The ones with them setting the holiday inn on fire pal. Looks like they smashed up a fire exit and set the corridor on fire. Police couldn’t defend that part of the hotel as not enough of them it looks like.

I agree with you there mate pop in my thread John.

That crowd protesting here don't identify as Irish.

True, one look at that fella’s orange and blue Rangers shirt tells that entire story

Yeah dug it our. Ffs, they're seriously scum. They've literally dehumanised another group of people to the point they'd happily kill them.

The challenge is not falling into that trap in return. But I'm finding it hard in truth.

Well we don't get to tell people how they should speak.

That is up for them. I think she's merely conveying what she's been getting told by constituents.

I think it is disgraceful she's being criticised now for merely doing what she's been elected to do as an MP.

What is the alternative? What we are seeing on the streets now?

Pointless even discussing it with you mate as you clearly aren't even reading what people are saying. No one is saying she shouldn't be bringing up concerns for her constituents in parliament but she should be doing it in a much better way than that. Not really difficult to understand.

I'm not giving rioters and right wing thugs credibility and to suggest so isn't fair.

I said that I believe the MP could've made exactly the point she made without using phrasing you'd expect from the likes of Farage (they want their hotel back). That kind of language sticks; as we've seen with the 'stoo the boats' chanting. That isn't silencing. That isn't being afraid of talking about immigration. That's expecting more from our MP's.

Well you're just trying to be in your little camp. In Government, they have to govern for everyone.

You don't live in Tamworth and she's not your MP, she's there to represent people and she's doing what she's been elected to do less than a month ago.

I think you're trying to silence her, and that is why I don't agree with you.

She's not a Farage. Who has a track record of opportunism as long as your arm. She's a Labour MP, that should tell you something.

Would you be a dear and help me find the volume button on you please?

You are @ForeverBlue92 and I claim my £5.

Or Emir. I'll take £2.50 for that.

The last 100 years of history is white people just assuming that Nazis will not go Nazi.

 

[Damo_1878]

So the locals that are torching the place showing great intelligence are the people your trusting as the source for the impact on the local economy?

You’re talking about giving credibility to Tommy Robinson like it’s an infringement on free speech. Hate speech and freedom of speech aren’t the same thing. People need to get that through their heads. It’s more then legal to censor people breaking the laws around inciting racial violence

"Tommy Robinson" isn't an MP

MPs literally have something called Parliamentary Privilege, that was granted to them in the House of Commons when we elect our local MPs.

Go read what Parliamentary Privilege is.

Saw one with a middle aged woman jumping up and down clapping her hands in glee as the hotel was torched - a place with human beings inside.

Grim.

It’s been such a depressing weekend to watch unfold, it really has.

The reform popular vote numbers in the general election showed this was bubbling up underneath, but I didn’t expect them to go full kristellnacht like this.

You're trying to take the higher ground by telling me I'm silencing MP's while showing off basic level knowledge of parliament but you can't read and understand posts correctly.

I'm not the one trying to silence an MP. I do not believe she's said anything remotely wrong. In Parliament.

Close the Newest Arena... look what happens.
