Two tweets from opposite sides......

Responding to "Protestors who torn down the statue of a slave trader aren't "thugs". They did us all a favour in a country that continues to glorify Empire".....
"n fact, a country that doesn't just 'glorify Empire', it *participates* in Empire. The whole point about the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, about our arms industry and political/media system, is that they are in support of Empire *now*."

"People are going to be protesting in England today over George Floyd but when someone literally bombed a concert full of children we were told not to look back in anger."
