So who was it causing the trouble.?

He tells me two gangs were facing off.

To be honest, I’ve been in Portugal working for a few days until this afternoon so it’s just been a brief discussion because I was more concerned for his safety than theirs.

Pair of far right extremists

Take a look at some of the nutjobs they align themselves with abroad as well.

Moaning about migrants being the dregs of Europe and Africa. Yet he's got a conviction for armed kidnap & another for instigating riots. Hypocritical muppet. 

I'm sure a lot of folk have lapped it up and thought 'well what a good idea', without looking at the facts.

So were they ‘mainly white guys’ as you said?

That they're extremists.

Who think it's ok to arm themselves and kidnap people. Who align themselves with religious extremists abroad. And who whip up hate & misinformation on social media and encourage people to riot.

We'd all love to see a tougher approach and more collaboration with the French police.

But if people start looking to these two clowns as part of the solution, then we're all fcked.

They'll end up getting locked up so they can portray themselves as martyrs. And people like Gonzo and Boby will lap it up.

Thanks. I know what actually went on. I’ll be interested to hear your version.👍

Don’t think Gonzo will be supporting or defending him Tbf.

Everything I’ve heard him criticise on here in the past.

I used to think the same but it’s miles off the best country in the world. If I am lucky enough to get the chance I’m off.

My company’s head office is in the Netherlands and they allow staff to bring their kids into the office the week before Xmas and they do this black Pete thing. 
 

Pete was a chimney sweep clearing the path for Santa and the black is supposed to represent soot

 

hes not a slave, or a black person or anything else. Generally, I think it’s pretty widely accepted and enjoyed. Any outrage most often comes from outside the Netherlands and point it inwards 

My question is.....wtf has their tradition got to dl with us or anyone else?

Told both my boys, as soon they're old enough and wise enough to get the fuck out of here as quick as possible.

There's better lives out there.

This gaff is only going one way.

I agree with all this but the last sentence applies to every county in the world. Rich entitled people who act above the law and get away with it. 

I don't disagree  but I don't care about any other country

It doesn’t, in my opinion. I think it came to UK attention when pics of Van Nistelrooy surfaced, but you’re right. Their culture is theirs. We shouldn’t give a shit.

It still could be the best country in the world, I am a little disillusioned but I'm now too old to bale out so I'll just keep plodding on and do my best to be British.

Mate, I do ok with my rubbish spelling. If you think that's the base of intelligence, then I can't tell you how numb you come over every day in this little forum

 

Mental midgets like my good self are nought but specks of dust in comparison to your monolithic intellect oh great one.
