Racist thugs forming paramilitaries to close ports, attack refugees, intimidate the free press & threaten the RNLI are legitimate concerns but making a sport with known issues regarding violence & wider anti-social behaviour, ban alcohol at pitchside is discriminatory. Give me a fucking break

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

Bad Bunny's global tour didnt include a U.S. date in protest. He also played the Super Bowl. The biggest myth going is there's a choice between people & profits. Nope, you can do both pretty easily. Ed Sheeran chose profits over people. Loser shit.

this is what happens when centrist parties run with the far-right talking points until they’re entirely normalised — the only people who win in that scenario are far right extremists and everyone else gets hurt (yes, every time, trust me, i’ve witnessed many austrian elections)

Dover is one of the most heavily policed places in the UK. It's a two hour's drive from London, where the Met has more significant anti-crowd capacity than any other force in the UK. Letting a group of fascists act as they see fit is a choice they have made One they don't make for peaceful protest
