You said yourself that there's been violence at previous protests (last week) so it's obvious that there would be at any future marches, whatever else was happening that day. The met agreed that it should proceed. Armistice organisers agreed that it should proceed. Braverman through fuel on the fire.

No.

Kiddies world cup.

I agree, but he's probably as good a 4th choice CB as we could expect at this level.

Whether he's injured is a good question. Regardless, he ain't the answer.

But your point was that we had some violence last week. We'll have it at every major march where some dicks will kick off. It's always the case. Do you agree that Braverman has stirred things up? I'm not getting into a SoG discussion. It's tiresome. There's a big enough discussion to discuss.

Yep, that bench is all the reserves we've got defence and midfield wise.

What's that got to do with today Del? People are protesting, and some dicks are being dicks. What's your point?

As expected, including the nice little addition to the bench.

I've responded to your comments and views honestly (albeit toned down) and accurately Hypo. I can't help your thin skin being penetrated, and nerves being touched. That bit is on you petal.

Why? Because there's too much focus on posters on a bloody serious thread. Sure, Whelks "witch smeller" comment was unnecessary, and whilst I agreed largely with the relevant part of your post, your other point just inviting a row wasn't necessary either imo. I understand the sentiment though. There's nothing funny about your serious posts and I view those reactions, ditto th confused ones, as a reflection of those reacting.

"Only", no, but I have little doubt that it's a factor.

Indeed. France is a tinderbox at the best of times. He's got a tough job in balancing domestic and international politics. Sensible balance of words on this though imo.

His last para was unnecessary, but not the first.

Macron has essentially said that Israel have gone too far and need to stop. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/11/11/frances-macron-urges-israel-to-stop-bombing-and-killing-civilians-in-gaza

I've had, i mean seen, worse

FFS. You can't help yourself can you. You've thrown labels, had a few nibbles back, been told off by teacher, then go again. Please just wind your neck in.

You really are. I think most in this thread have the morality, humanity, and mental bandwidth to see the broader picture, and not label people wrongly. Alas, you're not one of them. It makes discussion tiresome and pointless - I'll engage no more with you.

Yep. He needs to act quickly and decisively. He can't wait for the march to be a shit show and give her the bragging rights. He needs to act on her insubordination before the event.

Hypo, you're being a bit daft, or thick, or obtuse. I'm not wasting my day going round in ever decreasing circles with you.

You cannot possibly try to argue that you've chosen to substitute the word Jews with Israelis to support arguments, and at best implied that people are anti semitic. Using your own test for anti semitism, it's easy to see how you could attract the islamaphobic tag. For clarity, I'm not labelling you islamaphobic, but I can see why others may do so, particularly given the standards that you use to assess anti semitism. In short, if you don't want to be slapped, stop swinging.

You're getting confused by the motivation of the majority, and of the loon element. As Whelk says "I think people are getting a bit worked up and doesn’t look like the march has any sort of agenda to cause trouble".
