But what if all these migrants move to Briton Ferry!

Aye all outside Neath_Jacks house,you’d soon see how left these leftie twats are.
Wait until they all start dropping Gary Abletts outside his front door and eating his dog.

Glastonbury 2025 review: Context is everything... | The Somerset Leveller | In Print & Online

FOUR decades ago, one of the biggest mass arrests in English legal history took place. It happened on June 1, 1985, in a field around seven miles from Stonehenge. That […]

Nothing ‘edgy’, nothing real-life, nothing hard hitting and lived experience about being a ‘singer of songs’ or a 'player of strings' etc.

I guess that is why Blur’s guitarist Graham Coxon stated that he preferred to listen to ‘normal’ people, with ‘normal’ opinions down the pub. More relevant?

And thus it came to pass, that despite bygone decades, nobody came along to (Paul McCartney) “Give Ireland Back To The Irish” etc.​

The likes of Kneecap, Bob Vylan and others will never change the course of history, or what happens on the battlefield in far flung places, and I guess the Israeli IDF have more serious things to worry about, because I reckon 'Pascal Robinson-Foster' from 'Ipswich' is hardly their worst nightmare? LOL!

Convince me what they've done wrong then.

They encourage 30,000 people to chant alone to death to IDF.

 

[Pompeyjack]

Both things are true. Hamas have committed unspeakable atrocities. Everyone condemns them. Israel is currently committing unspeakable atrocities to an entire population. The world mostly turns a blind eye.

As proud Welshpeople how would we feel if the English army came into our national Eisteddfod and

British army surely? A quick call to Jemima Nicholas would sort the Saes out anyway

You could have just typed “I’m getting old” and saved the rest

They are appalling and earning a fortune for damaging their deluded followers ears, that's nothing to do with age, anyway you're not far behind me

Music and especially Glastonbury has been political and about making points. Long may that continue. Just because the ‘less educated’ struggle with that, it’s on them. Fuck em.

Never seen so many right wing gammons be up in arms about a music festival before, and that was before Kneecap and the other chap done their thing.

There is a red line though

 

[Pompeyjack]

I agree with your first two sentences. However my point was a different one as I was referring to how the political statement is made and not the underlying message itself.

My reference to the less educated is not about with the right disagreeing with the left, instead I am talking about increasing the possibility of folk taking matters into their own hands and going out to kill or maim MP’s and political figures.

Sensible.

Isn't kneecap a reference to an IRA punishment ritual?

Yep

If the British hadn’t invaded Ireland, there’d be no such thing as kneecapping or the IRA.

 

[Neath_Jack]

There is a red line though

Who says where the line is? What about the line for the ongoing slaughter of innocent women, children and men? Where’s that line?

 

[Darran]

Oh ffs can’t everyone stop arguing over this bollox when innocent people all over the world are being needlessly slaughtered.
Israel are massive cunts,Hamas are massive cunts and the Vylans are cunts but nowhere near as big as Israel or Hamas.

Grow up and stop trying to justify this genocide,murder,slaughter of innocent people.

Yes, let’s all stop taking about the genocidal actions of a country. Let’s talk about cheap trick instead.
