I am sick and tired of people who lack the literacy skills to read the Guardian pretending to be victims.

Yes, all three of them. Stop trying to draw a comparison.

You do not express "a desire to show some respect for this countries (sic) traditions and values" by goading the police in Chinatown.

@mrror8933 According to Suella Braverman, it is for people who eat tofu, but she also believes that homelessness is a "lifestyle choice".

You don't either. It's Armistice Day - not armistace (sic).

The "forgotten kids" in Liverpool were last seen trying to loot a phone shop.

@NewMinority I very much doubt that Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon's supporters embrace the LGBTQ+ community.

@DeanW-tp1hn Then give answer. So far the riots have been condemned by the leaders of the Labour Party, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats, the SNP, Sinn Fein and the DUP and even Fine Gael. That's not "far left",

What, exactly, is "our country up against"? What are the threats "we are enduring"? What frightens you so much when you see people marching in support of a ceasfire?

@clemfandango619 That handful were trained. They were not the feral underclass.

@tonyfincham6126 "Gorilla" (sic) being the operative word.

@chrisgibson5267 Remember that, in the comparatively modern period, in 1800 (to be exact) the Kingdom of Kartli-Kakheti was annexed by the Russian Empire. It is precisely to avoid such a total annexation of their territory that the Palestinian people continue to struggle for their land.

frdsg8350 You are incorrect in your assumption. "Gammon" is not a term that I use, much as you do not use punctuation.
2
@Smelly_Minge The current Home Secretary is under the impression that The Guardian is the reading matter of choice for people who eat tofu. That having been said, she also believes that homelessness is a "lifestyle choice".

"Week after week after week thousands of people marched through the streets." NOT ONCE did they torch a library, set fire to a food bank, loot a phone shop, pillage a shoe store or attack a hotel. The Palestinian supporters did none of these things because, unlike the "patriots" they are civilized.

@AuctionDirectFlowers No, I was not, but there is widely available footage of the events in Chinatown, and the story has also been extensively reported in that well known left-wing journal - The Daily Mail. The Mail also reports that after Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon had led his dim-witted, delinquents into Chinatown, he pretty quickly jumped into a taxi and disappeared, leaving them to get on with it.

@barryhill1044 In the 1950s there were the CND marches from Aldermaston. In the 1960s there were huge demonstrations against the war in Vietnam. Twenty years ago there were Stop the War marches against British involvement in Iraq. Much of today's angst is fueled by xenophobia and in the case of this weekend, it was urged on by an unscrupulous Home Secretary.

@clemfandango619 Not entirely. Eldest son into the army; second son into the navy; third son into the church; fourth son off to India or one of the colonies.

@Chichesterfrotesque1001 Thenl don't associate with such people, Dutch.
1
@Chichesterfrotesque1001 Possibly they did not tell you this at your polytechnic, but Shakespeare and Chaucer also used alternative spellings. Both spelling and punctuation, however, settled into generally accepted, and then mandated, forms during the 18th century.

@Loroths Do you really believe that the monosyllabic, fioul mouthed hooligans who were filmed quite literally spitting abuse at the police are "those with concerns for British culture"? "When I hear the word 'culture'...I release the safety on my Browning" - Hanns Johst, from the play Schlageter.

@logicumkapernicus7919 Surely you mean "poorly" written and pretentious "lefty" propaganda, don't you? - Those who live in glass houses.....

@BigRedArrowEqualsTinyPeePee A double space is hardly a major faux pas, and I would dispute your suggestion that anything would have been gained by adding a comma after the word "Guardian". Over-punctuation is a stylistic trick of adolescent writing, although it is preferable to dispensing with punctuation altogether.

@OneWorldGovernment2030-yv3zc Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon's antics yesterday have been reported in a number of different journals, so it is unlikely that they can all be wrong. That having been said, however, why on earth did the idiot lead his hooligans into Chinatown, when the march they so vehemently opposed was making its way from Hyde Park corner down Vauxhall Bridge Road? Are they truly so xenophobic that they cannot distinguish between Arabs and the Chinese?

@sabbracadabra8367 Is there such a thing?
1
@SensibleMoniker Rebut my comments, then.
1
@sabbracadabra8367 Do you have the author(s) name(s); the publisher and the ISBN?

@Nickel1147 Oh dear. somebody who cannot read. I was asked to name something or someone in Britain who I liked. I provided a list of 25 names. There was never any suggestion that the liking had to be mutual, but I am terribly flattered that you believe that I am a person acquaintance of the other 24.
1
@Nickel1147 No, it was in that fount of wokery frequently referred to as The Daily Wail.

@Madoldcatlady Not for a minute. The Guardia, like the Times, The Telegraph and the Financial Times, however, does assume that its readers are relatively competent. That is in stark contrast with, for example, The Sun, which can be read from cover to cover by anyone with a reading age of eight. It is also in contrast with The Daily Express and The Mail, both of which prefer "celebrity" gossip to hard news, and both of which telegraph how their readers are to respond - "fury" generally means that one or two people have expressed mild irritation, while "hilarious" signifies vaguely amusing.

@glennmoreland6457 So you have decided to sneer at ONE name out of a list of twenty five? Here are some more - people I have thought of since the original question was posed:- Dame Judy Dench; Dame Maggie Smith; Danny Boyle; David Crystal; Dev Patel; Edna O'Brien; Fergal Keane; Marcus Rashford; Robert Fisk; The Princess Royal. Now bitch about one of them.

Why?
