That's what seems to amuse some anti migrant individuals unfortunately.

Personally, even as a child, I never even saw the point of symbols of Guy Fawkes being put on a fire.
I thought it pointless and a celebration of barbarism as I got older.
Never liked it or enjoyed it.

I'd never support something like this, nor would want to actually.
Not with the nutcases there are in the World today, who if something like this lights a spark of an idea of their own prejudice, they may act on it.

Pointless divisive madness and thinking, from only more likely sick and prejudiced minds in my view.

Excellent post.

Burning effigies of anyone just seems needlessly divisive and extreme symbolism really.

The people in power - the rich - have convinced a whole bunch of people that Migrants are the root of their problems. It’s the fault of migrants they can’t get jobs, it’s the fault of migrants the country is broke, it’s the fault of migrants that crime is increasing.

Migrants are used as a distraction to point the finger of blame in another direction to the general public don’t blame the government for setting up a system that has broken and one that only ever favours the richest in society.

Unfortunately, many people have fallen for it.
