Rightwing talking heads will say that the "protesters" today were instigated by the behaviour of the last few weeks.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
When you're so thick that forcing your brain to work in order to make some word salad causes you to run out of breath.
And any sensible person would see through it
Abominations and total pussies to boot, this is probably the same folk that were running away in thousands from a dozen of Russians in the streets of Marseille.
He's like that Pakistani Glasgow rangers supporter who tags along with edl
The fight outside Waterloo
Christ alive. Why is it that people can't realise how monumentally fecking stupid it is to be out in a city with thousands of others protesting at a time like this. I don't care whether its the vets/patriots with the far right cnuts or the BLM activists with the far left cnuts. Ugh.
Yeah it's annoying but not surprising. Never underestimate the level of stupidity the human race can stoop to.
From a man who says statues should stay up as they teach the UK about their past faults.
"Hitler err killed the people who wanted to umm kill them."
I don’t think I saw this covered here, but a young black man was found hanging from a tree after a BLM rally a few days ago. They are treating it as a suicide, but he didn’t seem to be high-risk according to people that knew him. It was north of LA right down the road from where an unarmed 61 year old AA man was killed by police in his living room the day before. Daily Beast
And last night an AA man was killed in Atlanta, apparently shot in the back after resisting arrest. ABC News

And the West has the audacity to judge other countries from some moral high ground? Absolute bollocks, these scenes are fecking atrocious.
That guy on the ground looked half-dead, one comment said he also got stabbed...

Proud to say that one of my former students / football players is one of the guys who started the petition and got it on the news. Awesome kid who has become an even better young man.
And if anyone ever wondered why he won the election and why he has so many supporters it's rhetoric like that. This is the UK's future so get used to it. England has shifted way too much to the right for me to have any faith going forward.
Wearing a Rangers tracksuit... I'm stunned.
Can you explain the difference?
Havent gone through all this thread but from the couple videos i seen it doesnt look much different than what happened in America.
Apart from what happened in America be a legitimate cause.
Edit to say im not fanning the flames, its a genuine question because I haven't seen enough of the videos to make my own judgement yet
Clearly, there isn't a link between arguing against the removal of statues and the rise of right-wing lunatics like him and Farage.
Standing in front of a statue defending Churchill because he "killed Hitler" while his mates are running around throwing Nazi salutes.
Can you please bin it with all this nonsense about the middle being the moral high ground here? "The truth lies somewhere in the middle" head ass reasoning
First and last time I'll say this about the Tory cnut, but at least he's called these cnuts today racist. Sir Keir couldn't be bothered.
'Yes, but you see, these are British racists - and therefore better than any other nation's racists. World-beating racists.'
Open topped bus parade. They will be wanting a few knighthoods for this. If I were the queen I would be sharpening the sword.
Person 1: “racism is bad and should be consigned to history”
Person 2: “get back in your box and don’t challenge my racism”
Person 3: “The truth is usually somewhere in the middle, I’m so reasonable”
No that guy's wearing jeans the other guy had jogging bottoms and seems younger and sounds like he got stabbed and sent to hospital.
There's a picture going around on twitter, which i am not sure am allowed to post on here but looks in a very bad way
Not really... there will be people who feel more strongly about cv19 and social distancing than they care about either side of the protests
Personally having lost a neighbour and having a work colleague in a coma with cv19 I feel that probably both protests will end up killing thousands of people and im not sure thats going to help their cause in the long term... which is a shame for blm imo and I couldnt care less about the edl ... but both protests have put many at risk imo
I don't know if to laugh or cry...
That’s a stupid thing to do, nothing suggests that the white protesters aren’t as bad financial state as the black ones.
Although I see what he means by just a token gesture to protest..
There are many people who are understandably staying at home because of concerns about the epidemic. But that doesn't mean they're in the middle. Some feel strongly that black lives do matter. Some of them are racist. And some don't care either way but that doesn't make them rational measured people just because they're in the middle
I see this a lot and it grates me
The guy from the first vid has an injury on his right side temple
The seem to have created their own autonomous zone and are policing themselves
To say neutral in an argument, is to take the side of the oppressor...
Who is “they” and why is that man being held down?
