EU deal with Greece betrayal of OXI

16-07-2015 03:33

The die has been cast. The Geek prime minister Tsipras, who won the elections
because of his promise to make an end to Trojka austerity measures, has capitulated,
accepting the hardest EU deal with Greece ever. Shame on him and his party
Syriza, which has lost every credibility. It's a horrible betrayal of OXI, plunging
the Greek people in still worse misery. People of Greece, fight for Freedom!

Ublocks: Failed Pub Singer of Huyton #antifa @graham_downes @thechikky @bluehand

06-07-2015 02:29

Twitter's most annoying racist troll @ublocks, follows the shamed tradition of far right. Whereas Adolf Hitler was a failed artist, poor Les is renowned in the run-down hostelries of Huyton as a piss-artist, relegated to touting his services via Star Now as a tupenny-hapenny ballad singer who can sing rock and roll and country and western music for a bag full of peanuts and a half of watered-down shandy. So much for the kudos of online hatemongers #bluehand, when their leading light a failed pub singer.

SPORT ARE DENTISTS - EDL IN SHEFFIELD #antifa @misscheeky666 @edlnews @slatedl

04-07-2015 17:06

The regurgitated dregs of Britain's far right "foot soldiers" slithered embarrassingly into Sheffield leaving a trail of slime, used beer cans everywhere, misspelt banners of hate and sweat-encrusted t-shirts announcing their unwelcome presence. Wasting their train fares for a mindless piss-up, the flotsam and jetsam of middle-age angst meandered aimlessly from pillar to post, chanting moronic racial epithets against people with darker skins.

Taking their inspiration from the lynch mobs of the Mississippi Delta, the rednecked lager swilling former football hooligans of the "South Yorkshire Casuals" emerged as Yorkshire's answer to the KKK, marching against a rape suspect just because he was reported as having a brown skin and a "big nose"....... The pre-march event post claimed "immigrants were out to destroy Barnsley".

EDL RADICALISING LITTLE TODDLERS: #edl #antifa @edlnews @misscheeky666 @slatedl

21-06-2015 07:59

Frightening evidence has emerged that EDL parents are dressing up their children in far right merchandise. Little girls as young as three are being kitted out in clothing complete with fascist political messages designed to groom little kiddies into full-blown neo-nazi hatred which will be with them for life. Bringing up kids with the immorality of racism is totally and utterly unforgiveable. EDL parents are immoral to the extreme.

The NorthEast Division of the EDL (AKA Alan Spence), has openly come out in support of racist hate crimes on Twitter. Once upon a time, divisional Twitter accounts would have kept their mouths shut as a PR exercise, but now, Tommy Robinson long gone, they openly laud violent Islamophobic hate crimes, proud of supporting criminal hate. This is vile beyond words....

Tower Hamlets voided votes - who is 'winning'? So far, corruption heads the news

08-06-2015 09:31

Thursday's scheduled re-election of the 2014 Tower Hamlets Exec Mayor Poll is already hitting the
news in predictable manner. Already 16 allegations are under reported investigation by the Police.
But will any of these alleged offences lead to any root and branch change? Will Tower Hamlets
ever become a decently run democratic Borough? Signs today are that we may have to wait for years before that happens
