Sunak once again demonstrates he’s weak, indecisive and dithering. The election can’t come soon enough.

It’s a twist that ignores the well publicized calls to end the even better publicized killing of civilians.

Well that’s one twist on reality.

But I’m not the one pulling numbers out of unmentionable places.

Another baseless accusation and a slur Jonny. I have never denied antisemitism exists anywhere. I don’t label tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of demonstrators anti-semites on the basis of imagined numbers amongst them who might be anti-semites. Just as I don’t argue for the restriction of fundamental democratic rights to peaceful protest because a minority that includes counter protestors might engage in non peaceful protest. So once again Jonny, away with you and your slur.

Are we going to argue about estimates for a demonstration that hasn’t yet happened? It seems lots of estimates are being made and more than a few blind and baseless guesses.

That’s what Chomper calls you pulling numbers out of a place we won’t talk about.

“Thank God the USA has the 2nd Amendment” So that the people calling to kill Jews can have guns? Perhaps you should be more thankful for the first amendment. Regardless, these demonstrations are taking place in the UK.

Thanks for the reminder of the long and proud history of public protest in the UK. The right to peaceful protest is a cornerstone of British democracy, very rightly defended and often used to positive effect.

Justice is coming Donny. Face it as soon as you can while you still have a chance that you might know what’s going on around you.

The demonstration organizers are now predicting attendance to be as high as 500,000, which would make this one of the largest political demonstrations ever in the UK: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/10/pro-palestine-march-will-be-one-of-uks-biggest-ever-protests-organisers-predict

The ‘Free Palestine Movement’ is not active in the UK. From the Wikipedia article you linked: “Active regionsPalestine, Syria, Lebanon”

No they aren’t. You’ve been over imbibing the Bravermans.

Thanks for the laugh. Now provide a quotation from me that substantiates your claims. Any ‘river to the sea’ quotes from me to share James?

Protesting to end killings in a war killing hundreds of civilians a day. Where’s the problem? Seems especially fitting for Armistice Day.

I’m not the subject of the thread.

Hardly an attempt at deflection when the rightwing authoritarians amongst us are attempting to deny people the right to peaceful protest on the basis of accusations of criminality, anti semitism and violence.

Same answer to you. I support the right to peaceful protest and the Police arresting people who break the law. I also think demonstrating to end the killing in the Hamas Israel war on Armistice Day is rather a fitting memorial. Would you like to have a go at answering this question? The projection is for 70,000 people to attend. How many of the 70,000 need to break the law before you brand all 70,000 as law breakers?

There are many ways to avoid violence, one being Ministers of State not employing inflammatory language and dog whistling to the extremists who have a long history of violence. I support the right to peaceful protest and the Police arresting people who break the law. I also think demonstrating to end the killing in the Hamas Israel war on Armistice Day is rather a fitting memorial.

I the reason it’s being allowed to go ahead is because there exists in the UK a right to peaceful protest.

I’ll ask you the same question I’ve asked other opponents of the right to peaceful protest: The projection is for 70,000 people to attend. How many of those attending need to call for the ‘destruction of Israel’ before you brand all 70,000 as having ‘called for the destruction of Israel’? How many of the 70,000 need to break the law before brand all 70,000 as law breakers?

No. Neither am receiving my thoughts on the matter from Braverman’s dog whistling.

Given the protest hasn’t yet happened, do you have a Time Machine?

You are confusing denying people the right to peaceful protest with the duties of the police.

I’m not sure who the police will arrest or if they will arrest anyone. Neither are you.
