I don’t think they should.They’ll look as pathetic as the anti Trump protesters who were a laughing stock when they did it.

Yeah he kind of walked into this by approving the Trump one.

I do think it’s childish though.

That people think he is a bit of a knob basically. Nothing overly deep

Wonder if the same company made both blimps? Bonus year for single use plastics.

£58,000 for 2hrs too, was the counter protest worth it?... the message seems a little disjointed tbh. And the nose?...Antisemitism?

Mitchell 30-08-2018 05:25 PM

Pmsl his response was rhat yellow isn’t his colour :joker:

I suppose it takes the focus of the murders which seem to be happening daily now in Khans London.

And the reduction in the police numbers have nothing to do with the rise in crime?... there's your focus.

Could someone attempt to explain how who the mayor has been in recent months could affect the crime rate so dramatically?...

arista 30-08-2018 05:55 PM

It's Make London Safe Again
Campaign Fella.
behind the Blimp.

Paid for by Crowd Funding.

If people were more civilised and stopped murdering other people, then the Police cuts would be a good thing.

And with rising poverty how is that possible? Higher rates of socioeconomic deprivation = higher crime. That's how society works, people essentially become considerably less 'civilised' over a protracted period of time.

Again how would who the mayor has been over recent months effectively immediately reverse that trend?

Has he brought back stop and search yet, or is that still racist?

Yeah when I'm having a bad month financially, a knife just appears in my hand and I just have to stick it in someone.

I'm not going to waste my time explaining sociological perspectives, educate yourself.

So many creatively starved folk in London... though art focusing around politics is really a nice output... the only problem is it is usually one-directional if there are gallery showings, etc on those matters, so it can feel like a limited showing...

I think a part of the problem we have today is that people are no longer sharing and integrating ideas... so can't really nip the more extreme ideas in the bud if the only people allowed in those circles are sympathizers... after all, you and me are always right and nobody can ever disagree with me&you... as the culture has gone... it's like we're all Kanye...
