Making the news today....

So this was on the wireless earlier, very timely. One of subjects was the initial source of the lies about the Southport attacker being a Muslim immigrant with an Arabic name. The Times has done an investigation and tracked it down to a middle aged mother of three from Cheshire. Very comfortably off, living in £1.5M house. Not what you'd expect maybe. She was already quite well known in the anti-lockdown, anti-net zero, (Climate change denier), space though. Not such a surprise. Those two were her bread and butter apparently. The initial claim was then jumped on by all the bedroom dwellers and spread around like wildfire on social media, where it was picked up by all the wrong people. And here we now are. Ain't social media great?!

How the paper approached its reporting on Huw Edwards.

 

Have a listen @Johnsond It starts at about 10 mins in. You might be interested to hear about the provenance of that "information going around" that you saw at the start of all this, that got you all worked up into this current frenzy. This is the story in The Times, I've not read it though as it's behind a payroll. Maybe you can.

I’m in no frenzy 42, this whole thing is now very much like the Covid farce thread, you guys can’t cope with anyone having a different view or opinion. The info I got was spot on ref the attacker. As for that very very convenient Climate,  Covid, Net Zero denier link 👍👍yep got to spot on facts eh

Few days ago Mark I drove up west gate road and carried on up to  the A1 😳there’s not many white faces up there, anyone kicking off up there is probably gonna dip out, you do realise what a lot of these barbers and car washes etc are functioning as im sure. 

Plenty white people and brown people in the West End. Not many visible racists though, I guess that the 'silent majority' the far right speaks of is as much of a load of shite as their philosophy is:

In the photo are they the ones that Robinson, Farage, Social Media and so on had called on to go to visit the local mosque, perhaps with a couple of bricks in hand? Or the ones whose social media had suggested to peacefully take to the streets?

 

Lets check on 2 tier policing levels and the opened road... guess it wasn't the group who had advertised in advance they were going to do some violent disordering and rioting then?

The ones across the road were the Waxy Lemon fans who had been stashing weapons on the route up the West End. The people in the foreground are just people who don't want nazis on their streets. 

Funnily enough, the building that the fash were planning on attacking used to be police station. 

The fash don't tend to do well in Newcastle. 

Big 'protests' planned by them in town this weekend, that might get a bit heated.

Not a problem brother Mark, next time I go through there on an average day I’ll record it from one end of the road in question to the other. Mark I’ve no issues with law abiding people of any colour who integrate and respect the culture and law of this land. As I’ve stated from day one to the left on here everyone should be dealt with equally and fairly. My opinion is that does not happen in this country.
