How is removing a portrait ‘the stirrings of fascism’?

BECAUSE THE STATE DOESNT AGREE AND THE STATE DICTATING WHAT TEENAGERS CAN HAVE ON THEIR WALLS IS ANTI-FASCIST AND PRO FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

If you want to talk about the 'stirrings of fascism', see how many of these the current government can tick off... 8 or 9? More?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

It's ridiculous that cabinet members can break the law and half the country doesn't give a shit and the media just brush it under the carpet.

But a student union has to answer for removing a picture of the queen!!!

Bah! In my day we stuck a safety pin through her nose and said we mean it, maaaan.

Rich tossers.

It was awarded by Gove i think to Cummings pal

So the person widely rumoured to be plotting Johnson's downfall with Cummings then.

It's a joke. Like when opposition leaders are constantly getting arrested on corruption charges. I've got little doubt that the ruling is correct, but It's just amazing how all those other contracts were fine but this one happens to be one they pick out as being unlawful.

Where exactly can a student changing a poster lead to? Wallpaper? Soft furnishings? The horror!

You joke but some wallpaper can be as much as £850 a roll. This is no laughing mater.

I don't think it is just that which is the issue. It's that it starts from there and then snowballs further.

I think it is incredible that those type of people go on about 'the stirrings of fascism', yet what they end up doing is usually just that any way.

Bahahaha

He'll be able to afford it. His dad's a top US lawyer.

Bit surprised he wasn't waving a confederate flag though.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Fascism would insist that they display a picture of the head of state. This is the complete opposite of that. This is an act of freedom being carried out by a consensus. Or democracy as it’s also known.

Bahahaha

Are you saying that doing what they did is facism?

Labour supporters complete inability to understand what actually matters in electoral politics which leads to us tearing out hair out at seemingly mad voting decisions, handily expressed as the Cons getting a polling bump off the back of another corruption/racism/weird tantrum over 18 year olds not being sufficiently subservient to the Queen scandal.

ah ok. I didn’t see any relevance to politics, just a stupid comment alleging that some 18 yr olds taking a poster down was facism

The point ESB is making I think is that people care about students not taking down pictures of the Queen and the woke left will keep losing until they realise that fact.

It’s a running meme that regardless of what anyone does or how stupidly they govern the Tories gain in the polls

Anyone who really cares about the students and the picture of the Queen really does come from a gene puddle.

Yeah, government minister found guilty of breaking the law, terminally ill people deprived of benefits, fuck those stories, let's kick off about a picture.
Fucking morons.

No problems, what I get mainly conversing with you is indoctrination.

You did ask for enlightenment.

 

[Philosoraptor]

Maybe that was a bit too strong. I apologise.

Did you see how people voted Tory in the by election because Labour forced cuts on the local NHS. It didn’t, the cuts were Tory government austerity cuts but hey…. Indoctrination. What are you going to do.

Brilliant. You should ask for a refund on your Uni fees.

Dominique Samuels take on this rubbish is spot on

How is there even a take? It’s barely news worthy, but that didn’t stop Williamson spieling out some tosh and Dan Wootton sending out some drivel too.
