I suspect he will be found guilty in the retrial as well. Too much evidence. What an idiot. All that money and power, he could have had rooms full of high class escorts prepared to do whatever he liked. I suspect he enjoyed the thrill of "getting away with it" and the power of forcing women to 'perform' for their roles. While I'm sure some of the women were prepared to give it up for the sake of their careers, it doesn't change the fact that he is a disgusting individual.

Or in the unlikely event he wins, after the election. It really makes a mockery of Democracy when the candidate clearly isn't fit to serve the term. They are simply wheeling him out because they believe he is their best chance of retaining the keys to power. And they have the nerve to call themselves the "Democrats" 😆. Mind you, when they also claim to be liberal and progressive, they may as well go all in and pretend to be democratic. In for a penny, in for a pound.

There is some truth to that. Which makes you wonder why leftist loons like Corbyn consider Hamas to be his friends. The two groups are certainly curious bedfellows, but bedfellows nonetheless. Perhaps it is their hatred of Jews that unites them? Or perhaps the left support intolerance in the name of diversity?

Not all people who object to Israel's response are anti-semites. But all anti-semites object to Israel's response. The world's oldest hatred takes very little watering for the seeds to sprout strong. Let's not pretend this anti Jewish sentiment started after October 7 2023.

Rednecks in disguise? Let's be serious for a moment, we all know who it is.

Could be the National Front in fancy dress I suppose.

Let's cut to the chase, it's mainly Muslims and the extreme left behind the "anti-Israel" (i.e. anti-semite) movement.

In response to October 7. If Hamas invaded NZ and killed/raped NZ hundreds/thousands kids at an Auckland music festival, would you object to your military reacting with force? Or do you only object when Jews do it?

This bike forum used to very good and very active. Lots of big bike riders, bike reviews, trip reports, banter etc. I think what happened was that a lot of the active posters left Thailand, one or two passed away, others got tired of hearing the "you must be mad to ride in Thailand" comments from non riders and some had issues with a particularly over zealous individual with 'the button'. So now we have what is left. Generally infrequent, boring talk about whether to buy a Click or a Wave.

Or an astute political analyst.

Looks "mostly peaceful" to me. A few idiots throwing drinks. Whoopdedoo. Compared to the BLM and Pro Palestine carnage this is completely insignificant. Obviously The Guardian will pop up and start talking about the "far right" etc. It's what they do.

I thought you said the general election was going to be in May? 😃

Indeed. To anyone who knows anything about Khan's background and nature, it is of little surprise that the Met Police are allowing Pro Palestine/Anti Israel marches while threatening to arrest Jews and Patriots.

There was only a police cordon because of who they were. Of course. The two are not mutually exclusive, Captain Obvious. Eveyone knows that. Nobody cares.

No surprise. Universities are full of these types of leftist loons, trying to corrupt young, impressionable students. I wonder if these "places of learning" should start carrying health warnings.

I wonder how these students would feel had they attended the music festival on October 7th? They probably wouldn't feel anything, as they would have been slaughtered along with the Israeli youngsters.

So presumably you think Yousaf is a hater? Or are Muslim Scottish nationalists excluded?

They should have called for Jihad and the elimination of Israel. The police would have cheered them on. Like the Jewish guy, it seems these guys were being "openly white" and "openly English". More evidence of 2 tiered policing from Khan's army of bully boys.

Living in the past. It's 2024. It bears no resemblence to the 60's or whenever you were there.

Totally agree. Somehow they have made anti-semitism fashionable. Incredibly dangerous.

Silly kids. Influenced by their extremist left wing lecturers no doubt. Pro-Palestine/Anti-Israel/Anti-Zionist have become euphemisms for anti-semitism. It's plain for all the see. The "anti-racist" leftists are once again proving themselves to be what they claim you are.

I strongly suspect you're not sure of many things. Well, I'm clearly dealing with an expert here.😃 Quite the insight. Did you come up with that yourself?

I lived in London for 3 years. Saw plenty of crime first hand including a stabbing. So I know a little bit about it. It was much safer back then though... There are safe parts and dangerous parts. Like I said, the Libs tend to live in the safe parts and pontificate about their virtue. They wouldn't be seen dead (or maybe they would!) in the crime hotspots like Southwark where knife crime is rampant. They're safely tucked away in their trendy postcode. Of course, once you average all the boroughs out the stats look OK, but you know stats can be manipulated to prove almost anything. London is a dangerous place, but I guess you don't go further than your chum's champagne tasting party in Islington...

OK. https://www.wsj.com/articles/climate-activists-disasters-fire-storms-deaths-change-cop26-glasgow-global-warming-11635973538 Feel free to stock up on life vests though...

Sounds like it's going the way of London i.e. rampant crime with a smattering of Progressives avoiding it all as they brag about their post codes from their ivory towers, safely tucked away from the reality that their flawed ideology has created.
