Latest Moan From You and Me 2024

Yes, its not surprising at all, but they are targeting the wrong group.

They should be targeting their anger at the super rich. Those who purposefully hoard as much land as possible and pay as little tax as possible. And leave less for everyone else.

Not people fleeing oppression, starvation, torture and murder by savage regimes across the world.

 

I agree he has the tone all wrong on this. I suspect he thinks saying anything nuanced will be seen as weak, but there are quite a lot of things going on simultaneously here, and unless the different causes are teased out and addressed, tensions will implode regularly.

 

Last words, before it's too late.

I think it's already too late.

 

I'm sure their turn will come!!

 

Religion, biggest problem ever invented.

 

I hear that some police dogs have been suspended from duty for assult
To much red tape!!

 

Meanwhile, protests in Bangladesh have seen the gov fall ... and the BBC is wholly on the side of the masses, calling it "people power". It seems it's fine for some countries to have unrest.

 

My thinking is they should not use dogs or horses, they have all kind of vehicles, and water cannons should be used.
But no, they drag horses and dogs into it, the dogs appear to be half strangled most of the time and horses get all kinds of nasty things done to them.

About time they just sorted it out, with both sides, instead of pussy footing around.

 

If, as you say, there's a majority of the population with opinions which are not being taken seriously, @Fat Controller , but you don't agree with violent demonstration, how would you suggest they make their voices heard?

 

Well, @ViewAhead ... among other things the Bangladeshi government closed down the Internet and social media, and imposed a shoot-on-sight curfew which killed between 300 and 500 people, including children. Perhaps Bangladeshis had enough reason to riot and overthrow their government.

From what I can gather, the majority of people rioting in the UK have been incited to do so by misinformation on X and similar sites, many were not from the local area, were drunk, and when asked what they were rioting about, didn't have a coherent answer. "Enough is enough" doesn't indicate to me someone who's really got an idea about the true level of immigration.
