Patriotism

Post Exiled In Surrey »

A flag should be about pride. About unity. About celebrating who we are.That’s not what’s happening right now. These England flags going up everywhere?That’s not patriotism. That’s marking territory. That’s sending a message.And the message is ugly: “This is ours. You don’t belong here.”That isn’t pride. That’s fear. That’s exclusion. That’s racism dressed up as tradition.Real patriotism doesn’t slam the door in someone’s face. Real patriotism says: we are strong enough, proud enough, confident enough to welcome others in. To share our values — values of fairness, decency, tolerance — the values that have always made Britain worth being proud of.When you turn the flag into a weapon, you betray it. You betray our history. You betray the very idea of Britain.Because the truth is this: our flag should say we belong together. Not you stay out.

No mate. The Birmingham ban is a real one. The one you are referring to is made up. 

In any event, I'm not sure how any alleged racism in an Usraeli football team would be a reason for state-approved anti-Semitism in Birmingham. Can you join up those dots for us?

Thursday will see the formal surrender of the City of Birmingham to the forces of Islam. Despite a load of huffing and puffing by the government, Muslim activists in Birmingham have succeeded in instructing the West Midlands Police and Aston Villa FC to ban Jews from the Villa v Maccabi Tel Aviv game. The institutionally anti-Semitic police probably didn't need much instructing.

Your town or city or football club is next.

not fuming no, I tend to wait for the news and not bear down of a forum bleating gleefully it wasn't a terrorist/migrant attack.

could be it was a child of a immigrant who happens to a believer of the 'religion of peace' that said, I'm probably speculating.

you lefties don't give a fuck about the incident, it's who did/didn't do it that matters... bragging rights, huh.
  
It's very interesting how this thread has gone from absolute outrage when you all thought it was a migrant doing a terrorist attack to quiet as fuck once it became apparent it was one bloke who is British. If I was a suspicious type I might suspect that some of you are fucking hypocrites.

If he or anyone else was desperate for it to happen then it would have happened long ago soon after the suicide attacks in 2005, the 7/7 mass bombings, the beheading of Soldier Lee Rigby on our streets, or the attempted terror attack in 2016, Manchester Arena bombing, Westminster Bridge and Parliament attacks, London Bridge and Borough Market attacks, Parsons Green Station, Ames MP attack, Southport attack, Manchester Synagogue attack, last week's attack. 20 fucking years of this shit we've all had to put up with without so far retaliated in the hope our Governments would finally show leadership and make us safe.

If anything Pub Bigot and the vast majority of this nation have so far been extremely tolerant and patient resisting the urge to kick off, yet you are determined to paint him and others out to be something people want even though it's taken all this time to get to this sad state of affairs...

It'll take a generation possibly to get over it and reverse the trend it's been going in since the turn of the millennium. Mass casualties etc has become normalised because of our gutless self loathing Britian/Western hating Politicians. That does rely heavily on the people voting extremely wisely for the next few general elections however. It starts with Reform and it's there's to fuck it up. Finger's crossed that doesn't happen otherwise we could well be screwed long in to this Century as well. A lot at stake but it's not terminal, yet...

No other explanation for such a fuck off scale response. They (sadly) train for this shit.

2 Air Ambulances, scores of Ambulances and Police cars, a number of armed Counter Terrorism Police (clue's in the name) on the platform but let's hold our fucking horses and not believe it's anything other than Terror-related..

For a bit more context, Peterborough has a high presence of Muslims living there which was the last stop the Train was at shortly before leaving southbound on this LNER Service.

Only seeing talk of a single attacker, could just as easily be mental health given the description. Havent read anywhere reputable reporting about his snack bar preferences.
Well, the police have arrested two people. Perhaps one was just a fare-dodger

Yeah, it's definitely got that kind of feel to it. Bloody fare dodgers, swinging their huge knives about stabbing many people randomly all misunderstood and shit.

Fuck knows why the Emergency Services overreacted so much, as well as closing the busy train line down for the night. 🤷‍♂️

Eye witness at the scene thinks it was 12 people stabbed by at least 1 black fella he saw. Sky also saying 2 men have been arrested.
