pellinore Posted August 7 #1 Share Posted August 7 (edited) Thousands of Brits have sent a message to far-right thugs who plotted to attack the offices of immigration lawyers - after turning out in huge numbers to see off hate in the wake of the Southport stabbings. Around 100 hate-fuelled protests were planned across the country tonight, many of which were planned in now-deleted far-right groups on apps such as Telegram, with police deployed in their biggest mobilisation of resources since the 2011 riots. Thugs had been using now-banned channels on the app to threaten the lives of anti-racism campaigners, make sick slurs and exchange tips on how to 'hood up'. But promises to turn up at immigration centres, lawyers and refugee hostels at 8pm seemingly vanished into thin air - as hate mobs were seemingly cowed by a swell of anti-racist protesters who turned out in force in cities across the UK. Thousands of counter-protesters flock onto British streets to crowd out anti-immigration demos planned at '100 sites' - leaving agitators in Brighton seeking protection from police as the country remains largely calm | Daily Mail Online Edited August 7 by pellinore 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see the the people coming out in support of our country's values. I imagine the sentencing today probably scared away most of the far right as well. They're always cocky until they start facing consequences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pellinore Posted August 7 Author #3 Share Posted August 7 (edited) The vast majority of Brits are decent people. We defeated fascism in Europe in the middle of the last century, we will defeat it in the UK in this century. Nigel Farage needs to be treated the way Oswald Mosley was, both traitors. It was feared tonight (Wednesday) a spate of more racist and violent protests would spill onto Britain's streets, with police prepared to respond to more than 100 planned far-right gatherings and potentially around 30 more counter-protests. Unrest was anticipated in 41 of the 43 police force areas in England and Wales. But so far the violence seems to have been nothing to that which has been seen in recent weeks and some extraordinary scenes have unfolded instead showing thousands of people marching in solidarity with immigrants and for peace.
