The environment secretary George Eustice has just come out and said that the BLM is a political movement so maybe time to stop the posturing.
    Claw , I've recently started listening and reading content from a guy named Paul Embery .

    Paul is a Labour Party member and was up until recently a big presence in the Fire Brigade union , the reason he isn't now is explained in the video I've linked .

    I'd like to invite yourself and our posters to listen what he has to say , an hour of your time .

    This guy has had all the racist associations thrown his way but listen carefully what he has to say and if you think he's racist , a little Englander or just narrow minded I'd like someone such as Albert Hirst to make the case .

    What it actually means in my opinion is that the Millwall support are thoroughly pyssed off of having minority causes rammed down their throat at every opportunity .

    They are probably pyssed off as well that if they don't fall in to line and accept their players taking the knee the liberal left will out them as racists and bigots which is how this is getting played out .

    Bang on animal,
    I’ve been looking for the best way to have my say on this but struggled for the right words and you’ve just done it for me.

    The first time they ‘took the knee’ at a football match I thought fair dues they want to show their backing for racial equality but as it went on each week I said to my mate this is going to backfire because when the fans are let back in I can’t see them staying silent and by doing this week in week out they are going to do more harm than good.

    Fair play to Millwall for making a stance. They were always going to get some flak for it and be branded narrow minded racists unfortunately. However, they've made their point and hopefully will continue to do so. Other clubs should follow suit.

    The taking of the knee has served its purpose for me and been used well within football to bring awareness towards racism in the last 6 months but it's time is up. There's suffering and persecution in every walk of life no matter what your skin colour. Do they get the same coverage as BLM?

    The rainbow laces is an annual thing again using sport to raise awareness. Does it mean that we should be doing this every week from now onwards? A tell thi nar, it wunt surprise me.

    Perhaps the BLM campaign would be done better if it was used annually like the rainbow laces campaign. Fairness and equality isn't about having a monopoly on publicity or awareness campaigns.

    We recognise the war victims and veterans every November. The thousands upon thousands of deaths of caucasians who were sent to their doom on the World War 1 battlefields or the execution of 3 million innocent Jews in the second world war.

    I'm fekkin sick of folk being frightened to speak out in fear of being branded a racist. It's gone beyond a joke. If the world is to ever live in harmony then we must move forward with an open mind and learn from the past rather than use past injustices to brand folk who aren't racists as racists. BLM sadly isn't about equality in my opinion. All Lives Matter

    All this booing at the Tekkin the Knee Campaign in football is diverting attention away from the Rainbow Laces Gay Week Campaign (3 to 9 Dec) in football

    A can't keep up.

    Doggy .

    People in communities such as ours and in poorer parts of south east London are fecked off to the back nackers of having these minority issues rammed down our throats .

    Not only are we getting it rammed down our throats but more importantly to speak out is to be labeled racist , bigot or homophobic if you said owt abart the rainbow campaign this weekend across football .

    If the Millwall fans didn't much care for their players taking the knee then how on earth were they meant to show their displeasure , the only tool they had in the box was to boo given nobody would give them a platform in the media for them to make their case .

    They booed , they didn't chant racist songs , they didn't boo black players they booed an organisation which they feel doesn't belong inside a football stadium .

    What's rattling the liberal left is that the years of silence are over and people are fighting back now and they will not be quiet .

    So out comes the race card to try and silence you into submission , even their own club are on the back foot now through pressure from the usual suspects .

    When somebody speaks out and represents the white working class in this country , acknowledges their struggles , their communities , law and order etc they may be more sympathetic to other causes .

    We live in hope .

    Next Week is P ussy Awareness Week (PAW)

    Football clubs are supporting this by placing a raw fish fillet at the base of each corner flag.

    Please respect.
