@AyoCaesar Correct, now fuck off

@narindertweets Indians were British ‘Subjects’ - not ‘Citizens’ during the empire.. big difference. Let’s deal with facts.

@DPJHodges Maybe it’s not about ‘playing this’ - spinning a young man’s tragic death for personal benefit. Maybe it’s about being honest and telling it how it is to enact the actual change we need. You’re so far gone into the swamp you can’t see humanity, you just see a game.

@DaleVince Decline in red meat consumption is far more likely due to increased prices than the ‘choice to eat more healthily.’

@DavidLammy Is this a joke? Why prioritise based on race?

@albieamankona This isn’t football hooliganism

@GNGSmethwick You don’t need to carry a Kirpan to be faithful to your religion. Also, stabbing someone to death with it isn’t carrying it responsibly.

[Simon Thomas @SiTom211]

@PeterStefanovi2 It’s still at disgracefully high levels

@MasterMaliq @mrrembrandmrs It is enslaving because it enslaves the mind and body within a closed dogma of submission and reverence. Islam is inhumane.

@stellacreasy Coming from someone who doesn’t know what a woman is, pretty sure you’ve no idea what makes a man

@SarahTheHaider @estherzelda0514 Your description is sympathetic to the practice - as if it should somehow be tolerated as a mere difference in culture. It suggests child marriage is a cultural route to respectability whilst failing to mention the life of sexual abuse and imposed servitude the girls will endure.

[Simon Thomas @SiTom211]

@SarahTheHaider @estherzelda0514 Selling children into marriage ‘still a path of respectability’ - what a hideously medieval culture. What’s wrong with you?

The government forecast private school numbers would drop 6% after VAT was added to fees.

Now, the data from Scotland shows secondary schools registrations have fallen 15% - numbers from the rest of the UK will be similar.

Far from raising money, the policy looks like it will cost the taxpayer millions.

Meantime in Europe, parents get a tax break for using private schools - as they’re saving the state the cost of funding.

Another poorly thought through policy.

@DjedSpence You’re not looking at the ball and then go down like a sack of shit, embarrassing

[Simon Thomas @SiTom211]

@SarahTheHaider @ChristinaPushaw Naivety like yours is what helps enables such evil.

@BBCNews Zero Islam and a re-industrialised North

@RhonddaBryant Don’t be a dickhead

[Simon Thomas @SiTom211]

@TorstenBell You’re confusing the modern, socialist, mechanisms of state with hundreds of years of history and culture.

[Simon Thomas @SiTom211]

@Keir_Starmer We’ve welcomed vast numbers of people into the U.K. who violently detest us. This march represents the Great British people who are fighting AGAINST the division which has been forced upon our country. It’s staggering that an PM of a country can be so ignorant of its people.

I’m not a Tommy Robinson supporter but I intend to go to the march on Saturday. It’s the biggest march of the year, so, as someone who covers protests, I obviously want to be there.

But my face will be recorded and added to the government’s database of march attendees. You’d have to be pretty naive not to realise the government might use this against us down the line. Especially after the confirmation yesterday that digital ID is still on the agenda.

I could go to the pro-Palestine march instead and my face won’t be logged.

Has there ever been a regime that treats its own people with such contempt and suspicion while giving a free pass to those who actively hate the country or support terrorists? This is only the latest incident in a long series of two-tier decisions made concerning protests in recent years.

The kind of people who support Tommy Robinson aren’t even hard-line right wingers. Generally speaking, they’re relatively apolitical civnats who love their country and don’t mind foreigners as long they’re not committing crimes.

It really is quite incredible that proudly flying the national flag is enough to make the government treat you like a dangerous criminal.
