No nerve touched, just pointing out that you’re asking a ridiculous and idiotic question. But sounds like you knew that already. Looks like you’re getting personal yet again, are you going to start abusing posters again because you don’t like being challenged? What a disgusting comment to try and belittle posters about their work during a pandemic. I’m very happily employed, but you’ve already belittled OB about his work and now you’re trying to do the same to me. Looks like the old bully is bored and unhappy with his retirement. You are so predictable - Henry yesterday me today. Seriously, I will respond to any aggressive response to something I’ve posted as you well know, nothing to do with bullying - read your reply again - “an idiotic post and sugggesting I ought to join the police force” . So “old bully” is not ageist and rude - try looking in the mirror you have a reputation - trust me. Feel free to dish out the same treatment as you did to Henry because he dared to stand up to you. btw - I have a fantastic retirement - don’t assume anything. Aggressive? I called your question idiotic, which it is. I then posed a question that was the same level of lunacy as yours, if you found that aggressive then I guess look in the mirror. I attacked your post, not yourself, and you (as usual) got in a huff and puff and started getting personal again. I presume you don’t understand the meaning or quotation marks as I have not stated anywhere “an idiotic post and suggesting I ought to join the police force”. Old bully was in relation to your personal disgraceful attack about my work. If you want to make sexist comments as well, go ahead. Didn’t realise you were itching. And finally, don’t assume anything? After you just assumed I was unemployed? Goodness me, you literally couldn’t make it up 😂

And you expect me not to respond - you’re in dreamland if you think that. And I’m an old bully - nothing personal in that - I presume. You can have the last word as you usually do as I will not respond to your reply - I’m bored.

France The vast majority of the attendees are genuine, there for the topic of the protest. The "infiltration" argument is overblown to justify the reactions of the "outraged of Tonbridge Wells" Thats not to deny a small minority, implacably opposed to the very structure of a free market economy, do not show up. You cannot argue for a ban on that basis. Sure, until I was about 14. Precisely. So why place a law on the Statute Book that mandates the police to do so? Not only that, but as it stands to not also clearly define what a "nuisance" entails, thus leaving the police in the invidious position of defining it in real time on the front line. Its stupid at best, authoritarian at worse. You know this to be true. Drop it and most, if not all, of this goes away. No, I dont, and I think a lot of the organisers of those demos will, have, looked back on that with some regret and would attempt to do things differently, But that does not negate their point. Speculation here France, no evidence. As was pointed out there was no spike after the main demos subsided, in fact the infection rate subsided to below 20/100,000 and pubs were opened up. It was only when the schools and Universities went back, under the chaotic direction of this government, that rates ticked up gain leading to the November "circuit breaker" and then went completely out of control again after Christmas, after the chaotic messaging and direction of....the government. I sense your anger, but I think you should direct it at the government, one whose mixed, incoherent, messaging and policies quite likely led to the deaths of thousands of people. Think about it France, this is the same government that whats introduce a law that mandates the police to arrest someone for being a nuisance. These incompetent buffoons, authoritarian buffoons, must be resisted. Oh to have Comrade Corbyn in charge! Egged on by by his brother Piers there would be no lock-downs, no PPE. We’d probably have no vaccines or immunisation programme. Who knows you might even have beenstruck down yourself but never mind. You could suffer safe in the knowledge your right to protest is enshrined. Can you imagine if Daffy Duck, or Ronald MacDonald, were in charge. No? Me neither, so it's irrelevant as is having your needle stuck on the groove of "what about...click..."what about"...click..."what about"...click....ad infinitum. Time to dust down your narrative Oldgas

Question - did anyone on this thread that feels so strongly about the right to protest, even during a pandemic about this particular Bill feel strongly enough to actually attend the protest or are you just supporting it from the comfort zone of your armchairs. I would, but travelling into Bristol from Gloucestershire is a bit of a water take. Anyway, I am getting a bit old for this. My last demo was 2018 in London. Oh, and the pubs are shut😂😂😂

The French don't mess about do they, farmers protest against unfair produce prices.

Aggressive? I called your question idiotic, which it is. I then posed a question that was the same level of lunacy as yours, if you found that aggressive then I guess look in the mirror.

You can have the last word as you usually do as I will not respond to your reply - I’m bored. Blueridge, I’m sure you’re aware but Gassy inhabits a parallel universe to the rest of us. In his universe the EU aren’t green with envy and spitting feathers at our vaccination success, neither are they threatening to block further exports of the vaccine to the UK, even though we pay more per dose and signed a much more thorough and binding contract with the suppliers, at least 2 months before the EU signed a much less exact and open ended contract. He also refuses to admit that Merkel and Macron have poured doubts on the effectiveness of the Oxford AZ vaccine, and then said it caused blood clots on the brain. In that way they sought to dampen down demands for the vaccine by their populations, because of course they didn’t have that much to go around. So successful was their scare-mongering they are now sitting on unused stocks estimated at between 4 and 18 million doses. Even so, to stop us getting even further ahead, they want to stop us receiving any more. This is the mind-set and mentality you’re dealing with; it really isn't worth bothering.

Haha keep making up lies OldGas. I’ve addressed this many times. But guess what you’re talking about again? Vaccines & EU 😂 Remember - rent free 👍🏻

Question - did anyone on this thread that feels so strongly about the right to protest, even during a pandemic about this particular Bill feel strongly enough to actually attend the protest or are you just giving an opinion from the comfort zone of your armchairs. Sorry, but what an idiotic and ridiculous leading question that is. It's like me asking you: As you are so angry against the violence, are you actually going to sign up to become a police officer and fight crime, or just give an opinion from behind your keyboard? It’s a straightforward question and nowhere near being idiotic and ridiculous. I think to anyone your reply is ridiculous as why would he want to become a police officer just because he doesn’t like the crime figures? It’s so much different than just going to an illegal protest for the early evening then back to ‘normal’ life. Keep it up the humour Gassy its a learning curve for me.

Because he’s suggesting that you either go protest or your opinion is meaningless and you hide at home. It was a closed question giving 2 choices to make - which in the scenario is frankly ridiculous and idiotic, which I stand by. There are many more scenarios to the question, other than the 2 he gave. I hope you understand that now.

Ha ha ha ha ha, I can just imagine his email to Marxists R Us. “Sorry I can’t be with you in Bristol to topple the Bastard Tory Government Brothers, but I don’t want to be in breach of Coved regs by making an unnecessary car journey. With you in spirit Comrades, keep the Red Flag flying” Oooh me sides!

In this surreal world we live could it just be that the ‘never wrong’ condone wanton vandalism and destruction and would love this country to descend into anarchy? Condoning the actions of f**ked up French farmers what will be next? The same farmers driving £40/50,000 tractors to knock down trees in a democratic protest! The same farmers who are paid to throw milk down the drain and have their other dairy produce stacked high in warehouses to control prices by the vile organisation they are protesting about by proxy. All I know is that I am glad I was brought up the right way. Unbelievable.
