O/T:- ⚠️Impressed with the leadership [The UK Party Politics Thread]

[BigFatPie]

Sometimes BFP I despair of people, a bereaved and traumatised woman makes a stupid tweet and realises how stupid it is and deletes it but gets a totally inappropriate 31 month sentence. Do you really believe she is dangerous and was really inciting mass murder?

She incited people to set fire to hotels on July 29th and that?s exactly what they did on August 4th. Of course she was dangerous, demonstrably so. Her bereavement was taken into account when sentencing was passed as mentioned in this very good explanation of her case here;

She pleaded guilty to an offence that carries a maximum sentence of 7 years. Previous racist messages on her WhatsApp were also taken into account as was her failure to post any messages of sympathy for the Southport victims.

I do wonder whether you and others would be so concerned about this sentence if the person involved was a Muslim and they were inciting rioters to set fire to a hotel full of white people. Throw away the key might be the more common sentiment.

Well done for throwing in the race card.

Well done for throwing in the race card.

For the second time, I'll bet he has the new Snow White film on loop.

Well done for throwing in the race card.

Hadn't Lucy Connolly already done that?

Thanks for answering for BFP again although this time you were a little slow.

BFP appears to be saying that if you think Lucy Connollys stance is too harsh you are a racist.

This is usually a lazy virtue signalling attempt to silence people that normally fails.

Not much anyone can disagree with here.

GBeebies appears to have addled the minds of what potentially could be reasonable individuals and turned them into boring angry reactionaries.

The zone truly has been flooded with climate-denying race-bait 5h!te. Just as Bannon desired.

Thank you for showing what I mean Mapperleypie in your quote below.

Well done for throwing in the race card.

The whole case is literally centred around race. She said it herself, in the tweet that helped to convict her. These arent difficult concepts to grasp.

Thanks explaining the concept BFP it is much appreciated although we know that already., it was racist and a very stupid post.

However where you threw the race card in was not about Lucy Connolly but against people who think her sentence was too severe.

It seems the French navy can detain British fishing boats but not boat loads of migrants, the 'Hundred years war' has never really ended.

Unless the rules have changed, the Royal Navy has similar powers to defend our fisheries, which I think is a good thing generally. In the UK, 'boat loads of migrants' would come under the scrutiny of Border Force, rather than the senior service.
