Grenfell community fear 'Day of Rage' protest could descend into riots

:facepalm:

looks like the SWP placard makers will be on double time again

Left wing campaigners are planning a “day of rage” to coincide with the Queen’s Speech this week in protest over the conditions they claim led to the Grenfell Tower blaze and the deaths of at least 58 people.

Militant groups are planning to march on Parliament on Wednesday in a show of anger at the Government’s austerity policies they say led to the tragedy.

Led by the Movement for Justice By Any Means Necessary - formed in 1995 by a number of Marxist groups - campaigners are urging protesters to “walk out of school, take the day off, call in sick, strike”.

Advertising the event the movement’s Facebook page declares: “We must escalate our actions to take down this rotten government, which has lost all authority to govern.”

The shadow chancellor and Momentum and Corbyn have been stirring this up. They want to see riots on the streets, and Momentum are providing the thugs to initiate it.

[Livia]

The Socialist Worker right up the front when it comes to Incitement to Riot. As usual. And while they're "demonstrating", they might want to think about this:

"A row has broken out between Labour’s new Kensington MP Emma Dent Coad and her Conservative predecessor over the Grenfell Tower fire.

Ms Dent Coad, below, has accused Tory-led Kensington and Chelsea council of failures that led to the blaze, claiming “poor-quality materials and construction standards have played a part in this hideous and unforgivable event”.

But as a councillor she was on Kensington and Chelsea’s housing scrutiny committee, which oversees “community safety issues”, until May 2014.

A 2014/15 report, in which she is named, says the committee scrutinised work on Grenfell Tower.

and alluding to the fact that there were people in there who perhaps were not meant to be in there officially

Most people on the left abhor the SWP and encourage those who don't know their history to not take placards from them at protests.

Can we please stop assuming these demonstrations are all organised by them when they're not? They are being hijacked

Agreed and WHO would call a peaceful protest 'Day of Rage' !!!! Some poor guy got beaten up yesterday as the mob thought he was a councellor, and he was a volunteer helper,this is just an excuse for thugs to get out their and do damage and probably get a free TV,,FFS get a grip people.

BIB, I can't blame the people (which will be more than just the left) being left angry after the Tories were so cheap that they ended up taking people's lives, even if it wasn't intentionally they did play with fire (literally) and they got burned.

nah theres far bigger numbers involved in violent marches on the left than even the far right in this country

[Tom4784]

And so begins the Hillsborough treatment of the victims by the tabloids. Papers like The Sun won't be able to resist confusing these issues by making out that those SWP pricks are representing the victims in order to demonise them. As soon as the government starts to face heat over their complacency in allowing illegal cladding to burn hundreds of people to death their lapdog papers will leap to their defense. The silence on the true number of victims is testament to this.

i think there is clear misunderstanding here.

Rent-a-mob is being mobilised. The shadow chancellor along with Momentum have called for a million people to get on the streets and protest. This isn't about the poor folks affected by the fire, this is about cynical opportunism, encouraged by Corbyn being used to subvert democracy in this country. I urge everyone to open their eyes.

So do I, open your eyes and see the country in managed decline, the public have a right to protest we did for the poll tax when we felt our rights were being infringed upon... What is different now?

The public has essentially been kettled for years, austerity and media demonisation of the poor and vulnerable has created a pressure vacuum.
Something had to give, the conservative campaign was the catalyst for this shift in the main, Corbyn just became the public mouthpiece.

If the public lose faith in the establishment then for me they are going to analyse what is being sold to them with a more critical eye, the country was misjudged which is why increasing numbers are aware of failings as well as inadequare responses to issues that directly affect the public as a whole.

So for all the years of division it's been shown to fail as communities band together, that is not a subversion of democracy.

Was Theresa May?

She was on the committee that oversaw the project. Her name is on the report. But the Left is now so used to deflecting and claiming innocence when it is actually ineptitude, it's a way of life now. The Left is probably dizzy from all the spinning. According to Corbyn supporters, everything on the Right is evil and everything on the left is all rainbows and pretty flowers.

And for the record, Seeing Corbyn's grinning face in Kensington the day after the fire as he cynically used the whole terrible incident for his own promotion is actually sickening. But then, lets not forget that he forged his name through his support of terrorism and now that fact follows him around. Not with his blinded supporters, but with the rest of the country.

[Vicky.]

There was an anti austerity protest organised before the fire happened. Owen Jones was going on about it constantly on facebook ages before the fire.

I think this probably will end in riots. Especially if the council keep withholding answers from people.

[Kizzy]

or its just a band of bad losers as per?

It may be sidelined as the noisy minority as per that doesn't detract from logic behind the protest.

[Livia]

It'll descend into the usual unhelpful mini-riot once the Socialist Worker and various other deadbeat organisations muscle in. Sadly, no one listens to the actual reason for the protest once it turns nasty. And it will.

[Jack_]

I don't know how many more times this has to be pointed out before people on here and outside ~get it~, but democracy does not begin and end with an election or referendum. It also encompasses the right to protest and the right to (yours and others') beloved free speech. The election took place - Labour lost, and so did the Conservatives. People are entitled to protest whenever and about whatever they like. I abhor the likes of the EDL and Britain First, but I would never suggest that they should not be allowed to demonstrate about something they believe in. That's democracy. Not one where we all put up and shut up for five years in between elections because we all must bow down to the government's every word. How absurd.

