You are far right when it comes to crime/punishment.

Not at all - I believe in rehabilitation for low level offenders which the far right certainly dont subscribe to.

However do I believe that people who know the laws/rules deserve a firm hand when they knowingly flount them? Do I believe in lenghly sentences for dangerous/repeat offenders with none of this early release nonsense? 100% I do.

What about advocating a police state?

It doesn't happen as we have a cowardly government - I bet the majority of the country would back these protesters getting a clip for flounting the rules time after time during a global pandemic whilst they continue to make sacrifices to keep the country from collapse.

Some protesters "getting a clip" and tear gassing crowds aren't the same thing.

Imagine being this brazenly ill informed over and over again.

Are you okay with the use of police dogs and the tactics by the police last night?

Our police are soft in comparison to the majority of the world.

Go protest illegally during lockdown in places like Spain, Italy, France, China, Russia, USA etc and see how you would be treated in comparison...

So far I've seen videos of a girl being smashed to floor, police bringing their shields down on sitting protesters with force, police hitting a man on the ground with their batons and police assaulting a journalist.

Yet the media is silent apart from quoting the PM who dismisses the protesters as being violent. We should not be accepting this as normal.

Apparently someone fired a firework at a horse.

It's like some sort of hybrid kopite-geordie assault tactic.

Scary times.

Depends what you're protesting.

I’m not sure you have the evidence to back all of that up. And, even if you did, ‘but they did it too’ is an argument you were supposed to have grown out of by the time you’re out of nursery.

The irony lol lol lol

 

[emir]

lets hope the police clamp down hard on the mob in batley protesting about pics of mohammed.

So you don't believe in the freedom of protesting about something openly provocative?

As an ex Troskyite, with 20 years experience of demo's, I know how this works.

Peaceful demonstrations garner little publicity, so a good punch up with the peeler's makes for front page news.
