       In the Holland Amsterdam case though , it was Anti semites attacking Jews . 

       They traveled to Amsterdam just to confront the Israelis 

     

    I'm not denying that the Amsterdam riot was anti-Jewish but your initial reply could be read as implying both the Belgian and Dutch riots were anti-Jewish which is not the case.

     

    In a similar vein to Amsterdam, there was no need for the Brugge "supporters" to go to Molenbeek. They also went there just for confrontation.

     

    There's no monopoly when it comes to political violence.

      Again, that wasn't a football riot . 

    That was Muslims/Sympathisers  attacking Jews , nothing to do with the football game .

      That was political violence , just like the Paris riot 

     

    In the Belgium case, it was far-right thugs attacking Muslims.

    Ray, you will never change my mind with your western propaganda, I am surprised you still regurgitate it when knowing full well it's Boll ox

     

    Frank, You are unwilling to accept facts.

     

    It is irrational to dismiss facts that don't fit your pre-ordained narrative as nothing more than Western propaganda and boll ox and refuse to change your mind.

    Are you the same Ray that is halfcast dude profile picture on phangan conscious page?

    (That was genuine question, not sure what is ok or racist anymore?

     

    No. 

     

    (Half-caste is now considered a derogatory phrase. Mixed race is an alternative).

    Ray ray, go away, you are just regurgitating the BBC media BS, I am on Putins side 100%, nothing you say will change that. Putin is a strong world leader, you are backing up weak politicians from the UK, stamer vs Putin, I bet Vlad for the win.

    USA orchestrated the 2014 coup. And antagonised the situation to where we are today 

     

    So facts are BS and they won't change your mind.

     

    I'll just leave that there for all to see.

    You can repeat the western propaganda machine as much as you want, it doesn't  make it true.

     

    Fact, noun: a thing that is known or proved to be true.

     

    The events which I listed took place. That is known and undeniable. They are therefore, by definition, facts.

     

    If you deny this you are, by definition, delusional.

     

    Delusional, adjective: characterized by or holding false beliefs or judgements about external reality that are held despite incontrovertible evidence to the contrary, typically as a symptom of a mental condition.

    What the CIA did or didn't do in Latin America in the 1980s is completely irrelevant to the events in Ukraine in 2014.

    No one in their right mind would welcome an escalation in hostilities but 

    that is a completely different topic. What is under discussion here are the events leading up to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014.

    Yes, I dispute all the western propaganda you wrote.

    RFK only yesterday spoke about the US coup and NATO expansion to Putins borders, and how the US provoked the war.

    do you think you know more than him when it comes to Ukraine? Do I believe someone that is in US government or someone on an expat forum that reads the bbc

     

    1. Yanukovych was elected on a pro-EU platform

     

    2. In 2014 80% of the Ukrainian public were in favour of closer ties with the EU

     

    3. The Ukrainian parliament had passed a bill approving the signing of the EU - Ukrainian Association Agreement

     

    4. Yanukovych pulled out of a ceremony where this Agreement would be signed 

     

    5. Members of  Yanukovych's own party voted to depose him as President

     

    6. The Maïdan protests took place following these events

     

    If you, RFK or anyone else denies that these events took place, then not only do you know less than me but you are living in an alternative universe.

     

    It's ok to admit that you got something wrong. What is not ok is to deny the facts in order to act as an apologist for a despot.

    As a Labour voter, I'm hugely disappointed by Starmer's leadership and the government in general...so far.  Particularly his pandering to Reform which will prove very counter-productive.  I can't see him resigning though, and it's fanciful to think there will be another election before 2029.  A lot can happen, and will.

     

    Thanks. My thoughts exactly. Imo you have summed up the thoughts of most Labour supporters.

    The US funneled 5 billion into Ukraine, the US orchestrated the coup, Victoria Nuland is on recorded telephone conversation discussing who they will put in power..

    The US ousted the democratically elected pro Russian leader and installed a pro western/ EU one

    Never let facts get in the way of a good Commie bashing. 

     

     

     

    Indeed, never let the facts get in the way of a good conspiracy story.

     

    Do you dispute that Yanukovych was elected on a pro-EU platform? Do you dispute that the Ukrainian public were overwhelming in favour of closer ties with the EU (>80% approval ratings)? Do you dispute that the Ukrainian parliament had passed a bill approving the signing of the EU - Ukrainian Association Agreement formally establishing economic and political ties between the parties? Do you dispute that despite Parliamentary approval and his own campaign promises, Yanukovych - under pressure from Moscow which had imposed restrictions on Ukrainian imports - unilaterally pulled out of a ceremony where this Agreement would be endorsed? Do you dispute that members of  Yanukovych's own party voted to replace him as President in light of these events? Do you dispute that the Maidan protests were as a result of these events?

     

    That is not opinion. That is fact. So If you do dispute any of that, then you are denying facts.

     

    So while the US may well have funneled 5 billion into Ukraine and Victoria Nuland may well have discussed who the US's favoured Presidential replacement would be, the US did not orchestrate a coup, oust a democratically elected pro Russian leader and install a pro-EU one. The Ukrainian people ousted a President who had done a complete volte face and replaced him with someone who would implement the will of over 80% of the electorate.

     

    Accept reality, take your heads out of the sand and stop acting as apologists for Putin.

    On January 6, 2021 ordinary US citizens took the streets and Capitol. However it was not accepted by US government.

    Why did these particular Ukrainian citizens have not waited for the next presidential election to choose a president who represented the real wish of all Ukrainian citizens?  Why have they decided it for all regions, including Crimea and Donbas?

    Your country most likely will not face anything good if your current government overthrown by coup.

