The far-right demo in Glasgow yesterday was vastly out numbered by the counter demo.

In Glasgow, thousands came together to voice their opposition to a rally endorsed by far-right figure Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

Around 2,000 anti-racism activists assembled in George Square to counter the ‘Pro-UK rally’ supported by Robinson.

Despite a few hundred far-right activists being present, they were significantly outnumbered, and a large police presence ensured that the groups remained apart.

The BBC TV news actually reported it as 2-3,000 counter demonstrators, and just 3-400 fascists.

3-400 is still too many fascists. Guess that’s Glasgow’s orange twats showing up.

Regarding the Rotherham sentencing, I think it’s pretty easy to see a distinction between protests like that, where you actually had to have a racist motive to even bother making the trip, and some of the city centre shit that might have drawn in a few passing dickheads who saw a ruck and dived in for the thrill. Anyone at the hotel was there to attack or distress asylum seekers, not make a political protest.

I'll give the judge some credit for this one.

Ordering a total of £1,200 in compensation to be paid, the judge told the mum: “I note that it is approximately the same price as your holiday to Ibiza.”

Also apparently he was wearing a balaclava, I wonder what percentage of balaclavas are owned for legitimate reasons? Probably about the the same as the percentage of baseball bats owned (in the UK) with the intention of playing baseball.

Oi. I still keep a short baseball bat by the door, ever since some "Mister Big" twat made some heavy duty threats and confirmed he had my address ten years ago. Fortunately, I haven't needed to use it but it quietly sits there, just in case

Rest assurred, the kids, when they were still kids, had definitely used it for a variation of baseball/softball. I still have the ball and glove somewhere.

I got one of those cheap cricket sets for much the same thing - in case - but I think the bat might not hold up. Could be better off poking my would be antagonist in the eye with the little wickets.

Ah, so you did not buy it with the intention of playing baseball.

All the cool kids wear balaclavas. Hence the cops needing the powers of stop and unmask.

"One profile - belonging to a woman called Bernadette Spofforth - has been accused of making the first post featuring the false name of the Southport attacker. She denied being its source, saying she saw the name online in another post that has since been deleted.

Speaking to the BBC on the phone, she said she was “horrified” about the attack but deleted her post as soon as she realised it was false. She said she was “not motivated by making money” on her account.

“Why on earth would I make something up like that? I have nothing to gain and everything to lose,” she said. She condemned the recent violence.

Ms Spofforth had previously shared posts raising questions about lockdown and net-zero climate change measures. However, her profile was temporarily removed by Twitter back in 2021 following allegations she was promoting misinformation about the Covid-19 vaccine and the pandemic. She disputed the claims and said she believed Covid is real.

Bernadette "Bernie" Spofforth, who had been arrested on suspicion of publishing written material to stir up racial hatred, will face no further action:

Not surprised by that TBH, I couldn't understand how they could make a case against someone reposting fake information like that, it's not on the same level as those that have appeared in court so far, that posted things like 'burn your city down' and 'burn the hotels', they were calls to action, which her post was not.

That one always seemed a massive stretch.

It was like someone seeing the name posted elsewhere and then posting on U75 "the arsehole has been named as Joe Bloggs", which we've all seen done on occasions.

That would've opened a massive can of worms.

Patriotic Alternative (PA) have raised over £13,000 for people jailed for participating in the anti-migrant riots. They are currently encouraging supporters to write to three prisoners, who all took part in rioting in Hull. The three are all being held in HMP Hull, which PA’s Yorkshire regional organiser Sam Melia is currently incarcerated in. PA have so far given £2,000 to the family of Lewis Carver, a 31-year-old who was jailed for 16 months for throwing a traffic cone towards police and holding a riot shield over his head.

Patriotic alternative? Fundraising for someone who is breaking the laws and carrying out acts of violence and destruction against your country seems to be the opposite of being patriotic.

Kind of interesting that they're doing this cos I always thought of that kind of activity as something that fascists were usually pretty bad at, I can't remember hearing about the EDL ever organising anything similar for the various people who ended up serving time after their demos. Although to put it in proportion, at the end of August cops were saying they'd made 1,280 arrests, so that prisoner support fund PA have going works out at about a quid per person arrested.

They might well pick up a few members/create a bit of cred from this by emphasising that they, unlike a certain other person, are raising money to support 'political prisoners' whilst the certain other person will be raising money for himself

If they ever see any of it.
I don't think the point here is to raise money, but make shit political point about two tier Keir or whatever.

Can imagine it might also be aimed at potential recruits a bit as well - "join PA and you'll get looked after if you get locked up" kind of thing.

Wow! They've raised a massive thirteen grand.

The boneheads have been digging deep.

I think we raised almost a quarter of that for a cat on here.

Interesting to see the far right adopt these tactics. Think this is the first time I've seen an org like this show support and meaningful solidarity for ppl in prison rather than just throwing them under the bus. Is it new? Or just something that I've missed?

Doing fundraisers and prisoner solidarity letter writing is going to help them build up a base of support and trust and will help their branding that 'we take care of our own'.

I tried to speculate in post 1288 on here about what might be attempts at a strategy by the far right and this was suggested to be one of them . There have been some attempts in the past about raising money, support and protests for jailed far right activists organised by far right grouplets ( including PR for Sam Melia) rather than the TR movement. Funnily enough, the TR movement only seems to fundraise for TR .

I think it does a bit more than that. There is whole infrastructure , and trail of ex companies that , have helped deliver his activities which includes film production,social media accounts, security, and surveillance, that costs a few bob to maintain or contract in. There's no doubt that his inner circle get some income from his rallies.
