    The UK is more fascist than the US, they just don’t have the blowhard leader talking stupid shit to make it clear.

    The UK needs help, liberal democracy is chained in the Old Bailey, tortured daily. I want to help, help us help anyone that has insight.

    Weird thing to write an article about.

    Would it be inappropriate to raid the house of an 84-year-old who joined a far-right protest that was suspected of having been organised to incite racial hatred? I don’t think so. The sole problem is the one we already knew about, which is that peaceful but disruptive protest has effectively been made subject to police permission.

      • The person in question was not an 84-year-old who joined a far-right protest that was suspected of having been organised to incite racial hatred

      Therefore not a weird thing to be writing an article about.

        But they did join a disruptive protest that hadn’t been approved. So… that’s to be expected.

      She’s been arrested over 30 times, and it’s getting loads of attention. This is what protestors want isn’t it? The worst thing would be to be ignored.
