We criminalised his right of peaceful protest then when he continued to peacefully protest we locked him up.

Come on @Embattle. Which bits of that statement are factually incorrect?

I, like many, don't agree with your version of peaceful protest as stated in numerous posts.

In the end the government brings in specific laws, with the support of the majority, that change what we can and can't do.

You can whinge all you want, doesn't change the fact he is going to spend time in prison for ignoring the multiple warnings he was given.

Bullshit. Peaceful protest is non-violent protest.

The government has introduced new law to restrict what types of non-violent protest are now allowed. Whether you like it or not - that's a lessening of our historical rights.

Feel free to go and protest about it if you like, do it blocking a road and you'll be arrested as well.

I don't believe in peaceful protest as a useful tool for radical social change.

While i feel he could have had more impact just taking whatever punishment doled out for protesting, now narrative is all about the avoiding courts and shit rather than the plain reality, he was arrested for a peaceful protest that inconvenienced a few people

I don't even know how they have the gall to say shit like this. There's only so much you can try to link to the Russian invasion and striking workers isn't on the list.

Nurses must drop pay demands to ‘send clear message to Putin’, cabinet minister says

‘This is a time to come together and to send a very clear message to Mr Putin that we’re not going to be divided in this way,’ says Nadhim Zahawi

I think it's darker than that; I think they're trying to stoke up a bit of public resentment against those asking for pay rises. Good luck trying to pit the general public against nurses though, that's only going to go one way.

They are singing to the right wing idiots. It will backfire. We are at the point where the loons are basically in National Front territory. Even the Tories won't go that far.

If you support nurses you're a Putin sympathizer? :D sounds a bit desperate

Cold War innit.

Cold War was great for convincing people that anything against the state or capitalism was communism.

Its what we're seeing here.

Unfortunately I don't agree with others here though, I think it'll work pretty well.

They're kicking it into Labour's court so Labour take the hatred when (if) they do something.

Labour come in - "hey farmers, spend money so you're not pouring cow shit into rivers" - that'll go down like a lead balloon around here. They can't afford to do it and then they'll vote Tory next time.

One thing we could do pretty easily, I would have thought, is ban the use of spreading wet muck onto fields. We're about the only country in Europe that does it. Would straight away reduce ammonia emissions.

Many of the farms I see (I ride mostly through rural areas) don't treat their fields very well. Massive gaps in hedgerows, bits of scruffy land filled with junk the farmer will "get around one day" to fixing, knackered gates, etc. And the ones that illegally block footpaths, like this cunt (he plows the footpath, which you're not allowed to do, and has blocked the other end with thorny bushes). And then there are the farmers who thrash hedgerows...

Migrants housed in hotels are criticising schools' Ofsted ratings, Tory MP suggests

Jonathan Gullis accuses some migrants of 'taking advantage of our system' and says 'it would be good to enact' the Rwanda migrant plan
www.telegraph.co.uk www.telegraph.co.uk

No you tory wanker they're coming here and realising our education system isn't actually what the world thinks it is, and it's completely broken due to having you wankers in power for 13 fucking years.

Cunt. Send him to Rwanda.

This is why the Tories wanna get rid of em, because they're terrified they'll wake up the populace to what is happening in their country.

The populace are awake @Gwadien, but don't know what to do - just like the politicians.

Have a look at that interview above - give it five minutes from where I said if you cba to listen to it all.

I have a new MP as of today. It was always going to go Labour, they're very strong in Trafford, but I'm very glad to see the Greens come third. I've voted Green the last few elections, I think Labour are doing an ok job but still aren't seeing the big picture. They declared a climate emergency a few years ago, but are scared of rocking the boat.


The new guy is a former councillor and a good speaker, so it'll be interesting to see how quickly he climbs the ladder. He absolutely will.

Also, the Rethink GM loonies absolutely loathe him and can't understand why nobody is voting for the gammon cranks they support.
