Personally I think it more appropriate they pay their respects in the capitals of the countries they are head of. It's what Devolution is all about. They were there. I checked. On the broader front. Here's my sixpenceworth on yesterday's events. Firstly, there were no riots. A bit of pushing and shoving. But everybody was completely silent at 11 o' clock. I don't believe the pushers and shovers were 'far right'. They just came for a bit of a piss up and a bit of naughty fun. There might have been some EDL posters or whatever. Big deal. They were not a threat to the march or the gravity of the ceremony. Nor were the odd nutjobs shouting Isalmic crap. Secondly Braverman doesn't seem to understand the british constitution. She does not have the power to tell the police whether to allow a march. Its not her responsibility. Tory heavyweights like Heseltine and Clarke have been shaking their heads in disbelief at her antics. In particular calling the march which was for a ceasefire in Gaza " a hate march" and the protesters as "Hamas sympathisers". That's bollocks. She is an agitator, totally unhinged, always provoking trouble and showing the tories in a negative light. Describing tent dwelling as a lifestyle choice ffs. That behaviour is not within the job description of a home secretary. Far from it. She's a liability not just for the tories but for the rest of us as well. She's mad if she thinks she will get sacked and return as leader of the tory party if that is her plan. Sooner she is gone the better for the country.

I disagree there mate, For some people a life on the streets is a choice, Others are not actually on the streets but just pretend to be. This is from first hand experience not something i have read somewhere. What is Devolution? Nothing more than people pretending there running there country but using the Money from another to do it. Why should a Protest march of any kind have been allowed on that Sacred weekend of Remembrance ?. The Met police are independent from the government when it comes to Policing in London but are responsible to the Mayor of London, Why was it allowed! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You still have not enlighten us on the “what about Israel in all of this” ? Question So, I’ll ask a different question….why should they offer a cease fire when Hamas have not released the hostages ?

No change there. I think the march went well and the police were spot on in their initial decision to allow it. I dont believe a single individual disrespected the cenotaph or the occasion. Its the way democracy works. No sane person would want to be in a tent this time of year surely? Scotland would be one of the richest countries in Europe if it kept its own oil. Zzzzzzz.

I'm just an old geezer with an opinion formed on what the news outlets filter out to us. I've read from several sources Israel has pulled out of negotiations. Maybe your sources tell you a different story? Edited November 12, 2023 by jukel123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But Scotland does not own its own oil Zzzzzzzzzzz, There are plenty of insane people for one reason or another, or in fact multiple reasons who choose to do so, Others just spend the night because there with mates or to pissed or drugged up to return to there council accommodation, again facts that i have seen not read. Take the local canals, they are now full of barges that look like they have been found adrift moored every where, most are full of the same type of people, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
