Ludicrous. No you haven't. And they apply equally.
So now it's all down to interpretation as to what is and isn't a hate crime (or incitement to commit)
It defines it and is no different to many other laws that require judgement by the prosecutor.
, and as the establishment seems to be wishy washy liberal, it's not difficult to see why those of us on the right (ie pro-brexit these days) have more to moan about than those on the left.

After decades of screaming accusations of isms against anyone who isn't a socialist, they take a different view when they're caught actually doing it.

After 3 years of trying to stop democracy they're calling for democracy in the conservative elections.
After shutting down any comedian who slightly offends their political dogma, they want free speech for comedians who call for horrible violence against BREXIT .
Every time you do that you display either innocent or wilful ignorance of what our democracy is. It is a REPRESENTATIVE democracy, and Parliament has been doing what our constitution expects it to. It cannot get behind a solution because there is ambiguity about what every politician calls "the will of the people" which generally means "MY version". What kind of democracy do you want? If Mps are supposed to slavishly follow their constituents Rees-Mogg and the DUP are finished. Do you want a democracy where politicians suspend Parliament to get what they want done? Really?
After decades of calling everyone else racist , they get proven to be anti Semitic
Who are "they" who were "proven to be anti-semitic"? If you mean the Labour party what does it have to do with us here?
but their response is typified by someone claiming I'm anti Semitic because I criticised ONE non practising Jew after spending years arguing with the same people for fairness towards Israel and Jews in general.

How much longer is society going to give in to their childish tantrums and tricks in an effort to defend the indefensible ?

You know very well that the concept of a representative democracy, which is perfectly legitimate, doesn't extend to blocking the outcomes of elections or Referrendums .

They may vote as they please upon matters which come before the house in the normal course of business , without having to reflect the views of voters, but once they have sought directions from the electorate upon a specific matter , they are bound to act upon it.

This is straightforward and very clear . Anything else is cheating.

Some people are surprised the 'it's just a joke' defence doesn't work when people call you a cunt, for being a cunt. Carl Benjamin case in point.

Just a reminder when asked about the former Brexit Party Ltd chairman's opinions about white genocide he called them 'intemperent'

Police will take no action after Jo Brand's joke about Farage.

The correct decision, and hilarious how the right-wing mob on here are happy with comments about raping a Member of Parliament, but get all high and mighty about a throwaway line about chucking battery acid over a rabble-rousing racist.

If its's ok to make jokes about acid attacks on all rabble-rousing racists. So let's hope the BBC allow jokes about attacking Corbyn, Lammy, Abbott etc, etc, etc; what with Labour being the natural home of racist filth.

Nah, I think UKIP and the BNP are the nailed-on racist parties, given their policies.
This desperate painting of all Labour MPs and voters as anti-Semites is ridiculous, but I can see why the far right are in full-on deflection mode…

Given the stack of evidence against Labour, it's pretty clear who the racist vermin are. Pretending to be liberal, while spreading hatred against "Zionists", is proof of the fascist agenda of Corbyn etc.

People have been throwing stuff at politicians for years fruit, eggs, shoes, pies etc. It's only when the likes of Tommy and Nige take a milkshake to the suit that it suddenly becomes a proxy for acid attacks. So just remember when it comes to the Brexit Party the Government shouldn't ban child porn on the Internet, but should criminalise milkshakes.

Let’s not forget the Tories who are about to elect a leader who, amongst other things, calls black people "picanninies" with "watermelon smiles".

And misjudged jokes. Child Porn and the Warrington pub bombings are fine though.

She keeps digging though :D

She told an audience last night: “Looking back it probably was somewhat a crass and ill-judged joke that might upset people.

“Of course I’d never do anything like that. It was purely a fantasy. I’m sorry. I’m a human, I make mistakes.

So the only difference is she'd like to do it, but hasn't got the balls. :mrgreen:

But Davidson is a racist because he said Khan has fucked up London. You couldn't make the hypocrisy up :rolleyes:

Khan will have the old bill all across this.

Powell was quoting from a letter from a lady pensioner in 1960s Wolverhampton who had been constantly harassed on the street by
the children on these immigrants to the extent where she dreaded leaving her house. Her language while not PC, would not be
unusual of someone from her generation (pre-war).

The hard left are very over represented here for some reason. You don't hear normal people saying the sort of things you read here very often and on most forums they seem to be a tiny minority.
I must say that they constantly come out with some very bloody nasty stuff though. They seem to genuinely hate those who disagree with them politically and I really think they'd like to hurt people if they could .