The Conservatives did not win. Look, I realise the Tories are feeling a bit bruised after losing their majority in an election they thought they'd crush the opposition in, but if I - as a Labour supporter - can admit that they indeed lost this election, the least others can do is acknowledge that the Conservatives didn't win either. We have a hung parliament, to win an election you need to gain a majority in the House of Commons. Nobody did, and no coalitions or confidence and supply deals will mean they 'won' this election. Just to reiterate - people are entitled to protest whenever they like, lord knows those who were anti-EU let us know about it for twenty years.

really who did win?

last time I looked TM was in no. 10


and as is always said, people can protest without masks, and violence


However it takes a particularly nasty type to think to protest in London this week, after the month that the police, fire and ambulance and business and residents have had, is a good idea?

Being the incumbent government doesn't mean you won an election. It's called a hung parliament for a reason, not a 'hung but oh wait the Conservatives have the most seats so they won parliament'. If they won this election, why has there already been moves behind the scenes to oust Mayhem? Why were Tory ministers and MPs deriding the campaign only minutes after the exit poll? If they won, surely it was a fantastic campaign and she's a wonderful leader?

Most people do protest without masks and violence. Again, often groups like the SWP - whom are chastised by many on the left - try to hijack these demonstrations for their own personal gain, but they are in the minority. For what it's worth, the anti-Tory/DUP demonstration was organised before the fire, and the protest at the council building had very little to do with anyone in particular - more the understandable and righteous anger of the residents of Kensington. And sorry, but the 'police need a break' line doesn't wash with me - for starters it's their job, secondly I'd argue that those on the left care more about their profession since they don't want their force and resources cut to the bone, and lastly - you might be surprised, many police officers are quietly in support of these demonstrations. After all, in a roundabout way, they're protesting on their behalf too.

Public services and business are as affected as anyone, TM has a very shallow grip on no10 due solely to her 'deal' to the DUP (of which we have heard very little). The brexit negotiations have thankfully made this a priority, will she still be there by Christmas? If she can't broker a deal with the 2 factions involved in Ireland how the heck is negotiating 27 countries going to go? :/

As fewer that 50% of the population voted Tory, I'm not sure how you can be so confident that the rest (that is to say, more than half) don't hate the Tories :shrug:. I mean I'm not saying that all of them definitely do, just that you have absolutely no evidence to the contrary :idc:

Didn't say anything about who is or isn't the leader or who was or wasn't elected; just pointing out that your logic of "They won therefore most people must like them" is entirely false... as you don't need (anywhere near) 50% of the popular vote to win an election in the UK.

Don't ignore my comments about the Left... I don't ignore yours about the right.

How long do you think things take in the planning stages? Do you think they organised the upgrading in a weekend? I thought you knew about local politics.

If it was rational I would, but it was the usual generalisation so no I'll pass thanks.

You presume too much liv that's your problem. It isn't the fault of one Councillor on a panel in the preliminary planning stages of a project that can be held accountable for the failure of contractors and surveyors to comply with building regulations.

You are accusing me personally of using this tragedy to score political points by criticising the lack of effort following the fire?
Far from embarrassed I am proud to do that, I am proud to see that. There has to be some accountability and I hope the pressure grows to facilitate that end.

I hope that makes my position crystal, be they left right or centre I would expect justice to be the least anyone would want.

[Vicky.]

Still no truth from the authorities about how many died. Is there any wonder there is a chance of riots? This is a ****ing disgrace and honestly, I would be out with the protestors if anyone I knew was 'missing' still and noone would acknowledge it. 400+ people lived there...150 or so accounted for and the rest seemingly ignored. Absolutely disgraceful.

Also if what the firemen have been saying about the government trying to get the 'death by fire' figures down then thats a disgrace too. Apparently anyone who jumped wouldn't count in the figures, anyone who dies in hospital rather than being burnt alive...all so more of the firefighting budget can be cut away. I am almost ashamed to be part of this country right now. Where cost cutting (thats not even needed) is quite literally killing people.

They can't confirm that the missing are dead until the have absolute proof. Given it was a fire, and that the area is very difficult to search, it could take a very long time, and some will never be confirmed.

Its very distressing for relatives, but if the authorities jumped to wrong conclusions it would be even worse.

Everyone feels for those affected, and yes, many have a right to be angry, but that wave of sympathy is being used by others to further their own more sinister agendas and that should not be supported under any circumstances, and if need be, I will also be on the streets demonstrating to protect our democracy from these thugs

Let them compartmentalise the rightful anger of the people for allowing a deathtrap to exist more like.

They aren't dripfeeding the number of deaths like this out of consideration for anything other than themselves since the government ****ed up considerably with Grenfell. We won't get the actual triple digit figure we all know to be true for weeks or maybe even months down the line because the government doesn't want to reveal how badly they ****ed up while the public are still outraged.

We'll only get the full scope once the papers get bored and the public forgets. That's why people are mad, the government are sweeping the dead under the ****ing carpet to save face.
