That really isn't a figure to boast about.

Then why brag about it? Weird.

Sometimes I can just be impressed by the energy and commitment of people getting off their arses and protesting even if I don't agree with all the opinions being expressed.

That doesn't answer the question I asked, are you glad people are getting off their arses to argue in support of the EU? To cheer on LibDem wankers?

You can do whatever you want but I think arguing in support of the EU is terrible liberal nonsense. Getting the leader of party which attacked the poorest people in the country to speak is not just shit but shows up plenty of these people as mugs.

“I’m here because I feel totally disenfranchised, hoodwinked and browbeaten into this political, financial and social suicide,” said Mark Riminton, a business consultant from Sussex, “and the only thing I can think of to do is go on a march.”

Oh poor him. Of course he doesn't actually know what it feels like to be disenfranchised, unlike so many of the people who voted Leave.

I can't speak for all the people on the protest and, as I've explained, there was a fairly diverse range of opinions being expressed, neither am I going to get into an argument defending whatever position it is you don't like. It's a complex issue with a myriad of possible outcomes. I'm still working out my take on it.

But I'm generally always for people getting off their arses and doing something rather than lolling about in their chair and 'liking' some fucking post on Facebook or whatever and thinking it adds up to much.

Then you are very, very, very wrong. And what a silly thing to try and brag about anyway. Quite childish.

How many non-league hipster football matches get 30,000 people?

fair enough, i only scrolled back about three months, when do I get to more than 4 reweets?

 

[coley]

By describing a bunch of people you've never met - or know the slightest thing about - as a " bunch of privileged, self satisfied, self indulgent wankers."

Aye you might have a point, given the media has made a point of interviewing leavers, focusing on those whose appearance and views suit the establishment viewpoint, that leavers are (and I base my opinion on those who I have seen interviewed on the street, as opposed to those in various TV chat shows)
Who are invariably overweight, who fail to express a coherent viewpoint (other than its all about immigration innit) and if they can be seen smoking and chewing a burger! And pushing a child in a pushchair while doing so ?
All more grist to the neoliberal mill, mind you, if they can be depicted, pushing a small child in a pushchair, while smoking and scoffing a Big Mac and slurping a tin of super strength lager, while reading the sun/mail, while filling in their benefit application forms and at the same time denouncing immigrants.
Aye, no doubt us multi tasking Northerners were the focus of the self indulgent marchers in London earlier today.

I've not asked you to, I asked whether in your opinion it is/was a good thing that people were marching in support of the EU and cheering on LibDem filth. If you don't know/don't want to answer fine but don't pretend I'm asking you to speak for the whole march.

The last thing I wrote on Buzz (this afternoon) has already been shared 916 times. Some articles have been shared and retweeted thousands of times. Now put your little willly away, ffs. This is embarrassing.

Gosh, I wish I was as ideologically pure as you, redsquirrel, but it would just be so exhausting keeping up with the condemnations and compiling the lists

Can't be arsed to deal with your Big Agenda tonight, thanks.

Aye, remember the 'Jarrow march' got a lot of support from your lot, didn't it? Expect a similar level of support for your ' march' from today's ' disenfranchised'

"You lot"? WTF.

Yeah, not cheering on a party in coalition government for five years during which they taxed the poor to support the rich, raised tuition fees to £9000, ramped the privatisation of the education sector up a gear, etc is being ideologically pure.

Not cheering on a neo-liberal institution forcing millions of people into poverty throughout Europe, paying developing countries to set up camps for immigrants is being ideologically pure.

Maybe it's just called having some fucking politics and not being a wet liberal cunt.

You seem weirdly obsessed about bragging about a really inconsequential amount of retweets for a crappy post. If it makes you feel better: yes, you are the king of retweets. No one can match *18* retweets. Whoop! That is amazing! You are the King of the Internezzzzzzzzzzz.

ill just add here i won't be even remotely surprised to see this result fudged and then overturned . not even remotely surprised . because I've seen it happen twice ..no..3 times..before in the last few years..Lisbon treaty, Nice Treaty..Greek referendum on austerity . And fuck all happened as a result. Either in Ireland or Greece. A major reason why i voted no . Fact is these cunts out marching are the ones who are actually tapped into the system. The ones the media and elites are friendly with..they are much more likely to relate to each other . They don't call them " these people " on the BBC . They just call them people. They humanise them right from the get go. They might actually get what they want. They own the commentariat, they control the narrative. Or vice versa to be more precise. Theres a good chance they'll get their way .

You don't think you might be negatively stereotyping just a teensy weensy bit here?

Beep boop. A kinder, more inclusive kind of politics.

 

[coley]

"You lot"? WTF.

Don't act dim, 'your lot' being the same smug well heeled London/ SE metropolitan elite of the 20s/30s, something's never change. Mind you, that might not be true these days, if the ME elite are thwarted in getting the referendum overturned, might even visit lunnern just to hear the outraged screams

Bit pointless trying to have a sensible discussion with someone who can only see the world in such ridiculous black/white, chip-on-the-shoulder stereotypes. Oh well. Enjoy slagging off all those people you know nothing about, But you've seen the photos, right?

While id accept the situation for the people marching is a bit more nuanced than that, i don't think I'm stereotyping the likes of the commentariat or the BBC for a minute. Nor do i believe I'm wrong that the demands the result is overturned stands a higher chance of success due to the social inclusion of of those who support it, when compared to the social exclusion of many who voted no . Yeah, fair point, I'm using a pretty broad brush to paint the situation but ultimately i think my points a valid one.

 

[redsquirrel]

Sorry, where have I argued for a more inclusive politics? Inclusive of who, being the question of course. Those who have sensible opinions and are the right sort of people.

Liberalism is responsible for the increasing inequality in the UK, it is responsible for the dismantling of the welfare state and the attacks on other countries. Like any socialist/communist I'm utterly opposed to liberalism. That doesn't mean that I won't work with liberals on a tactical level but any sort of progressive mash up can fuck right off, it's simply (yet another) attack on labour.

Thank you sincerely.
You have clearly illustrated the points I have been trying to make and if anyone should doubt the 'London centric' direction of the management of urban 75, and it's blind pursuance of the EUs desire to install a superstate across Europe? than you have clearly dispelled all doubts.
Yes I looked at the "photos" not bad, slightly better than average, well done.
