I don’t know shit about politics. All I know is that in the UK the Labour party won, and the Conservative party lost.

I read some protestors are protesting against racism. What is this about? Protesting against new party that just won? I thought the Labour party was left-wing, meaning they are more on the social-equality side? I’m lost.

    Weirdos whipped up into a frenzy about “forriners stealing benefits” by farage and his far right party

    ed. Asylum seekers in hotels etc have been here for years, well before the new government came in. Its only since labour came into power the far right have decided to be violent. At no point did they ever care, until labour won and farage didn’t get seated. weirdo musko has also been posting a lot of hate speech and bullshit, which foments further anger and violence.

    Anecdotally from some article I read, on average the protesters rioters 40+ year old white men who you would find in wetherspoons 6 pints in on a wednesday morning
