It's very simple.

The people costing all the money, are the people with all the money.

Not the people with hardly any money.

It really shouldn't need explaining.

Douglas Carswell has skirted the line and now he's crossed it.

This is disgusting racism from a former MP who now demonstrates who and what he is.

(Exaggerated) "fears of mass unrest" were not realised.

3 disorderly attempts at violence (Hillingdon/Heathrow, Cheshunt, Canary Wharf) led to 10 arrests.

30 small protests. But one protest (Hillingdon) had 300-500 people: 1 in 10 protests (Falkirk, Braintree, Cheshunt) had 200+
Most <100
"Fears of mass unrest" over the appeal court over-ruling the high court. The Independent says police "braced" (again). There is once again a list of 23 locations where protests will be attempted. These v underwhelming (30-300 people) when previous protest "waves" announced last weekend & in July

The vast majority of British Citizens don't like roaming bands of thugs in masks carrying flags, vandalising things, being racist and generally being dickheads.

It is actually a losing move.

Lets be honest we don't need to talk about what Nigel Farage is planning to do because it is obvious.

He will hand the UK to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and the NHS to US Health Insurance, he will rake in billions and you will never have another (fair) election ever again.

When the National Front and BNP tried to do this they were shutdown, taken off the TV and their 'protests' were stopped.

But now they just give Nigel Farage more and more airtime.

Remarkable.

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.

Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Why do I keep seeing posts with Republicans describing alleged assassin Vance Boelter as a left-wing Democrat? Public databases show he has been a registered Republican. (Perhaps, the "No Kings" signs were part of his plan to sneak into a protest.)

Today, waking up to the news of Minnesota, I was not going to post joy. But, my friends, the person that did this wants fear and silence.

I saw nothing but joy today. People looking out for each other. We are the best version of ourselves when we stand together.