     

    The analogy with the events in the US in January 2022 is a false one. That involved some US citizens refusing to accept the result of a free and fair election.

     

    Imo a better analogy is Brexit and the 2019 British General Election. Boris Johnson was elected on a platform to 'Get Brexit done' I.e. implement the UK's electorate's decision to leave the EU. If Johnson had decided instead not to leave the EU but instead forge closer ties with the EU, then I don't think Brexit supporters could have been blamed for taking to the streets (and I say that as a Brit who is strongly pro-EU).

    This is the same guy who had an HIV test recently as well as a gay billionaire sugar daddy showering him with gifts and the arsonists are all rent boys.  No one, and I mean no-one, in a committed stable straight monogamous married relationship has an HIV test.   I mean, what are the odds that this is all coincidental and its a politically motivated attack?  If the bookies took bets on this kind of thing I think the odds of there not being a "personal" connection would be quite astronomical.   

     

    Then it should be very long until reports in the conservative media outside of the UK start to appear.

    Is that a feeble attempt at an apology after this utter guff ?
     

     

    No misinformation 

     

    No disinformation 

     

    And very, very true.

     

    The latest Council election

     

    You think  it is going to get better across the 42 By-Election across the next 2 months 😀😀😀

     

    I apologise.

     

    No I don't think the next 42 by-elections will offer any respite for Labour. Nor do I think that even if they lose control of every one of those councils that Starmer will be ousted from power as a consequence.

     

    Come the first of November when - assuming there is no scandal - Starmer is still PM you can admit that you were wrong.

    The left wing press/media have turned on him.   The left have turned on him.  He has already lost the millionaires, the working class, the farmers, the pensioners, the greens, the small and medium sized businesses.  Their large majority is built on sand and polling suggests a wipeout even bigger than the Tories last time should an election be held tomorrow.  The only growth is in the number of illegal immigrants arriving and the amount spent on benefits for foreign nationals (which has now reached £1bn per month).  GDP per capita continues to decline which means everyone is getting poorer no matter what kind of minuscule GDP growth there is.

     

    There is dissatisfaction with the government's performance, both in the country as a whole and the Labour party in particular. That is undeniable. 

     

    However, that - and the fact that polls have Starmer/ Labour trailing in the polls - is almost completely irrelevant at this point in time. The government is not about to call a GE tomorrow.

     

    If things haven't improved by the second half of 2026, then Starmer's position may come under threat. Currently, imo he is safe.

    The real question is why on earth would a foreign power make the effort to do something that would oust such a weak, incompetent PM that weakens and diminishes the UK each day he is in office?  If an enemy is shooting themselves in the foot on such a regular basis then the opponent wouldn't take their gun away.   So the smart money would be on these rent boys that committed arson being known to him in a personal capacity.  

     

    Perhaps because of his support for Ukraine. Smart money will stay on the sidelines

    How about giving it a rest ?
     

    Labour finished the last round of by-election with 98 Councillors, having started with 285 Councillors

     

    That is a loss of 187 councillors. You do the maths, is about 68%.

     

    The info is freely available if you care to look, even the BBC has it.

     

    https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c39jedewxp8t

     

    Just admit it. You are either trolling, clueless or your name is Kier.

     

    I'll admit that I confused the figures for the May elections with the total number of councils in England but nevertheless my point holds.

     

    Unless there is a scandal, the chances of the Labour PLP or NEC ousting a PM, who delivered a 174-seat majority in parliament less than a year ago, on the back of some bad results in local council elections is negligible.

     

    Clueless? Yes that about sums it up if you believe that Starmer will no longer be PM in November (unless there is a scandal).

    I agree with your sentiments. The dying should never have started. That it did is down to one man and his supporters. That it won't stop is down to the same cabal.

    Most arson attacks in the UK are insurance jobs, gang related or personal vendettas.

     

    Most might be but most victims of arson aren't politicians.

    Three completely unrelated incidents which have no bearing on this case.

     

    You have clearly decided what are the reasons for this attack. I'll remain open-minded and see what comes out at the trial.

    Labour only  contested a small number of those by elections, and still lost 70% of their councillors in the contested seats.

     

    Only you know whether that is misinformation or disinformation. In any event, it is simply not true.

     

    Labour fielded candidates in over 95% of wards.

     

    Going into the election, Labour had 6 322 councillors. Afterwards it had 6 124, a decline of +/-3%.

    Another hammering like that will see him out the door, ousted by the NEC.

     

     

    The NEC won't welcome any losses but the idea that the loss of the likes of Basildon council will see them oust Starmer is wishful thinking on your part.

     

    If things don't improve the mutterings about Starmer's leadership will, no doubt, grow louder but - notwithstanding what might be revealed in the arson case - the chances of him going before this time next year are very slim.

    You missed out that they are also  Male Escorts.

     

    Nothing to see here. Move along now.

     

    How does a 21 & 25 year old know about a property that Starmer allegedly sold 20 years ago ?
     

    Arson / attempted arson is a personal attack, not a sting operation.

     

    Each and every arson attack is personal? You know that for a fact?

     

    If it was a sting operation organised by a foreign power, I'd imagine that they would have sufficient resources to do background research on Starmer, wouldn't you?

    The cabinet ? You appear to be pretty naive, his downfall will not come from the cabinet.

     

    There are about 42 by-election across June and July, suffer defeats like they did, as posted above and he will be gone.

     

    There were 1,641 by-elections in May. The results were not good for Labour but there was no pressure on Starmer to resign. However, you think that the results of 42 by-election results in the next 2 months will be enough to force Starmer from office? 

     

    And you call me naive😂
