I’m starting to like Ed Davey. Seems to be having a great time!

because "she should be shot" right.
While this is interesting, I'd caveat it with the fact that people uniformly don't really know [Poor language removed]. Like people usually think crime is much higher than it is, and indeed the number of immigrants are much higher than they are. I'd rather use objective measures than subjective ones.View attachment 259767
A remarkable graphic for the Anti Woke party of economic stability, law and order and democratic values.
Threats and or incitement to kill is a very different crime to the throw a non lethal liquid common assault type crime.Is it impossible to find both things wrong? Or are we so tribal that it's only wrong if it's done to the "other" side?
….i posted a week ago that because the election was called at short-notice, idiots like this would slip through because of the lack of integrity checks. Journalists will be trawling through social media for more of this.
Throwing things at people isn't the end of the world, but it's pretty lame if that's the pinnacle of your ambition. I can't quite fathom what would go through someone's head that makes them think today is a good day to go and throw something at someone. That we then cheer such borishness diminishes our own arguments.Threats and or incitement to kill is a very different crime to the throw a non lethal liquid common assault type crime.
At what point did throwing eggs or rotten veg in an act of protest become a criminal offence?
I realise the nazi's I mean tories brought in powers for the pigs to harass and arrest protestors based solely on the decibel level of any such protest (I wonder who has arbitrary say there!) so how much further down the scale of common rights must we joe public find ourselves? grassing someone up because they told a joke in work? ownership of politically sensitive classical literature? not committing the right % of your salary to the 'common good cause'?
And this idea of the 'other' side bullspit is quite simply laughable, because had any side 'labour', 'lib dem' or 'the peoples action for killer whales front' been accepting money from a vocal hater of black women and suggesting such ought to be shot would lead to the exact same condemnation as with hester.
I'd expect such bad faith elsewhere Mr Wayne.
I think there is a bit of difference between cheering the action and having zero sympathy for farage. Most will find the milkshake thing silly and rather it not take place, those same people will also find farage disgusting.Throwing things at people isn't the end of the world, but it's pretty lame if that's the pinnacle of your ambition.
