With regards to poppies, I haven’t seen anywhere selling them this year other than the badge I got from the club shop?

Robinson and his fascist nutjob followers are the scum of the earth but just like the protesters of the other march, they have every right to march peacefully. The irony is that they've used the Cenotaph which is a monument to those who perished to fight fascism in all its forms. If they spill over into violence then they should be arrested just as those on the Palestine march should be if they become violent. I feel sorry for the police who have to ensure the law is upheld with the nutjobs from either side.
OS.

Surprise surprise it is the right wing march which has so far caused problems. Not the Palastine march. Who is the far right cheerleader? Suella Braverman.

Braverman absolutely needs to go but today’s ugly scenes would still have happened without her input.

If you're going to the centopath under the guise of protecting war memorials then at least wear a fucking poppy and show respect for those who died. Feels more like a group of people using Armistice Day as a political weapon to stir trouble. Amazing how much confidence he has when he's surrounded by a bunch of thugs. Unlike another video where it was just him and his minders getting their arses handed to them and he was visibly shitting himself big time. |

My Burmese grandfather was a war hero who was captured and escaped the horror of the Japanese army in WWII. He would have despised Tommy Robinson and his EDL goons with every breath in his body.................. Who doesn’t despise Tommy Robinson and his EDL loons. The man is a nut job. See 3 posts above yours, just a group of normal people who’ve had enough apparently……. |

Plus there are people who just like to go to cause trouble. They could have picked a better day. Scum in both sides |

Why do they put the two words in quotes? Why not just quote him verbatim? I get that they are highlighting the absurdity of it, but the media are not supposed to do that. It's not thier job. Report on Tommy Robinsons actions, and then let us come to our own conclusion that he's dangerous fucking idiot.

Does Tommy and his goons realise London has a police force and can perfectly well protect the cenotaph from this perceived threat.
It's been perfectly fine for the past 3 Saturdays.

If you want to see the service, why not enter via the pavement? Why try to cause violence and trouble at a rememberance service?

Our views are aligned but that wasn't my point. Sorry, I was commenting on the video rather than your comment. I have no idea why journalists do that. I wonder if it has something to do with libel. As in the US, the UK is becoming an increasingly litigious society. |

Where are the fucking water cannons ffs? I get the frustration but it doesn’t work. These protests aren’t going away and so I imagine that the counter protests won’t either. Heavy handed tactics should be a last resort. Use them now and next week people will come back with bats, bottles, bricks and knives. Violence only begets more violence. |

They aren't normal folk. Was always going to happen as I’ve been saying for the last 10 days and I’m not talking about Tommy Robinson and his buddies I’m talking about everyday folk I speak with at football and other social media. You don’t share that view and that’s your prerogative. I’ll say it again that I genuinely fear for youngsters and generations to come |

So turns out the only people the cenotaph needed protecting from was the very people who claimed to want to protect it.
They're not the sharpest tools in the box these far right goons are they?
