I’m not suggesting that they do.

They obviously don’t.

My issue, is with the likely double standard in terms of response to the behaviour of the protester.

If a member of the public was to slam a beverage or an egg over the head of as I said, a Sarah Hanson Young type figure, do you genuinely believe outlets such as The Guardian would be applauding that behaviour as an positive and effective means of protest?

I for one doubt it. And I would almost guarantee SHY and Di Natale would be wanting the individual charged.

You either condemn aggressive physical contact between politicians and the public, or you don’t.

If you can’t see the slippery slope the normalisation of such behaviour is liable to lead us down, that’s a real shame.

This ought to be a bi-partisan position.

HY is a parliamentary politician. Yaxley Lennon represents the street thug movement.

It’s the sand pit he plays in. As shown by his reaction. He can’t cry and ask for police protection when he gets a milkshake thrown on him.

Anning? He’s happy to surround himself with neo nazi and white nationalist thugs who are violent.

Yaxley Lennon (as you insist upon referring to him as for some reason?) moved away from his EDL/BNP/Hooligan, street protest roots years ago. In fact the infiltration of the EDL by Neo Nazi elements served as the catalyst for him leaving and beginning his relationship with Majid Nawaz and his Quilliam foundation.

Which I’m almost certain you would be aware of.

I’m not suggesting Tommy is an angel. He isnt. Nor are many of those attracted to his message. But if you think he simply represents the ‘street thug’ element of the British public....I think you grossly under estimate his appeal to working class Briton’s im afraid.

He’s not representing class politics.

He’s appealing solely to violent racial resentment. It’s just below the surface, as the swinging showed.

It's interesting that you appear to consistently exhibit a keen observational capacity when it comes to the political agendas of others, and yet you also appear to be blissfully unaware of it's existence in yourself.

Psilocybe cubensis will be appearing on the landscape in the upcoming weeks. I suggest you spend a day hunting them.:thumbsu:

You really don’t believe Tommy is tapping into the concerns (call them resentments if you must) of working class Briton’s?

You truly believe his appeal is driven purely by a simple one dimensional lust for blood and violence?

As for the “swinging”...how about I come up to you in the street and suddenly slam a milkshake against the side of your head?

Fairly sure your initial reflex action toward me, isn’t going to be to give me a hug.

He's much smarter than this crap, he's just doesn't know it yet.

I don't know where you stand. Maybe you might never escape it.

Hence why I asked him why he pretends to be ignorant.

Where I stand?

If we allow violence toward politicians, or political candidates, to be normalised within our political process, even the smashing of milkshakes over people, then the bar slowly gets lower and lower, until people start murdering people in the street.

This gets explained away via the 'slippery slope fallacy' with no credence to it actually being likely and beginning to actually happen.

Trans-racialism / trans-speciesism is a perfect example.

What was the immediate response to Egg Boy’s attack on Anning?

Egg Boy being lucky and not having his neck snapped.

Violence begets violence.

I can see that you're a big issues person.

Not only do I support the hurling of milkshakes, I recommend it as a voting mechanism.

I could give a rats arse about the milkshake.

It’s the fact we both know, the act would elicit outrage, rather than celebration, amongst the left if it was one of there people being aggressively slimed in public.
