gamezone07 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Sheffield is still a progressive city, as indeed is South Yorkshire as a region, Labour increased its majorities in most seats, so why does Sheffield Forum have so many right wingers posting on the site? I'm not saying they don't have the right to do so, but why do they seem to dominate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonzo77 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Anyone seen the videos floating round social media of the anti austerity protests? Looks like the propaganda machine is in full flow! A totally peaceful protest was marching away from downing street when the Met Police waded in and began pulling people from the crowd, turning the protest into something it wasn't. You can bet your bottom dollar that the news (if it reports it at all) won't be reporting it like that. It'll be all about how the protesters turned on the police!! Next move by Mr wooden face, make protesting illegal? After he's abolished the Human Rights Act, had his 7% pay rise backdated, implemented TTIP, destroyed the countryside with HS2 and recorded all our phone calls, texts and social media messages! I love living in a "free" country! I love being a consumer first and a human second! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinfoilhat Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Sounds awful. What did you see when you took part in the protests? Did you video anything yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geared Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 People are protesting the Tory government outside Downing Street. I'm sure there's a way this can be resolved fairly and democratically. May I suggest we simply put it to a vote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were probably arresting people that had been seen committing offences earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bloke Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 As long as my vote will actually count!! A sentiment no doubt shared by many Tories in South Yorkshire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salou4 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Why don't you move to North Korea? My sentiments exactly. Of course, you might get shot by anti-aircraft guns if you fall asleep during a meeting, but at least you won't have to put up with The Daily Mail. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-32716749 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny5 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 June 20th, that's the big one! I've booked my place! Sounds good. Do you think there will be a riot? That would be beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
