Britain's biggest morons burn cardboard Grenfell Tower on bonfire

[two sheds]

I would have gone but something came up

 

[Guineveretoo]

There were estimated to be about 400 people on the march tonight. Good turnout and great to see South Norwood standing up against the fucking moronic racists in our midst.

It was covered by ITV News and lots of local journalists were there.

I’m visible in lots of the photos and in the background of some of the telly news coverage (so I’m told).

 

[Guineveretoo]

Hundreds march through South Norwood to support Grenfell

which includes the words "the South Norwood Woodcraft Folk (and you know you are on the side of the righteous when you are marching with the Woodcraft Folk)"

Bloody hippies

I was about to post that video - it clearly shows me, and my family, and the Woodcraft Folk placards we made.

Did you go on the march?

It may also be worth the forum's legal experts considering whether the two men aged 49 and the others aged 19, 46 and 55 have committed any offences relating to malicious communications under the Communications Act 2003 (or similar legislation).

This is what the white supremacists who gathered in a South Norwood found so funny?:

Grenfell inquiry: 12-year-old victim pleaded for fire crews to hurry

Jessica Urbano Ramirez had left her flat on the 20th floor. She went up three more floors in the 24-storey block in west London. She repeatedly asked London Fire Brigade control room officer Sarah Russell: "Please can you hurry up?"

Even if we don't get the joke, we sure get the message.​

It's a scraping site that is automatically altering words to (try to) avoid copyright claims from basically redistributing whole articles.

On Twitter, Theresa Would possibly stated: “To disrespect those that misplaced their lives at Grenfell Tower, in addition to their households and family members, is completely unacceptable.”

Reported 'property millionaire' Paul Bussetti, 46, of South Norwood was charged by the Metropolitan Police on Friday 12 April 2019 with two counts of sending/causing to be sent grossly offensive material via a public communications network, contrary to section 127 (1) (a) and (3) of the Communications Act 2003.

He is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Tuesday 30 April 2019.

This follows an investigation into a video posted online that showed a cardboard model of Grenfell Tower being burnt.

After Bussetti was arrested, it emerged he co-owned an £8m block of flats in Clapham, south London, which were said to bring in around £30,000-a-month a rent.

None of the other five men arrested in relation to the same incident have so far been charged. As of 6 November 2019, they were released from police custody and remained on police bail.

His trial is expected to take place at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 29 July 2019.

I'm pretty sure they weren't.

But I hope this case goes the distance.

Surprised the bloke didn’t end up as a UKIP candidate.

"Yeah, there's video of me doing it, but I should be able to get away with it anyway."

"Yeah, there's video of me doing it, but I should be able to get away with it anyway."

He’s being charged for sending it, not making it. Good lawyer in a mags with suitable words about how he ‘deeply regrets’ and is ‘shocked the video was made public’, he’ll get off.

Not unless they manage to argue that putting it on youtube doesn't count as sending it, and that'd create a rather significant precedent.

He didn’t though, he shared it on WhatsApp. His lawyer’s job is to convince a magistrate (or DIstrict Judge, since it’s Westminster) that the prosecution has failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that he shared it on a public network. The first element of that will be that he never intended it to be shown on YouTube (which would probably be bollocks, but may not be provable)... the second will be that WhatsApp groups are private, or not fully public.

There are probably other elements they can argue too, that just seemed the most obvious.

The trial of Paul Bussetti began today at Westminster Magistrates' Court:

"A South Norwood man who filmed a cardboard model of Grenfell Tower burning on a bonfire said it had been a "stupid moment" and he had "no idea" why he took the footage and shared it in two WhatsApp groups, a court has heard ..."

South Norwood man says filming Grenfell Tower bonfire video was a 'stupid moment'

 

[Treacle Toes]

Just filming it was stupid? Not building it, burning it and laughing like a fucking bigot? Righto Paul.
