I saw an item on TV this morning where a uniformed senior British
police officer was warning about "Hate crime" on the media.
He stated quite clearly that it would be consided to extraditing
US citizens who made such comments.
That might seem over the top but remember the Assange case.
It is "said" that extradition of Elon Musk to the UK was considered.
In light of all that perhaps we should be careful of we put up here.
I imagine it would be easier to exradite someone from Australia than the US.
The world has gone truly mad !

Hi Bezza,

We're told that fewer Britons support the riots and
disorder, with the vast majority saying it is
unjustified and the views of the rioters are not
representative of the wider community.

The falsehood that the Southport attacker was a Muslim
and a migrant was an idea floated by extremist agitators
running the riots in scenes repeatedly shown on news
outlets - to inflame and stir hatred.

Their claims about the suspect were simply not true.
He was neither a migrant nor a Muslim.

The suspect was named to be a British national born in Wales
to Christian parents from Rwanda.

Despite attempts to debunk these provocateurs and stirrers
the damage was done. Social media had done its job with its
disinformation and its proliferation of its dangerous
conspiracy theories - its targeting primarily of people of
immigrant and Muslim families with abandom.

The tragedy lies in the dupes falling for this malicious
ploy and forgetting that as these rioters flaunted footage
of their hate crimes - ethnic minorities and asylum seekers
in Britain were paralysed with fear.

So glad to be living in Australia - which seems to have
extremists on the fringes of society with no real clout.
And who are a tiny minority here.

Nigel Farage wants to deport all illegal aliens, and get out of the European Convention on Human rights. There is no “right” to enter a country illegally.

Farage wants a referendum to decide what the British people want. After all, Labour did not mention legal or illegal immigration in the pre-election spiels. Same in Australia.

Noone now wants to talk about it in the UK Parliament.

Under the previous Labour government and Home Secretary Blunkett 50,000 illegal aliens were deported in one year alone. Membership of the ECHR now makes that impossible.

Since deportation has stopped, illegal entry has increased, and along with it, the enormous problem the UK now has.

"We're told that fewer Britons support the riots and disorder, with the vast majority saying it is unjustified and the views of the rioters are not representative of the wider community."

Well I guess its possible to find sites that will tell you what you want to hear, and we know Foxy is a master at finding such sites. But its also easy to find information that will tell you the truth. The two are rarely the same.

Yougov poll from 9 August....

8% of Britons have some sympathy for those "causing unrest at recent protests".

BUT...

58% somewhat agree with those taking part in the protests.

AND...

47% think the protests are justified.

Some of the reasons behind this include what is being two-tiered policing whereby the favoured ethnic groups get treated with kid-gloves and the book is thrown at whites.. eg

Liverpool man gets 15 weeks gaol for making a racist comment on Facebook
Essex man gets 2 years gaol for selling racist stickers.
London man gets 180 hours of community service and no gaol time for repeated raping 12 year old girl.

I'll leave you to work out the ethnic groups they belong to.

The likes of Foxy won't understand this by Christopher Hitchens nailed it 15 years ago.... http://x.com/Burner_BCF/status/1822315253624983562

Enjoy this while you can. There will come a time when these type of discussions will no longer be possible.

Albanese Labor's tolerance of an extremist cancer in our society through the unholy alliance of woke progressivism and extremist Islam, albeit on a smaller scale than Europe, will inevitably bring violence to our shores. The terror threat is now "probable".

There is little support for the unrest. With the riots
receiving overwhelming opposition.

This was the link from which I cited earlier and this
data was given on the 6th August 2024 so it is recent.

It gives a good overview:
