    What’s the point in Virtue Signalling ?
    Isn’t it like protection money ?
    You signal that you are in the RIGHT tribe, and thus the tribe will turn a blind eye to your misdemeanours
    That why the libmob laid off talking about Brendan Cox’s groping etc.

    Likewise as pointed out (on the previous page near the top) EmmaBarnett is able to say
    ” look over there Orange man is BAD Sexist he said something bad in 2005″
    .. no forgiveness
    Whilst time forgives her accountant father jailed in 2003 and 2005 for making £5m from “whores”
    (her mother convicted also)

    That blond thing on the right makes me think that the subjugation of women might have some merit after all.

    Fewer milkshakes wouldn’t hurt, either.

      He should have said to her “god you really ought to do something about that bad breath ” that would have shut her up.

      In fact its a good remark to anyone getting too close and mouthing off.

    Just casting my mind back to previous US presidents visits, and the Fascist Left have protested just about every Republican president who has visited the UK since Ronald Reagan.

    I can recall the Fascists at the time telling us all Reagan was a warmonger and would start WWIII despite the fact that his policies actually ended the cold war and brought down the Berlin wall, the Fascists never ever apologised or even acknowledged his achievement.

    George H W Bush also faced protests from the Fascists, his son George W Bush was portayed as an idiot who was likely to starts WWIII

    Despite some Democrat Presidents doing terrible things such as Obama, the Fascists have never protested them.

    Please remember that when the Fascists try to personalise the protest, they are saying nothing about Trump that haven’t said about previous Republican Presidents, the real danger lies in them and their total intolerance of any opposition.

    “Still under Nazi control, the Reichstag passed a new law on March 21, 1933, that made it a crime to speak out against the new government or criticize its leaders. Known as the Malicious Practices Act, the law made even the smallest expression of dissent a crime. Those who were accused of “gossiping” or “making fun” of government officials could be arrested and sent to prison or a concentration camp.”

    Just watch Corbyn follow his mentor if he ever gains power and just remember you were warned about this.

      Watching the various protest groups today I realised how much a right wing, heterosexual, white male President is hated.To be able to appeal to all these various protestors, it seems that the next President should be a left wing snowflake.Ideally also either female,black,or gay.Of course in the world of these protestors, the dream President would be a combination of all of these traits.

    I looked over the fence the other day to see my Muslim neighbour and his wife burying their daughter up to the neck in the garden and preparing a pile of stones at the other end.

    I immediately called the ‘police’ and thanks to British justice, I’m now due in court on charges of religious intolerance and ‘Islamofauxbia’ !

      Their daughter must have done something to deserve her punishment, like revealed her ankles in public or looked at a man.
      So she had it coming.

    I saw a feature about D-Day recently on TV.

    A 94 year old British soldier was interviewed. He went ashore in his tank on D-Day and further inland they captured a German soldier. Rather than hand him over to the French who they suspected would kill him, they kept the German soldier with them for five days as they advanced.

    They handed him over the the British military police at the end of this time. The German soldier cried in gratitude when he left them.

    This says a lot to me.

    Brussels would never understand.

    That’s why we must Leave.

    John Pienaar’s piece to camera outside the Houses of Parliament on tonight’s news at 10 was photobombed by the Revoke Article 50 crowd. Standing with one placard either side of Mr P’s head, both of which were rotated at regular intervals to show the message on the other side.

    I believe from earlier comments that exactly the same happened during the 6. It seems pretty clear it was arranged, otherwise why repeat the same mistake when another place could have been chosen for the broadcast. The way the man walked on, right on cue, suggested a high degree of collusion. And, as before, no attempt to zoom in to hide the placards.

    As much as I dislike John McDonnell and Keir Starmer they are both intelligent men.I wonder how long it will take before they realise Labour will not get into power with Corbyn as leader.

      “……officers reacted quickly and separated those involved.””

      Are they the Police or a “Separation Unit” ?

        Just separated them. Didn’t even make the offender (assault) stand in the naughty corner.
        Did she actually Radio for help or was she just booking him a lift home like the idiot who assaulted TR?

    Piers Morgan spoke to Emily Thornberry this morning on ITV.

    He told her that there was a possibility that she could be Foreign Secretary in a few months. She looked horrified.

    It’s easy to be shouty when you are in opposition.

    Real life kicks in when you are in power.

    Reading through the fog of Al Beeb’s news this evening I have come to the conclusion that the Conservatives, Labour and the Limpidems are dead scared of calling a General Election. There is a new party that would take them to the cleaners.
    The vibes I have heard coming from behind the closed doors of the 1922 Committee are that they are in a severe panic .

    It’s been an eventful 24 hours.

    BBC Online News:

    “”The Labour leader had proposed talks with Mr Trump, with a spokesman saying he was ready to engage with the US president on issues such as climate change, threats to peace and the refugee crisis – but these were refused.””
