The annual Oxford Union nontroversy - some toffling gets the chair for a year and tries to think of the most outrageous speakers he (or she, but most probably he) can come up with. Tommy's a pretty uninspired choice tbh. Didn't Fred West do it one year?

tommy boy is back in jail. re: bags of beer. the point is that they treat political protest like a piss up or football away game. and they wonder why people call em pissheads and don't take em seriously. even on the far right the general opinion is similar. its not great PR is it? anyway, off back to hibernation.

FFS, did you ever go on a Reclaim the Streets event?

The point of Reclaim the Streets was to take over a public space and have a party. Have you been to many parties where there was no beer?

The edl are supposed to be protesting against the 'islamification' of the uk. Freely supping on Stella rather proves Islam has a rather long way to go. It also makes them look lacking in discipline.

When you said," .....the point is that they treat political protest like a piss up or football away game." for a moment had the impression you were commenting Oxbridge/Oxford Students clanging for a decent Resumé for whichever career path/group they are heading, whether its Fabian Society OUSU/Ruskin Student Union, UAF etc or Institute Of Ideas, Right Wing Libertarians/Caesars, Bullingdon Club, Assassins, OUCA etc. It all seem sabit orchaestrated; more like an opportunistic strategy to impress those necessary for aspiring to the future vocation

Anyone on the NF Remembrance day parade this year, make sure you assemble at Bressendon Place, Victoria at 2pm. march heading off at 2.30pm. If you intend meeting me earlier, then call me on 07763343336 or pm on here for the pub we will be meeting in. Don't be fooled by the earlier march, by the NF hijacker faction. That one leaves at 1.45pm.
 
Do they still get allowed to do their own macabre laying of a wreath ceremony after the official one is over and everyone has fucked off?

Nazis laying a wreath on the graves of those who fought Nazis. Why is that not seen as a greater insult than some pissed student urinating on the cenotaph?
 
there are 2 factions of the NF, one 'official' version led by kevin bryant, a rather uninspired balloonhead, and the other faction that is also supposed to the 'official' one as well. big fallouts over a thoroughly toxic brand. the BNP is also splitting into pro- and anti- Griffinites after naziclops resigned but then refused to let go of the reigns. NF and BNP are all threatening one another over who is going to run their party into the sewer along with all the other rats and shite.
 
to further clarify the NF demise from the Electoral Commission:

The Commission’s press officer now says that [NF] gave us “incorrect information” earlier this week: the NF has been deregistered, but not for the reasons he previously gave. According to the latest Commission statement: “The National Front did not respond to our request to renew their registration details with us and when we asked if they wanted to be de-registered, they confirmed that they did.”

The statement continues: “From January, individuals from the two ‘groups’ would be able to make an application to register the party name or variations on the party name. Section 28 of the Political Parties Elections Referendums Act (PPERA) says that when two applications to register the same party name are pending at the same time, it’s the responsibility of the Electoral Commission to determine by reference to the history of each of the applicant parties which of them has the greatest claim to register the name.

oh dear.
 
can't believe i havent seen it already but forward to 55 secs in and then see robinson doing what he always does, grasses to the police. that is if anyone remembers him.

as there are now 2 factions they got to march a bit earlier when there were more people about

yes there are 2 factions of the NF, the kevin bryant one and the ian edwards one. whilst being pre-occupied with internal division, they have been deregistered by the electoral commission so neither faction have any claim on the name. good job really cos it's a toxic one electorally. both factions were at remembrance sunday but were kept apart on separate micro-marches.
 
yes it is a toxic brand even amongst the fash. There are those who think it wards off voters and still has that '70s feeling.'

'has never been anything even remotely 'lad' about Vice -no consistency or depth to their 'politics', but their gonzo/on the spot/fringe politico stuff isnt really matched anywhere else.

Fair enough. Showing my ignorance there regarding their editorial. I just lumped them in with Nuts etc for some reason.

its been pretty mad how they've developed, from ultra hipsters to 'global media platform' with James Murdoch on the board ( NI : 5 % stake , valauation $2.5 bn ) within 10 years ( they were only a niche magazine before that) .

Always thought they had some sound people working there, but boss Shane Smith slagging of Occupy , Martin Sorrel / Murdoch etc involved, its was only going to go one way.
 
At least they actually bother to cover this sort of stuff. And from an 'aren't the far right a bit shit?' position rather than gawping in awe or fear mongering. Ive since been reliably informed as to why these stories are appearing in Vice, but in PM so that's all I can say about that.

True, but it's a bit like the Simpsons being Fox produced - just slurp up enough of our shit (even the good stuff) then when we tell you to jump, you will. I just resent the corps needing to stick their or in just to make some money
