Same happening in the Rochdale election today where Gaza is apparently more important than Rochdale

Looking at the main troublemaker Jenny Shirley's Facebook page, it seems she's a professional stirrer with too much time on her hands who loves going on demos of all sorts of stuff.

The protesters are getting in anywhere they can be heard.. 
They are multiplying as we speak..
 Their words are spoken loud and clear and spoken without any fear of being  stopped or corrected.. 
... and they feel safe  because they fear no other  ...

In a way, I can understand (but not condone) muslims pushing for control and shouting down their opponents, but why white British people?

I can only assume that they are mostly young (and not so young) brainwashed individuals.
The 'not so young' probably because we have lacked common sense as a nation for decades now.

All part of being part of something bigger than themselves as individuals.   Add in media coverage and the associated 15mins of fame.  Think that explains much of it, especially for the serial protesters.

It's quite astounding 
Rochdale is a microcosm of socialism gone wrong .
 Despite decades of multicultural immigration and welfare, it remains one of the poorest areas in Britain. 
And why the citizens of Rochdale have this intense interesting in a regional conflict 2,000 miles away is a complete mystery.

I believe that may well be the nub of the matter.

In other news, Mr Netanyahoo demands an end to socialist rule in Chorley.

Let us hope he doesn't order indiscriminant bombing of the region, although to be fair, the locals did elect the council and probably deserve it.

I have a close friend in Chorley, a place I knew well once when it was a charming Lancashire Market Town, back in the late seventies. He says a whole belt of places in the county are now densely populated by Muslims and radically changed therefore. He continued "it started 50 years ago in such places as Blackburn and has consolidated and moved West." He is going to sell up and move - but not sure where, a big change at 79 but as he says "why not, I'm on my own now, no children as you know and I just dread having to venture out". Going to downsize significantly and may join other friends on Alderney to ensure some security from what has happened to Chorley ...

Same reason I (and Marge) moved out of Bradford, the town of my birth.

I'm coming to England in April and one place I won't visit is 'Ilford' (the town of my birth), my Parents and my late brother are buried nearby in the family plot at 'Barkingside' about 4 miles from the Town Centre. I'll place my flowers and quickly return to Dunmow, via Abridge and Ongar without visiting anything further.

I retain the memory of a very happy childhood and reject the drastic change, like Bradford it's gone through into the sad and tatty place it's become today.

How long ago was that Rivers of Blood speech?

It's not as if we were unaware of the possibility.

The late Mr Powell made that speech in 1968 and that was about the influx of West Indians to the midland towns, a few years before the Asian refugees arrived from Africa. This was still quite some time before the moslem hordes arrived, for example the London Central Mosque opened in 1977.

I have now read this attachment and find it very interesting, although I am pretty much already aware of what has happened since.
This was in 1968, the year in which I first began work.
As we probably all know, the first invaders were the West Indians and, in some particular places, they soon increased in number resulting in people like the old lady mentioned personally giving up all hope.

Then came the 'Stanis' (first four letters deleted as they are now seen as racist).
This was what first influenced the area in which we lived then, rather than West Indians.  My dad had an off-licence grocery shop.  On the next corner opened a small shop run by Stanis.  At the time, we were the only people in the area who had a telephone.  Consequently, the owners of the new shop asked nicely whether they could use our phone to make some orders.  Of course, my dad couldn't know what they were saying as they prattled on rapidly in their own language.  We found out later that they were ordering in everything which we sold.
Along with this came a rapid influx of more Stanis and, of course, as they took over my dad found a discernible lack of customers.  Not long afterward, we necessarily moved out.

Now,of course, we are facing even greater numbers of immigrants from... well, we don't know where most of them come from because they lose any papers and won't admit to their origin; simply claiming that they cannot go back because 'it is dangerous'.

Yes, of course, Enoch was absolutely correct in what he said, what he warned, all those years ago.
Even then, the word 'racist' was bandied about and the loss of free speech has developed further since.
The problem began, probably, because we had no idea how things would develop.  Many thought it quite harmless, and I'm sure some believed it would improve our traditional British culture.

I see no doubt today, absolutely no doubt, that the dangers are perfectly clear.
The difference now is that, as numbers have already increased beyond any reason, anyone supposedly in power in this country is probably afraid of offering any criticism or suggestion of what we really should now do.  I'm afraid I cannot now see any real solution, even though non-white people are (according to the news) still not a majority in the country as a whole.

If only people had listened to Enoch all those years ago.  Too late now!
