Just to clear it up for the easily confused, both the London thread and the cultural enrichment thread, which was essentially an I Hate Muslims thread, were both started by the Drunken Communist. The approach and contributions to both seem quite similar: post as many negative articles you can find.

That thread is before my time too but the fact is, that Knype has dived in feet first and not realised that they were talking about the London thread, NOT this one. Ha ha, so it's my fault RWB has basically gone balls deep and related it to an anti Muslim thread ? 🤣 Race does not have to equate to the reason behind every argument on a thread. I’ve had many disagreements on this thread which are purely down to me being supportive of the Police. There are of course cases where they deserve to be hammered but there’s a good few where I believe they’re unfairly judged or don’t get credit (like the one in Brixton). Do I get the arse? yep. Has it gone anything to do with race? no. I’ve had one poster on 2 occasions accuse me of being racist which I find incredibly offensive (especially considering some of the work I do / have done with black people and some of my good friends). On both occasions the posts were removed. It really grinds with me when people come out with this claptrap about posts being about race when someone from a non white ethnic background is involved, can I not just like Khan because he in my opinion is not doing a great job from what I see and hear. I don’t hear people jumping on there high horse when theres posts hammering Sunak or Patel.

To be fair, there's no reason for Cobham not to post positive stories about the capital either but it appears that he has absolutely no interest in doing so, it's just a torrent of one way negativity demonising the place. There are plenty of people who LIVE in London who have challenged his characterisation of the place but it just seems to fall on deaf ears. The thread probably should have been called "How do we tackle knife crime in our inner cities?" or something similar and we could have had a genuine discussion about possible solutions but instead it's just a constant barrage of targetted negativity, meaning that any possibility of discussion is futile.

The approach and contributions to both seem quite similar: post as many negative articles you can find. You mention the 'easily confused' yet the the creator of those other threads is irrelevant to this thread, and there are other threads such as the 'govt is an utterly shambles' thread that are full of negative posts. So if people get confused it's probably trying to figure out what points you're trying to make.

Start a new thread then? Well I was kind of hoping that the London thread had died a death, nobody's posted on it for a week or so, so hopefully your suggestion wont be necessary. But it's not a bad shout, let's see what happens (if anything) with the other thread.

Exactly. Just like it was on the I Hate Muslims thread! Like I said, same basic approach on both threads. Both started by the same poster. Probably just a coincidence.

A fair point and when things start changing I’m happy to do so but whilst its like it is I’m happy to highlight my concerns. That said your comments re one way negativity could apply visa versa to any of those below Met thread Government thread Unions thread Monarchy thread I guess it’s all about a persons perspective on things. Generally the people that pull me up on the London thread share the same political views but there’s a good few that agree with me too. In relation to the London thread unlike the Government thread Im not putting numerous twitter links a day either, yet I don’t hear the same criticism on there when the volume is far worse than the London thread.

So if people get confused it's probably trying to figure out what points you're trying to make. Correct. But I was talking about the originator of the London thread and the I Hate Muslims thread as being the same, not this one. Which seemed clear enough to me (and Paul Spencer hence his comment) and prompted my reference to the easily confused!

I posted way more 'positive' stories on the Cultural Enrichment thread than you ever did, infact, I'm pretty sure you never posted a single one, you just kept seeing race in everything. But, lets hold you to your own rules for a minute shall we, is that okay? There's currently a near 900-page long thread relating to our current Government, in that thread you've made multiple thousands of posts (Making up nearly 20% of your entire input to this forum overall) and not a single one of them is positive, they're all negative, and a huge majority of those negative posts are aimed at Rishi Sunak, Suella Braverman, Kemi Badenoch, Kwasi Kwarteng, Sajid Javid & Priti Patel etc... So shall we rename that thread to the "Bluers hates non-whites running the country" thread? Or do you think that'd be daft & you have genuine gripes with how things are going & it's nothing to do with race? You know, kinda like when you're watching people at a Cologne New Years Eve party being sexually assaulted on a massive scale, or people are being stabbed to death on a daily basis in our capital city...

When you say, there's a fair few who agree with you, what do you mean by this, that they agree there is too much knife/violent crime in London? That it’s not a great place to visit / live. But London has grown in population by over a million in the last ten years, whilst house prices have soared and it is the most visited city in Europe by tourists by some margin.

Bollocks. If I remember correctly, your very first post on the I Hate Muslims thread was negative and designed purely to kick off exactly the kind of thread it turned into, before being locked by Admin. You're right, I did avoid posting on it, it was "a cesspit of racist bigotry" (not my words, but a pretty accurate description nonetheless). No great surprise that Admin canned it. You're also right that I post a lot on the government thread, you know, that one which is concerned about things which affect us all throughout the country, rather than a very focussed stream of invective about muslims or knife crime in one city in the UK, while ignoring other cities entirely. I find the similarities between the two threads quite obvious, including yourself as originator. Even the majority of the government's supporters have done one from that thread. Even the risible FYD has given up trying to defend the defensible, what does that tell you! When things start changing I’m happy to do so but whilst its like it is I’m happy to highlight my concerns.

What a ridiculous thing to say. You're accusing him of being critical of Sunak, Braverman, Badenoch, Kwarteng, Javid and Patel because of their race but NOT because they're politicians? The thread is about the government, they are all (or have been) a part of the government but the only link that YOU can identify between them, is that they're not white? Hmmm ...
