Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Abbott has been defending the actions of rioters in London as understandable.

She needs locking up with them.

Interesting that the local black population in Dalston are claiming white people moving in are colonising the area. They have been ironically saying that the white people should go back where they came from such as Exeter.

My family lived there 150 years ago.

So are you saying that your lot left early, if so where did they move to?

Where he is now Stan. I wonder where the present Dalston black population were 150 years ago. Not Essex you can be sure. The world is topsy turvy and our politicians don't have the backbone to stand up for middle Britain any more.

Oh dear...



DAN HODGES: Jeremy Corbyn may have secured 40% of the election vote but he's taking the constituences who wanted him for granted

If you were one of the 12 million people who turned out to support Labour in the Election, I have some bad news for you. There’s no gentle way to break this, so I’m just going to come out with it. Jeremy Corbyn thinks you’re a mug.

Political analysts are still struggling to properly assess how Corbyn’s Labour managed to secure 40 per cent of the national vote. But a major part of the result was his marshalling of the following disparate constituencies – students, Remainers, Labour pragmatists and ABC1s.

Remove them, and you hand May her misplaced 100-plus majority. Yet since the Election – for reasons best known to himself – Labour’s leader has embarked on a strategy of either taking these constituencies for granted, or treating them with outright contempt.

First there was the admission he actually had no plans to act on historic student debt. This was followed by a doubling down on hard Brexit. Then he bowled up to Glastonbury and boasted to Michael Eavis how he had pulled the wool over the moderates’ eyes on Trident.


Having milked the applause of the adoring crowds, he promptly trotted back down to London and the Andrew Marr Show, where he unveiled his new Enoch Powell tribute act, railing against ‘the wholesale importation of underpaid workers from Central Europe in order to destroy conditions, particularly in the construction industry’.

And then came this week’s assault on middle-England, a demographic group whose support for his party rocketed a full 12 points since 2015.

This last slap-down came courtesy of a video distributed by Momentum, Corbyn’s personal political militia. It portrays the British middle-class as arrogant, entitled and venal. It mocks their suggestion it is possible to secure social advance through hard-work, thrift and fiscal responsibility. And, unwittingly, it gives a graphic insight into what the Labour leader really thinks of those who lent him their votes on June 8.

It’s not uncommon for political leaders to rub their opponents’ noses in their success. But this is the first occasion in political history when someone who has lost an election has rubbed his supporters noses in his own failure.

Of course, a key factor in this abasement strategy is that Corbyn doesn’t think he did lose. As a result, he feels no need to learn any lessons, or align messages to match the new political reality. The Cult of Corbynism will be enough.

This arrogance was neatly framed during the student debt farrago. As his pledge ‘I will deal with it’ was gradually disowned by his colleagues, Corbyn’s team frantically cast around for ways to prevent the man of iron principle morphing into the Nick Clegg of the Left. In the end, ideas spent, they fell back on ‘it doesn’t matter. The students aren’t ever going to vote Tory’.

Whoever wrote that piece of vile accusations has to be one warped sicko. Why bother to cut and paste that trash Tanker?

I think we should at least congratulate Tanker for restricting his input to only the one post this time, well done Tanks keep it up or better still..

Our Governments to date have consistently stood up for the top 5%'ish never mind anyone else.

H/S hasn't answered yet IT.

Some moved to other parts of London and some stayed in the area to this day. It is certainly not a black area or a white area.

Lets all read what the Mail on Sunday says shall we..or maybe not.

Abbott has been defending the actions of rioters in London as understandable.

She needs locking up with them.

Dil Don’t call them rioters. That dismisses the anger over Rashan Charles’s death.

Is that the answer then Stan as usual just smash the place up ?

The disturbances in north-east London are a reflection of longstanding frustration over police conduct towards people of colour.

So just smash the place up then with Diane Abbott's blessing .

Concerns about the mistreatment of people of colour by police in the UK are legitimate. The deaths of Oluwashijibomi Lapite in 1994, Mark Duggan in 2011, Edson Frederico Da Costa last month and Rashan Charles last weekend, to name just a few examples, show the severity of the problem. In all of these cases, the individuals died following police contact and all were black.

Bunch of gobshites in balaclavas. The "police conduct" is fully warranted by their behaviour or lack of.

You should read the case thoroughly about Duggan ,you may change your mind , or after seeing what you write on here you probably wouldn't.

The events preceding Charles’s death, as he was being chased and apprehended by police in a newsagents in Dalston in north-east London, were captured on CCTV and the resulting images are deeply disturbing. Peaceful protests in response to the death boiled over into aggression, with people blocking roads and setting refuse alight – against, it should be said, the wishes of the dead man’s family. With various individuals dismissing protesters as rioters and thugs, it is important to remember the lessons of history.

The first guy in 1994 looks like a police problem. The others were criminals. Two of them drug dealers who swallowed some drugs

There is CCTV of Charles swallowing something.

They are rioters and thugs. There are legitimate avenues for complaint. Burning cars and throwing petrol bombs at police are not acceptable. Rioters should be imprisoned for a few years

The PCC investigates all these cases but, like the referendum, the lefties only accept the result it wants. Forget the facts, let's go with our prejudices against the decent people in our society. The fact is that a proportion of the black population use racism as an excuse to break the law.
