Operation Raise the Flags

[Alex]

London last night, it was on X so no confirmation, just the video clip.  Sadiq will blow a fuse.

I like that and the comments

Any idea what this is about?



Looks like a Free Speech protest. Presumably that prove your age rubbish they introduced recently.

A Tommy Robinson march?

[klondike]

I think it's a stage thing with various speakers organised by TR but that's only from a brief scan of the article. I haven't bought a train ticket.

[Alex]

It's already started, this lot arranging coaches from Manchester.   Perhaps they have inside info about train disruptions ?

[Dextrous63]

Hmm.  Will there be riots?  Seems that the gauntlets are being laid down.

[klondike]

They'll likely ban it. TR will still show up followed by getting banged up again.

Not if Vlad acts as his bodyguard.

[Alex]

There weren't any riots last time TR organised one of these marches, as for him getting banged up, the 'authorities' like to bang him up prior to the march date.

Robinson getting 'Banged up' just draws attention to the fact that we are not a FREE country.. 
I think people are beginning to realise this.. and that he is discriminated against..

[Dextrous63]

The more that the powers that be try to gag him, the more inquisitive people will become.  They're shooting themselves in the foot with this, imho.

I sincerely hope so.  In fact, I really hope that the country turns on Labour in the near future, because the longer they stay in power and the more illegals they can drag into the country, the more additional Labour voters they will acquire. 

[klondike]

You can't just blame Labour. It was exactly the same with their predecessors. I won't say Tories because it has been a very long time since a Tory party was in power. The last time was pre Blair.

I said the same thing 5mins before you.... but worded it differently..

I win... I said it first..

" we are not a FREE country." - can you please explain  to me  what you understand by a FREE country - thank you. 
When I was younger and fitter I travelled a lot  and my opinion is that compared to other countries we can be happy that we have the chance of living in Europe. I first realised this when I was in China. Have you ever thought about the reasons why immmigrants prefer Europe to  Russia and China? Before the fall of the wall my Hungarian relatives always dreamed of living in a country like ours where you can express your opinion without having to fear that you are arrested. 
It's true there's room for improvement for our government and yours, but if you are honest would you like to change placces with your prime minister?
