Anything more than a laptop is taking the mickey.

Wars can be dangerous places for DEI pearl clutching leftist journos like the BBC employs. They're safer in their Islington echo chambers. Their "reporting" is based on ideology not what is happening on the ground so its no loss. You can always read The Guardian instead.

I already clarified on this very thread. Read it again.

Much as it would have been interesting, I didn't meet any pro illegal immigrant, pro grooming gangs, pro men in womens sport/jails, pro Hamas communists like yourself. Perhaps I was going to the wrong pubs? Pray tell, where can I meet your ilk in Witney? Is there an Antifa club down one of those dark alleys?

Thanks for correcting your original mistake. While that is absolutely fascinating, is there any relevance to the current thread? Did anyone on the forum state that it was?

Identical? 😃 Hardly. Most of them were quite a bit to the right of my own views.

The idea of you socializing with strangers in the real world is certainly one of fiction. 😃

Fascinating.

I know you find the idea of talking to real people in the real world strange, but some of us actually do it. Like I said, my friend is a local. She bumps into someone she knows, introduces them and you start talking. Their mate shows up, they know the pub's locals. 6 pints later you're chatting to loads of them. It's called being social. Best you stick to your anonymous identity behind a keyboard methinks. 😃

I suspect random people in pubs avoid talking to you 😃.

Yep. Small pubs over there you often end up chatting to pretty much everyone in there by the end of the night. Especially if you are with someone from the area who inevitably knows someone in there. Well, unless you look like a weirdo of course, like the individual in the post above mine. Then it might seem impossible.

60 people? A vocal minority of self righteous idiots one suspects. I was in that neck of the woods last year (Witney) and pretty much everyone I spoke to in local pubs etc. was very right wing, anti immigration, anti Labour, Pro Reform. These were just random people I bumped into while keeping my own opinions to myself. Some of them were so right wing that even I was taken aback. And not one of them was remotely worried about speaking their mind about it. 😃 The feelings are very strong out there and not against the policies of the GOP.

They often use those labels. Just not for Hamas.

I'd rather leave the illegal immigrants in there and have the festival as normal. Let them mix with Penelope and Cecilia from Little Gaddesden for a weekend. That might re-adjust a few attitudes of the #refugeeswelcome crew. Then again, if they can't see the irony in putting the poster below on the Glastonbury security fence they might be beyond help.

How about their insistence on referring to Hamas as "freedom fighters" for years?

More evidence that brutal terrorism has indeed worked. Ergo, it will be used again in the future as and when required. Well done Anthony. Well done Keir. Well done Mark. Bravo.

More lies. https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2025/07/24/what-to-know-about-ghislaine-maxwells-alleged-perjury-as-she-speaks-with-doj-today-about-epstein/

Yeah I forgot Lammy, Cooper, Reeves, Milliband, Nandy. What a shower.😃 What were the British voters thinking? Talk about act in haste, repent at leisure.

Can't really blame them for blocking the BBC after they were caught paying the family of senior Hamas figures. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14465533/Hamas-ministers-family-paid-sos-role-BBC.html Not to mention the completely biased coverage of the conflict.

When Katie Price is able to take the moral high ground whilst out-witting you, it is indeed a bad day. Has there ever been a more pathetic duo as PM and Deputy PM than Starmer and Raynor? The depths we have sunk to.

Not if you leave them in the mosque. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1932225/uk-riots-stoke-police-mosque

More hot air from the pathetic EU. All mouth and no trousers.

Another Brit hating rant.

Indeed. 1492 was a significant date. But I certainly love me some Paella when I visit my sister's villa near Valencia. The other poster disappeared when I asked him for an example of an anti Muslim rant I had made. I will ask you the same question and look forward to the same result. 😃
