Using a democratic process to change a decision is nothing like making up false accusations of fraud to undermine a vote. I’m not surprised a simpleton like you can’t see the difference though. If Cameron has claimed the vote was fraudulent and just ignored the result it would have been similar.

It’s about time they enforced the rules, too many people taking the piss with the rules and they always have an excuse.

Just don’t let him near the button!

Exactly.

You didn't even get the right door so I'm not sure how you can say what the situation the other side was.

She wasn't executed for criminal damage, she was shot because she was part of a mob threatening a load of Senators. You really do talk some shite.

You cannot divorce the protests from their cause though, you can have more sympathy for violence and disorder if there is genuine injustice, like the riots in South Africa during apartheid or in Hong Kong for example. The violence around the BLM protests was wrong but rioting over police murder is a bit more understandable than because your side lost an election IMO. Either way the people causing the violence are generally twats wether they are left or right. I have never understood why for whatever cause people protest over, some people feel the need to attack some poor copper just doing their job.

No I don't. I said at the time they were a bunch of twats.

There's protesting, then there is trying to break into congress. I don't have a problem with anyone protesting, it's a fundamental right.

To be fair, one group are protesting about police murder, the others don't like an election result.

I never suggested one form of rioting is more acceptable, just that you should expect a different response from security protecting Congress than police dealing with protests/riots. It's not rocket science.

I think 9 in total in 2020, breaking into the Capitol building is a bit different to rioting in the streets tho. This article highlights the difference in the policing in two similar events: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/06/capitol-mob-police-trump-george-floyd-protests-photos

Is your hero still "playing a blinder"?

Yeah, I'm surprised more were not shot, you don't expect those who protect the Capitol to mess around. I think we all know the death toll would be higher had it been a BLM protest trying to takeover Congress.

Pipe bomb, person shot and killed, riots, breaking into the Capitol. Just like the Brexit protests...

They need to enact the 25th, the bloke is getting more and more deranged.

I was just highlighting how different the two groups were dealt with by the plod, nothing to do with you.

When did I last bring them up?

Imagine what the Police response would have been if it was BLM breaking into Congress.

Now there are people turning up at protests with assault rifles, fucking loons.

What a great performance, thought Diallo was class.

Boris is all over the place as usual, yesterday I sat and watched the mop-haired twat say “schools are safe”, now after I just sent my daughter in after two weeks of mixing with no one, they are a vector for spreading it.

If you think Aids was a bigger threat than Covid you are a fucking idiot.

At the very least the vulnerable teachers should be at the top.

The government is in a tough situation, and you are right, they will get criticised whatever they do. But they still need to be accountable for their decisions and Bozo has made some shockers. With regards to schools, they seem incapable of working with teachers and seem more intent on just picking fights instead of just sitting down with the people who have to implement their ideas, presenting the science and working out the best solution. We all want kids to go back to school, teachers more than anyone, and we all want to minimise deaths. It appears to me like the government are more concerned about the optics and putting the blame on the teachers - they know that closing the schools is an unpopular thing to do so want to shift the blame. I mean, what is the point if statements like “it’s important kids get an education”? it’s just stating the obvious.
