Every leftist insisted that I left out the context and that he must have instigated it and thrown bricks at them
Here's what actually happened: He was sitting on a wall for 30m, and when the cops decided to push into the crowd, he didn't move
We should entertain no sanctimonious lectures on the perils of anger or rage from those who, in 2020, descended into outright hysteria over the fate of a convicted criminal half a world away.
@Nigel_Farage simply voiced a truth that’s obvious to most of the country. He articulated an uncomfortable reality that systemic state sponsored discrimination against the white population. In doing so, challenged a sacred cow of the lanyard-wearing elite.
If any swamp demands draining, it’s the toxic ecosystem of Westminster: a hub of entrenched interests, performative virtue-signalling, and deep institutional rot.
No @Keir_Starmer , @elonmusk is simply articulating the plain truth. You and your lanyard-wearing elite are subjugating and tormenting the British public. Suffocating us economically while unleashing your thuggish police forces, with their mindless brutality, to arrest citizens for the mere act of speaking out.
You treat us like dogs, then feign outrage when the dogs growl and bite back? No, Prime Minister. You are the true divisive force: the cruel, heartless suppressor and the very source of the pain and suffering we endure.
The problem resides squarely with you, your Westminster echo chamber of insulated advisors, and your abhorrent, heavy-handed policing apparatus.

Watching the Brutal behaviour of @HantsPolice over the last few days reminds me of Alexander Solzhenitsyn's famous quote on much the same subject re the Soviet Terror:
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
@danwootton Exactly, Dan – They were all very vocal when it's something they want to make a big fuss about and didn't seem to care where it took place. Two-tier commentary!
