations' have been a huge success and the reason they can't see it reported anywhere is because the media is lying to them
They live in a bubble being fed by their social media algorithm, what's going on now has been coming for years fueled by client politicians doing more to destroy the democracies of the west than Putin's armies ever could, the rampant nationalism on display in the media along with the online persecution of minorities like trans, immigrants and Muslims has now begun to manifest in violence on the streets, is anyone surprised, because I don't think you should be. The genie is out of the bottle and it's going to be really difficult to put the cork back in.

I think what many don't realise is that if the protesters wernt such blatant racists you would prob see British Asian and British black people join in.

That's a stupid address. 🤦

Fine to say we need to get tougher, but then just utterly condemn the violence.

It is indeed a bit ambiguous and he's saying people aren't happy and the riots are going to get worse.

Not the smartest move is it
The proud boys are fine people

Bless, like Nick, out of all the posts on here you have to reply to mine.

I think almost everyone on here has called them right wing. The news outlets are calling them right wing. It's trending on Twitter. Not just me. So what's the problem?

It's a very valid point actually.

The protests are probably smaller,
because there are clearly some right wing extremists, racists and violent thugs involved.

If it was more sensible, I am sure more people would join.

Multiple arrests made in Bristol. They don't say if it is the right wingers, the anti fascists or a mixture of both groups.

They're the kind of cheap flags you get from the garage just before a football tournament, he's a loathsome twat, is that a thinly veiled threat about how bad it could get in a the coming weeks, Trumps mini-me.

What's horrible is that the victims of these race attacks could end up deciding they hate "white" people and division grows worse

Vice versa too if in innocent white person attacked by MDL

I didn't go for my daily walk today just incase cov and Bedworth is having it's fairshare of twats out and about

Nothing to do with right wing racists though..
They're very sensitive- on here anyway - being labelled right wing. Not sure what they do want to be called.

Been out for a few hours.

Opened twitter to see all countries pleading for citizens to lead Lebanon and violence up and down the country.

What will we wake up to tomorrow?

The amount of people kicking off up and down the country now is insane.

I'm struggling to believe it's all 'far right'.

Granted it may well have been instigated by them but it seems to me that it's a shitload of people absolutely fucked off with the state of the country in general, not just immigration and it's come to boiling point
I agree. However, I think a lot of people are thoroughly pissed off with uncontrolled immigration and they're not "far right" at all in the context of being violent or racist.

Why would they want to be labelled anything ? It's just a label. It means nothing . Most people couldn't give a toss.

That's not true. Most people DO care about it. Might be just a label to you but not to the communities they are burning all over the country.

You talk as if it's just a couple of posters on here calling them far right or right wing. It's all news outlets for a start.

At the Rialto for a UB40 tribute act to take some of the edge off things if that’s helps anyone ha ha

Nobody scrapping. All love. All kinds.
This is what we had today and it was lovely.

That's not what I've said at all and you know it. You're clearly very highly strung because you think the world will end this weekend.

Touchy. What do we call these people destroying communities, attacking police and beating people up?

The news outlets ffs, you can't take them seriously, people are pissed off with muslims and immigration, children getting stabbed and blown up, raped and abused, isolating themselves and not integrateding. Views of a lot of this country, Europe and the western world

Blimey. Only Muslims do that, do they? Wasn't a Muslim in Southport.
