Originally posted by hedgehog50 Absolutely, treat all trouble makers firmly. Seems reasonable to me. In the UK, given that there is a very low bar that bans political parties, there really isn't any excuse for militant behaviour. A bit of civil disobedience, but actual violence seems a pointless endeavour. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

I think flu has it beat. I suppose in some ways capitalism might have it indirectly beat as well (deaths from preventable diseases and causes, the arms trade etc). But I'm not going to defend the political dead end of Communism. "One Nation Under God, has turned into One Nation Under the Influence of One Drug" [Link]

Originally posted by jamiemartin721 Violence resulting arrests in London, Birmingham, manchester and liverpool for starters Hasn't that been down to anti fascists fighting them? However, I just like the mission statement. I'm well aware that under this banner all manner of people are attracted. This is why I shy away from groups. 'Who are you and how did you get in here?
