I asked them, and Andy had already noted several probabilities, so I added a couple more - woke and Khan - that had been mentioned to me.

I didn't ask in the level of detail you seem to want - I didnt expect the Spanish Inquisition, noone does - but if I had to guess I'd say ULEZ would be one major source of grievance. That seems to be something that stirs passionate responses in some quarters in the form of destroying the cameras. not in me I would add as a greenish non driver. (In case you dont know, ULEZ is predominantly a London thing - and a few more places operating CAZ's such as Birmingham, Sheffield etc - where vehicles that are not compliant with emissions levels have to pay a surcharge for entering the "zone")

If you want to know more I recommend a form of generative AI of your choice, but regardless you wouldnt believe the facts if the didnt align to your own alt-facts which underpin your own narrative, so Im not wasting time on your issues regarding something that impacts me only fractionally more than it impacts you simply based on proximity.
Sorry GP, but that is a quite laughable response. You and AF alike throw in these claims time and time again and then run off chuckling, ?that?s put a spanner in the works?.

You, and only you, cited Khan as a likely unifying factor amongst the Unite the Kingdom participants. Likewise AF chucks in some half baked notion about an anonymous area of Derby representing what he means by ?we want our country back?, but when asked to qualify/substantiate your contributions you both duck out, quite unable to do so and, in your case, babbling on about a Monty Python joke from fifty odd years ago.

I admit I know little about Khan - Swale seems to know more - but I know plenty about various areas of Derby. So instead of running away, why not back up your suggestions. You may be right or you and AF might just be spouting those ?alternative facts? ie?more falsehoods.
