Bertha, their likes have been in our midst for generations. Often in white skins demeaning people of colour, and likely using the underground too.

Yeah they are nasty people and probably even worse than that but I don't get the tube thing?

I rarely get the tube but how do I know who is next to me? 

Because sooner or later someone is going to stab someone else on the tube this winter, or blow one up, possibly in a gang. Do you want that to happen?

Ohmagerd youths being obnoxious while sporting non-white skin. 

*Flaps hands and hops from one foot to the other*

I'd rather sit next to them on the tube than rancid old racist 'rush to judgement' boomer types. 

That was my point Davos, you don't. Scummy people are scummy people.

I fear you are correct in your predictions Bertha.

We had a taste of it when ISIS were at their peak, and as Hamas supporters here, and there are plenty of them, coalesce, I don't think they are going to confine themselves to peaceful demonstrations.

There was a big Jewish demo on the weekend. Was there any unruly behaviour? I genuinely don't know the answer.

Fair enough

I don't see some kids doing this is a gateway to blowing up a tube though. I may be wrong on that but there you go

Exactly Davos. Being a shit on the tube is not a gateway drug to murder and terrorism. To suggest so is deranged and bigoted. 

Really? They rip down some posters so they'll blow up the tube? Fvcking 'ell. 

People are angry. It's not hard to understand why. That doesn't make them terrorists. 

No PS there was no trouble, certainly not compared to the ‘Free Palestine’ demo and its various lunatic fringe offshoots. And that is a credit to the community.

Netanyahu is a blowhard demagogue not unlike Trump. He has been provoked into the carnage now visited upon Gaza by lunatics who are more cunning than he is. That much is clear. These people are in turn being played by smarter others. 

But if you can’t see the dangers to us in the U.K. rof ribaldry and others you are simply indulging in the sort of millennial whataboutery that has led us to this absurd brink. Were you in London on 7/7 or at primary school? Do better.

Do better

Now that's how you win friends and influence people. 

Grandad is panicking.

heh @ cookster obsessively blaming millennials still

r no m7, it’s u and ur boomer m7s who fooked it up. u incited it 

I don’t think the Israelis are even going to launch an invasion now and it will steadily ramp back down.

State of this

While enjoying a quiet pint in the pub Alf learns that Kevin O'Grady is his new neighbour. 

This is just outrage of the month, it's daft to characterise it in that way. The problem is that young people won't get access to the bribery trappings of a nice quality of life. If you the status quo leaves you too poor for a basic standard of living why wouldn't you radicalise.

Interesting the people in this video look anxious to be caught on camera. They look like they're simultaneously filling in graduate recruitment applications but know that even if successful they'd be flat sharing til 50.

I am a bit worried about young people because many of them feel they have nothing meaningful to lose.

I don't like those posters either, the slow drip-feed of footage and reports from the HAMAS killings and this sort of thing is pretty clearly part of an organised campaign to help justify and legitimise Israeli warcrimes in Gaza.  Who's putting them up exactly, people who really really want to see a long-term equitable peace in the region in co-operation with the Palestinian people?  I don't think so.

Obvs millennial apologists are obvious shocka

Strikes me that there is a clear case for fining at least one of those on film for littering!

justice through minutiae!

Mmmm... I don't know.

Tearing down a few posters seems to be a rather mild response to the murder of 6,000 Palestinians. 

The putting up and the tearing down of the posters are both political acts.

Is racially motivated littering on the statute book yet?

Its so stupid that there are people of kidnapped Israelis on our streets. Makes no fcking sense and  just more Israeli propaganda playing the victim card as usual.  

Btw Bertha, you really a right wing racist little sh1t stirrer aren't you. You are talking absolute bile.

I'd rather sit next to them on the tube than rancid old racist 'rush to judgement' boomer types. 

Oh?  Who's more likely to blow you up?   

Your mum.

Oh you said blow me up!

Love propertylawsucks’ apparent blindness to the irony of saying Israel is “playing the victim card as usual” and then calling someone a racist shitstirrer in the next sentence. 

Classic rolf 

Anyone who thinks it’s ok that this age old conflict has already spilled over onto our streets must be absolutely mad. People flee war zones to come to Britain for a peaceful better life. If that’s not enough for you, there are plenty of others who want to come here happy to take your place. It’s the same in the US or the EU fyi.

Our friend’s cousin is one of the hostages currently held in Gaza.

My nieces’s best friend was murdered at the festival.

So many family members called back up into service. So on and so forth. 

they are all the victims of the hamas massacres.

I'm fairly sure that those flyposting those posters are breaking the law in the first place: https://www.mylawyer.co.uk/graffiti-and-fly-posting-a-A76076D35092/

I don't think that any group's posters are more special than any other group's posters. 

I'm not sure how I feel about one group removing posters posted by another group which were illegally fly-posted in the first place. 

Do other people posting on this thread think that certain groups should have a carte blanche to flypost even though it is unlawful for everyone else to do so?

The people ripping them down weren’t doing a public service and ripping all the other ones off too were they?

The people ripping them down weren’t doing a public service and ripping all the other ones off too were they?

I didn't see any "other ones" in the link you posted.  And that's not really the point in any case.

I think it's a bit weird to start a thread decrying people tearing down posters that were unlawfully posted in the first place.  

FWIW  I'd have exactly the same view if the posters were of children in Gaza and being torn down by pro-Israel people.

Do you keep an eye out when you’re in town for posters that have been put up illegally and take them down, out of a sense of civic duty? Of course you don’t.

When you see a car parked on a yellow line do you look out for a nearby warden to alert, just so justice is done? Ofc you don’t. 

Propertylawsucks do you take them down as well?
