Forums Forums National News Black lives matter protests

Sadiq Khan is ordering a commission to review statues, change of street names, and buildings. What a tw-t !!

He always was a complete nutter. I won’t be watching formula one any longer until Hamilton gets knocked off his perch.

It’s all so self-defeating, it would have been called censorship by the same people that are promoting this ,... except for sadiq Khan, he wants everybody to live in a little 2ft x 2ft religiosity cell, complete nutter.

It’s going to get worse, after years of being punished by Tory governments, this is the touch paper for general unrest. We’ve been a bit late, other countries started a year ago.

We are the 5th richest country in the world and we are closing public facilities, we have been robbed blind by our own Government, wake up people.

Are you also inciting unrest against the Government of the day , DD ? Be careful what you wish for , you well know what can happen with a such a mix of issues all at the same time .

I am stating the inevitable, it’s happened before and it will happen again.

I don’t approve one bit, the fault is the greedy people who believe a Tory government will make you richer. How much evidence do they need, not satisfied with robbing your money they are robbing lives as well.

The weathers changed, is that the governments fault DD seeing everything else is according to you!

Somehow these protests and actions need to be stopped , if changes need to be made so be it.
I'm disgusted at the anarchy involved in all of these demonstrations and I can only see it inciting far right groups to start recruiting and then what , civil war! You can see it on social media starting to rev up.
Although I enjoy my social media to a point , it's got alot to answer for.

Agreed cools, the far right will not like this and tensions will just rise further. Especially if they keep ripping every statue up.

BLM don't help themselves, I have noticed they all all seem to be giving the clenched fist black power salute, so much for equality, defacing memorials, violence, inciting people to defy the police, if we wish to speak about equality, the police, lost no time in dispersing picket lines numbering over 6 and using extreme measures and violence against trade unionists you remember the enemy within, remind me again which government was it..

Should our Police Officers 'take the knee' ?

Personally, I say no, as if the police bend too far backwards they'll never get back on their feet again.. silly US ideas being brought over here, and to repeat what DD said in a previous post, 'what exactly do they want ' from all of this. It won't change anything much, they'll still get arrested if they do the wrong things.

I see Gladstone Hall, Liverpool University is to be renamed. The only PM to be elected on 4 occasions !

Well it makes you wonder granny, whether they will still get arrested,I think the police will have a reluctance to engage in case they are accused of racism, I have watched a number of these so called police shows over the lockdown, and in a lot of them black people involved appear very hostile to the police, in some cases accusing them of racism because they dared to stop them, I read a quote made apparently by a black man "black lives only matter when they are killed by a white man" think about it.

The weather is not the Government's responsibility, our money and our well-being is. But the average Tory voter loves soundbites like yours which have deep political meaning, so deep that I can't fathom what it has got to do with politics.

I think the police will be on the back foot to be honest .

Just read up on BLM Movement. Interestingly , it is funded to the tune of $100million by Open Society Foundations. Whose philanthropic agency is that ? George Soros !

I was disgusted when they defaced Winston Churchill! Setting the union Jack on fire was a total insult to all the men who lost their lives in the 1st and 2nd world war! Peaceful protests I understand but not anarchy.
It has been suggested that Winston Churchill was a white supremacist but how true this is I'm not sure!

Let's be honest, Longnails, they can find fault with just about anyone who has had a position of authority. Isn't that what anarchism is based on ?

I am expecting the Liverpool Slave Trade Museum to be closed. How can it be acceptable to make money off the back of slavery ???

Well this what happens when you have the tail wagging the dog , councils in a panic (in some cases) removing statues or street signs, yet don't have the resources to empty litter bins or cut the grass, paedophile gangs allowed to operate because the councils and the police are afraid to upset certain minorities, is this policing by consent? we will only police if you allow us.
