Can someone tell me why the guy interviewed on local TV tonight from the demo was wearing a peaked hoodie and mask.
You could just about make out his eyes.
Why why why, if its a peaceful demo, you need to cover your identity.

Because people like jiffie make judgements on people based on photos alone maybe ?

Anyone who reads the posts back will clearly see it's a lie, you have said twice that I formed my opinion through a photo, I only posted a photo, but watched what was happening on a live video feed from BristolLive for more than an hour, a fact that I replied back to you [HASHTAG]#198[/HASHTAG], when you posted the original lie, if you never read that, that's your problem but what you posted twice was a lie.

A few years ago on TV Ian Wright was losing an argument with Boris Becker.
He reverted to calling Becker a ginger, as in ringer.
Imagine the uproar if Becker's reply had mentioned Wright's colouring.

Well those who can read anyway, [HASHTAG]#198[/HASHTAG] exposes your lie, you said 'picture' as in one 'picture', which is clearly not true.

As a tax payer of over 50 years and still paying, I have never understood the willingness of successive governments for allowing groups, who want to live outside of a society that they despise in their alternative lifestyles, but want the despicable society to fund it.

You don’t sound like a very tolerant type TBF.

I’m all for peaceful protest.
I’m saying that the people who hate our country enough to smash up police vehicles because they think of us as being a ‘police state’ should wake up and compare us to the REAL police states in the world.
We are pretty bloody lenient - too lenient imho.

Agree with your post, except the too lenient bit, although I can see your point.

You aren't Diane Abbott are you?

Why should I be tolerant towards a group of people, who hate UK society but are 'entitled' to benefits that should be for people who cannot work?, not those who do not want to work.

Why should my family who are all employed and tax payers, some of whom have been furloughed, so not bringing in the amount they would normally bring in but these people have exactly the same weekly amount, because apparently they are entitled.

It should not be allowed as a lifestyle choice. If you are happy for a proportion of your tax to fund them that's fine, I would rather see mine spent on health care, affordable homes, more police, schools etc.

That’s just a rant mate, you make rather a lot of assumptions about my views that are frankly ridiculous, we were discussing the right to be able to peacefully protest before you tried to sidetrack the debate because you lost the original one.
I’ve neither the time nor the inclination to even attempt to address the latest ridiculous post.

I haven't lost the debate, the vast majority of people in the UK have had more than enough of this band of anti democracy red fascists smashing up our towns and cities and attempting to maim or kill police officers.

The law of the land because of the pandemic says these protests are illegal and the police have every right to break them up and to use any means at their disposal.
