  1. Well said. There really is a lot of Islamophobic nonsense being posted.
  2. None whatsoever. Even the right-wing press has given estimates between 100,000-150,000.
  3. As @Tug pointed out, the unrest after George Floyd's killing was race based and against the extra-judicial killing of black people. Not in any way comparable to the murder of Kirk.
  4. He may well describe himself as a "classical liberal" but a quick look at what he espouses certainly aligns with most right-wing views.
  5. I agree, but in the video he is clearly talking about the "Union Jack".
  6. At last, I can agree with you! The Thai government is very careful to label most of us "non-immigrants", no matter how long we may have lived here. That said, technically asylum seekers/refugees are not "immigrants" as they will, or should, return to their home country when they can.
  7. So you'd like the UK to copy Thailand and make it easier for immigration? Ok then, but it kind of defeats your anti-immigrant mindset.
  8. Really? You'd be happy for Thailand to adopt the UK policy of requiring all foreign spouses to pass 3 different language tests and a culture test, and for only the Thai partner's income to be taken into account to meet the financial requirements?
  9. I like Lammy but can't see him winning a Labour leadership election.
  10. That's unfair. I know many Tories who are not racist. However, I doubt the same could be said for Tommy Robinson and his followers or even Reform.
  11. And you're parroting the views of the extreme right. We'll just have to agree to disagree, which is the British way. 🇬🇧
  12. Nonsense. Britain is stronger for being a multi-cultural diverse society. There's nothing your beloved Tommy can do to change it, except maybe he could emigrate to Thailand? Deal with it.
  13. Not a single source has suggested that there were more than around 150,000 protestors - even the anti-Labour press like the Mail, Express and Torygraph! But I'm sure your count from watching it on TV is accurate 🤣
  14. He might be forced to resign if it turns out he lied to the Commons about Mandelson. But who would replace him? Andy Burnham needs to get himself elected to parliament pronto!
  15. Does K Bank issue a statement on demand and, if so, how much does it cost. Can it be obtained at any K Bank branch or only at the branch where the account was opened?
  16. Strange that this story isn't causing much outrage on this Forum! I wonder why? 🤔
  17. Well put, but unlikely to happen. The 'hate' is too ingrained.
  18. UK passport applications from Thailand are processed in the UK.
  19. Can anyone find an official source that gives a number of more than 110,00-150,000 protestors? Does that number include the anti-far-right protestors too?
  20. Who's "silencing" the far-right? They seem pretty vocal to me!
