Have you not met todays society, Teddy? Every single thing that happens is used to create division and make us hate each other that little bit more.

Unfortunately that's the way "the left" works these days. If you don't conform to their way of thinking you're a figure of hate. Just witness some of the posts on this thread.

Talking of creating division....

Aaah, let it out, we knew anyway.

Yes we certainly do!

Us far right racists thugs don't.

I speak out about racist scum in our country - you speak up for them, constantly

We all know the score

But of course, most bigots are too cowardly to come out and actually say what they really mean, they skirt around it

But we see what you're all about...

And vice versa. Claiming one side is somehow inncocent and above the fray is either naive or disengenuous. The list of people and things hated by the "right" (Gary Linekar, Carol Voderman, James O'Brien, the BBC, the Guardian) is just as long and comprehensive as the list of people on the left hate.

True. Nixon's "enemies list" is another good example.

As Mr Bunter says; we are all racist if we don't conform to your thinking.
Your hate for anything you don't agree with is a type of racism. You are allowed to hate, but nobody else is.
Whereas I don't hate anything, I disagree and dislike certain things - but hate, no.
Your hatred spews out of every post and in your blinkered view, your hatred is acceptable.

It's simple enough.
The police released certain details about the subject after the tragedy in Liverpool to help quash racist speculation, some of it encouraged by the Far Right, which was already starting to happen. Similar speculation after the Southport incident (speculation, again, encouraged by the Far Right) led directly to rioting and further violence last year.
The details were not released to reassure the public that it was not a terrorist incident. Releasing those details would not have proven that and they could have announced it wasn't a terrorist incident anyway, as indeed they did.

Not convinced by this. You seem to be the angriest person on here.

Why is crticising the 'Right', hate - but criticising the 'Left', isn't?
Also sounds a bit #TwoTier to me.

Do that whole silly (and highly selective) TwoTier thing only come about because it rhymes with Keir, or did it predate him?

I think #TwoTierPolicing came first.

On this very page, I have been called a bigot and standing up for racists.
I don't get first prize.

I see jenrick has posted a video of himself confronting fare dodgers on the underground

Explaining his reasons for making the video, Jenrick said he was "sick to death of people fare dodging" and felt he needed to "highlight the issue".

Yes well said. I cant stand people who lie and cheat whilst the rest of us follow the rules...

"Millionaire minister Robert Jenrick has been forced to pay back more than £100 he claimed for driving between his constituency and Westminster after it emerged he took the train and claimed for both.

But he later claimed £122.40 for a 272-mile round trip up the M1 from London, at the same time as claiming for a £159 rail ticket."

Some people just can't help being greedy and dishonest

Disgraceful

You really do have all the intellect of a boiled potato

😆😆😆

Now I do regret that actually

Not even a boiled potato would be daft enough to actually praise the leader of a major political party for NOT turning up to the Commons to take part in important debates about the future of this country

My bad

I rest my case. (Although I may re-open it if the opportunity arises.)
