    Just been for a walk to Greys Monument

    it seems there are more protectors than protesters
    and more protectors at the Cenotaph

    the protesters are standing behind the banner
    with about 15 deep defenders between them and the monument
    including a lot of ex military with their Berets of different colour
    Police are in the middle

    Looks to me like people were just bored and some were looking for a fight. I do wonder how many of those either defending or protesting these statues could speak for more than 60 seconds on the people who the statues are about.

    I think you can hear them:

    "anyone know who this kunt was?"
    "nah but i needed to get out the house mate, wife and kids doing my head in"
    "you got any beers?"
    "got some back at mine, fancy coming round for 7?"
    "social distancing mate, we can't"
    "ah yeah of course" *winks*

    He's talking bollocks.

    "I buy products made by slaves. So do you. We are both going to keep on doing so. We should not, therefore, protest against the existence of racism in the UK. Moreover, people who say they are protesting racism are really just subversives."

    Utter nonsense.

    he's right

    slavery still exists and they profit from it.

    why is that ok?

    isn't it more important than a comedy sketch?

    he's making valid points

    No. He is saying we are all complicit in something bad so we should not try to eliminate something else which is also bad. Because we are all sinners, it is hypocritical to try to do anything good so we should all do nothing. Complete ****e.
