Not sure if that's anything to argue about, wonder if it will even make the mainstream news?

I am kinda curious as to why we in the UK are allowing "free Palestine" marches in direct support of Hamas, a known terrorist organisation. Then arresting or locking up anyone who complains calling them "extreme right wing".

Almost as if Starmer and our Police are deliberately turning a blind eye to anything these Islamic extremists get up to. I guess we could argue about that...

I blame the Quran. A more spiteful book of hatred and evil you could never find. Ah but the subtleties are lost in translation they say. Well, when you're poking someones eyes out or chopping off their heads, you're right, I am missing any subtlety in that...

You couldn't make it up: the MSM have decided to spin this as a "skirmish" between football fans and "rival" Palestinians. I'm guessing for "balance" and "impartiality" they can suggest one side is as bad as the other.

The fans are there for the football, what are these gangs of Muslim immigrants there for? There is talk of lynchings, beatings, people (men women and children) being thrown into the canals. Videos on X to make your eyes water.

So the footie fans decided to tear down a Palestinian flag. WTF is a Palestinian flag doing in Amsterdam!

...and before @weeksy jumps down my throat: yes it's across the sea. No this particular rampage does no affect me directly. But give it time. The more room we give to this evil tyrannical religion, the more liberties they are going to take.

I dare not speak of the Southport murders, thousands of people were jailed for daring to speak the truth about the true motive (and what he was shouting) as he hacked those tiny children to death. The authorities knew...

Something is required else this section will be too quiet and uninteresting.

You know he was mostly joking with the thread. Does it HAVE to be dragged into the cess pit of despair?

With you on the forum it seems like a fucking life sentence fella. I've never known any suck the enjoyment out of a forum so much.

If it wasn't for the others here being so supportive I'd have closed the place down a year ago because of you.

This is a piss-taking thread aimed at folk like you who just live to fight and argue.
And here you are destroying it.

Irony overload.

Well I saw this in the Current Affair, Politics, News section shortly after you closed down a popular thread because the usual gobshite turned up to spoil things :

I took this literally and if it had been in the jokes section would not have shared a breaking news story - unrelated to the Trump election.

There was one a fellow named Screwed,
Who believed every theory he'd viewed,
He'd mutter with dread,
'There's a chip in my head!',
And claimed MSM was all skewed.

Rhetoric. What are you suggesting I don't get?

That my views are unpopular? I get that.
I have an asshole following me around like little lost puppy who delights in unloading their own inadequacies on my alias? Yep got it.
I can't understand why you can't see that but hey, nobody's perfect.

Yeah I get it, I just don't care. I posted a news article in the news section after a complaint that it would go dead in here if you keep locking all the topical threads. I feel no shame because if people don't like it, they can literally ignore me.

Sadly for you, the more you post the more likely it is they won't have to as you'll lose the ability to post here any more.
I've had enough of your postings and based upon a few things in PM, so have many others.

I've been asked by more than a few people to ban you but I resist it as that's not who I am and not what this place is supposed to be, but the simple fact is, you're making this place unpleasant for people.

They do turn a blind eye to unscheduled marches in central London which cause chaos! They don't stop the Just Stop Oil idiots either, but they've stopped the farmers from protesting! :wtf:
