Off Topic The Politics Thread

[Star of David Bardsley]

Of course It's racist, because It's a term of abuse restricted to people of a certain colour

It’s more ageist than anything and you’d like to think those it’s aimed at are so hard they wouldn’t consider it “abuse”. It’s very gammony to feign offence over something so trivial.

Gammon is certainly racist, but then, Corbyn is antisemitic and left wingers justify it...

Another interesting debate......Corbyn is certainly anti-Zionist I’ll agree....but not sure he is anti-Semitic.
To be against the state of Israel and it’s occupation of foreign lands doesn’t mean he hates all Jews....does it ??

No It's racist because it only applies to white people Snowflake is colourblind

I’m not lying. I have no reason to be lying. If you insist in calling me a liar, I assume you either think you have proof that you can share, or will apologise.

It’s just a feeling I get Wills.....I can’t put up proof of protests I’ve been on (J18, RTS, various Mayday protests and Huntingdon lab demos) but I KNOW I was there.....and only you and your conscience know if you really did protest against the Saudis.

Some of his people are. Naz Shah who's just been promoted talked about a final solution for Jews. There's a lot of lower level antisemitism

but its only white people who are racist

When have white people in Britain ever been discriminated against, or oppressed, or abused, or attacked because of the colour of their skin?

I did. Are you still calling me a liar?

There’s anti-semitism everywhere including the Labour Party. I don’t think Corbyn is an anti-Semite, speaking as a very unreligious Jew.

Is that not more of a ‘Muslim/Jew’ thing (sorry if that sounds too trivial) rather than a left wing thing ?

What I find strange is when I mentioned about the Saudi Prince visit on 2 occasions you never once said you demonstrated which would have been the most natural response especially as it would have trumped (pardon the pan) my comment. Sorry fella I don't believe you.

They haven’t but that doesn’t suit some agendas.

Yes

Now. Gammons can barely leave the house they paid £5k for and walk to their German cars without being spat at in the streets.

By middle class, trendy wannabe agitators.......like Wills

I saw a picture of a woman today holding up a sign that said "Trump get out of my country as you are not welcome here"

Didn't Corbyn approve that revolting antisemitic painting? I know he said it was dark and he had his eyes shut but...you're better able to judge than me

It stems from that, I agree

The abhorrentbtreatment being doled our to the poor LGBTQ.

What is this LBTGQ Mr Willy? It sound like DIY department store

 

[Staines R's]

I would again like to apologise for anyone I piss off on here tonight due to me being a tired, argumentative cockwomble.........sorry.

 

[Stroller]

I can't keep up.
