SheffieldForum Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 I’ve had to remove about four pages of just…. Bickering! If you can’t get on just put each other on ignore. Gove over with the thread derailments and winding each other up, it’s getting tedious. 1 3 Sheffield Forum | The Sheffield Guide | The Sheffield Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Bundy Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 13 hours ago, Mister M said: You know how Farage, Tice and Musk have been whining about 'Two Teir' criminal justice system where white rioters treated more harshly than non-white counter-protesters in the last few weeks, well the Royal United Services Institute has said that "rightwing violence “is often classified as mere thuggery” by politicians, prosecutors and the security services. Equivalent acts by Islamists would “swiftly be labelled as terrorism”, it says in an article in the Guardian.": ‘Two-tier’: UK treats far-right attacks less harshly than Islamist violence, says thinktank | UK security and counter-terrorism | The Guardian Well, to be fair" Far right violence"" not right wing violence".....let's get that straight for a start....are highly unlikely to be blowing you to smithereens or slashing kids to death so yes I can see why one differs from the other. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
