BECAUSE THE STATE DOESNT AGREE AND THE STATE DICTATING WHAT TEENAGERS CAN HAVE ON THEIR WALLS IS ANTI-FASCIST AND PRO FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

If you want to talk about the 'stirrings of fascism', see how many of these the current government can tick off... 8 or 9? More?

So the person widely rumoured to be plotting Johnson's downfall with Cummings then.

It's a joke. Like when opposition leaders are constantly getting arrested on corruption charges. I've got little doubt that the ruling is correct, but It's just amazing how all those other contracts were fine but this one happens to be one they pick out as being unlawful.

I don't think it is just that which is the issue. It's that it starts from there and then snowballs further.

I think it is incredible that those type of people go on about 'the stirrings of fascism', yet what they end up doing is usually just that any way.

He'll be able to afford it. His dad's a top US lawyer.

Bit surprised he wasn't waving a confederate flag though.

Fascism would insist that they display a picture of the head of state. This is the complete opposite of that. This is an act of freedom being carried out by a consensus. Or democracy as it’s also known.

Labour supporters complete inability to understand what actually matters in electoral politics which leads to us tearing out hair out at seemingly mad voting decisions, handily expressed as the Cons getting a polling bump off the back of another corruption/racism/weird tantrum over 18 year olds not being sufficiently subservient to the Queen scandal.

ah ok. I didn’t see any relevance to politics, just a stupid comment alleging that some 18 yr olds taking a poster down was facism

The point ESB is making I think is that people care about students not taking down pictures of the Queen and the woke left will keep losing until they realise that fact.

It’s a running meme that regardless of what anyone does or how stupidly they govern the Tories gain in the polls

Did you see how people voted Tory in the by election because Labour forced cuts on the local NHS. It didn’t, the cuts were Tory government austerity cuts but hey…. Indoctrination. What are you going to do.

How is there even a take? It’s barely news worthy, but that didn’t stop Williamson spieling out some tosh and Dan Wootton sending out some drivel too.
