    What a bunch of pricks. Good to see one of them try and stop it, would have been interested to see how that played out afterwards.

    Guarding a memorial that was already covered up by those authorities, and when there was no actual BLM protest taking place there.

    I'm pleased that my cynicism is misplaced.

    I have to say in all the interviews I've seen of various black contributors over the last fortnight, I haven't seen one talking about racism against other minorities especially asians. It is very much about black people.

    One thing I've noticed over the years relates to football in particular. Because there are plenty of black footballers, the focus of anti-racism within the establishment of the game is very much about why there aren't more black managers. To me this is the focus because those who lead it are black by and large with white colleagues who will support them. I've never ever heard them talking about the lack of asian footballers coming through at grass roots level. About 15+ years ago I just happened to go to a few trials, not for myself but just to support others. You get all youngsters, black, white, asians etc. I used to know some talented asian youth. There were at least 2 occasions where without doubt the most talented player there was Indian. At the end, didn't get a look in. They couldn't even get their foot through the door into the sport. So much real talent wasted. And potential futures curtailed. And no one gives a fck. But you know, apparently the only real priority is the lack of black managers.

    Gonna say it again...how can you "protect" monuments to those who died in world war two by joining up with modern day fascists who use Hitler salutes and have swastikas?

    Those ****ers would have been marching with Mosley's Blackshirts in the 30s and siding with Hitler during the war.

    The man in the video is misguided at best or at worst a liar.

    They obviously haven't been looking at that statue hard enough to learn about their history.

    I think the people at the picnic maybe were targeted, because they hadn't gone to protect the statues, which of course, instantly makes them traitorous scum.

    Can’t post that, mate. It doesn’t meet the criteria on here. Feel free to post what right wing protesters have done today but just be a good lad and don’t post social media tweets when BLM are causing havoc and injuring the police <ok>
