Humanity can only survive by uniting globally. Cooperation not competition. Resolution not escalation. Hope not hate. Alliance not conflict.

@AuFreeSpeech1 @Aiannucci @elonmusk @stclairashley Since you're making a contextless comparison... A few people you claim are Muslim are saying something (why? to whom?), compared with a few people who claim to be patriotic but rioting, looting, and destroying.

I know which is a threat the police should be doing something about.

@elonmusk @stclairashley Tomorrow morning you’ll see the people who live here tidy these streets up. Small gangs of thugs do not a mass movement make. You’ve been taken in by your own platform, which amplifies noise at the expense of facts.

These are the lads from Kingswood Homes and Southport Mosque who’ve spent the afternoon working together to rebuild the wall. An amazing effort! @MENnewsdesk

[SophieSpring97 @SophieP25397]

Update.
The #Mosque in Hartlepool that was attacked by far right thugs last year gave £25k to the British Legion through the sale of poppies. It cooked over 25k meals for people who were hungry.
Far right thugs have recently torched a #CAB, Libraries, Police vans, thrown bricks

@SEEngHwayAlerts 'moderate delays'?!? We haven't moved for over two hours!

@LeeAndersonMP_ You/we never didn't have it.

Do you mean you want to somehow reverse progress, which has always happened and always will, to some arbitrary state you're comfortable with?

King Cnut has a cautionary tale about the folly of trying to impotently influence the harmless inevitable.

@thamesclippers Did you not consider putting this information on this status display at Woolwich Arsenal? Pretty poor show... Several people here trust the information on it, and didn't notice the little "don't touch in/buy tickets until asked to board" signs

@Brumzviews @jeremycorbyn Ah, I had no idea it was necessary to read an entire book before someone could understand your tweet. Um... I'm not really interested in reading that book, though I did read your tweet. Perhaps you could summarise it for us, chapter by chapter?

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@ElizabethB52407 @Kieran_0191 @jeremycorbyn @HamedBoxing If your objective is to end conflicts sooner through peaceful, constructive negotiation then yes. That's how it's so often done. Alternatively, conflicts and their horrible human cost can be perpetuated indefinitely, if you inexplicably prefer fighting to talking.

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@Brumzviews @jeremycorbyn Perhaps they do... It'd certainly be an impressive and welcome recovery from the horrors of the holocaust if their religion is no longer an obstacle to success. I'm sure you agree that there'd be nothing wrong with someone in a position of authority and influence being Jewish.

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@chris_altv @jeremycorbyn Aren't the Israeli hostages having to endure IDF bombing the poop out of the buildings they're in?

Perhaps you could give someone an opportunity to respond to something before assuming they won't? No, I thought you wouldn't!

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@WazzaRoo11 @OwenJones84 @_ZachFoster I don't, and I don't want to, but Israel seems determined to make Jews look really bad for some reason...

You actively encouraging me to support antisemitism is pretty disgusting, why would you want that to happen?

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@JC_Saunders91 @DentTom666 @bbcquestiontime That's good advice, to "use one's eyes". Your eyesight must be phenomenal to witness everything happening all along the channel from (according to your profile) Islington. It's also odd how you changed claim from them all being "men of fighting age", thought you had solid facts?

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@JC_Saunders91 @DentTom666 @bbcquestiontime All of them? Which designer brands? What's relevance of 'fighting age'? Interesting that in one sentence you both state with certainty that none of the asylum seekers are women or children and suggest that some are women and children - unsure? What about women 'of fighting age'?

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@casuallyattired @bbcquestiontime Who aren't? How can you tell until their claims are investigated and assessed? If, as others have written, 79% of asylum applications succeed then that would seem to disprove your claim.

[Duncan Corps @DuncanCorps]

@UKAndNIasOne @bbcquestiontime If you 'defund the BBC', which services should (and can) be delivered by another organisation? 'cos that's what the phrase means... have someone else provide services and give them the funding instead.

And remember, UK law requires TV Licence and Government sets price - not BBC.

@the_jayanator @msth_19 @BrewDogJames @FairHospitality @BrewDog @unitetheunion @UniteSharon @The_TUC I feel that if a senior executive really cared about their company's profitability and whatever then they'd be the first ones to say "hey, I don't need to earn this much! lemme cut my salary and help out". But to put the burden on those who do the bulk of the real work... Grr.
