Oh those other protestors who were nowhere near the coronation.

 

So the police now get to arrest people for protesting where their protest might be seen.

 

Oh, and so you now accept that the support of the British people is clearly not unanimous,

Location is irrelevant. If the police had reason to believe they were going to glue their face to one of the horses or the carriage then it would be reasonable to arrest them before they arrived at the location. If the police had reason to suspect they had a bomb should they refuse to arrest them because they are 'nowhere near' the coronation? 

Where did I say support is unanimous? Oh that's right, I didn't, it was all in your imagination. ???? 

Of course there are always going to be the pink haired, rainbow sock wearing attention seekers screaming obscenities but thankfully it did not detract from a wonderful occasion.

Long Live the King.

Seems they allowed protests that were not causing a nuisance.

From your link...

Not my business - I would prefer he took the more principled stand of Adam Price, but nothing I can do about it. 

You really shouldn't expect a principled stance from members of the SNP.

Hamza Yusuf is a Republican but he was hardly going to miss an event like this based on minor things like principles.

Protestors who had already notified their protest to the Met and obtained formal approval were arrested before being able to participate in their democratic right to protest.

I'm guessing the vocal minority, the Pink haired brigade were causing a public nuisance again. 

Nobody likes a party pooper. 

Hope they didn't spend too long in the cells.

That is hardly the most flattering of photos though - she looks positively sneering and supercilious in it.

I'd call it a gracious smile on a serious occasion. 

What was the expression? Of that's right...

And suddenly there was a battle for top 4.

I still think Utd will get that 4th place. Liverpool are running out of games and Utd have quite an easy run in against some poor sides. Terrible performance against West Ham though. Almost ten years since they sacked Moyes and you have to wonder what progress has been made.

All official now. What a great occasion. Implemented perfectly. Wonderfully British. Who'd want to swap that for a President like Macron? Especially when William is the next in line.

Did I miss the thread about it here on the World News Forum on Aseannow?

Do you mean the baying crowd yelling at the police officers that they were killing the guy on the ground? I doubt the crowd would have shouted quite as much if these guys weren't in the process of murdering someone in cold blood. Should they have stood back quietly and let it happen?

Guilty as charged.

I suspect if he had allowed the baying crowd to advance on the officers then there would have more fatalities, possibly the officers and possibly people in the crowds. He was in an impossible position. Damned if he did and damned if he didn't.

I tend to read the posts of regular contributors ‘in the whole’, it helps with spotting patterns in their thinking.

 

The Venn diagram of certain views, frequently expressed by some, approaches that of a unitary circle.

 

If I might give some examples:

 

People who accept the anthropomorphic climate change thesis, also tend to be pro-vaccine, pro-choice, pro-immigration, anti-trickledown economics, pro-LGBTQ rights.

 

When it comes to some other issues, for instance around the examples you have chosen as the basis of your argument, a whole different ‘unitary circle’ reveals itself.

 

 

In other words, no evidence of anything.

You've got nothing.

Don’t worry Jonny you can buy some cartoon nfts of your favorite hero lol ???? personally I’m going to miss the late night talk shows I always start my morning with them for laughs then the news helps me cope lol ???? 

Yes I can't say Aquaman/The Avengers, or Cuties is really my type of thing.

More of a Tarantino, Lynch, Kubrick, Scorsese fan.

Another good example of why countries need to protect their borders and manage illegal immigration properly.

This luvvy duvvy approach of welcoming everyone with open arms (or not managing illegals effectively) is proving a complete disaster in many countries, the UK being the most obvious example.

If the race of the person being portrayed has no bearing on their life story then I don’t care who plays who.

 

But examples you chose, MLK and Mohammed Ali are evidently race specific historical characters.

 

That you chose these in juxtaposition to Anne Boleyn reveals a level of unbelievable ignorance.

 

I myself think it wasn’t ignorance but that other thing that causes some folk to get rather irrational and irate over matters of race.

 

 

 

What other thing? I hope you are not implying what you seem to be implying. If you think it then say it, but you better have some evidence to back it up.

          So why was it published in the first place???? An accident? Somebody just sneaked it in under the editors nose? , Anybody been disciplined? of course not.

              It totally reflects their editorial standards, it was authorised and approved at the highest level,  it was put out there deliberately to advertise  exactly what they stand for. Of course they new they would have to pull it eventually , but by the time they decided to remove it  with the usual meaningless and insincere apology, they had achieved their objective.  It cannot be "unseen".

              A bit like when a barrister lets slip a piece of inadmissible evidence and the judge instructs the jury to disregard it, they can never truly do that.

               Its akin to a journalistic intentional professional foul and they will have no regrets whatsoever

 

I wouldn't expect any better from The Guardian.

Anti-Semitism is rife in left wing politics and left wing media alike. Disgraceful.
