That's my response to most @dutchguylivingintheuk's posts.

I wonder if he's having a good time with his bestie in Europe? Maybe they're getting teeth done together!
 
He's really not.
I disagree, he is so over the top busy with explaining why he isn't it sounds to me more like confirming he is.

And the article which was originally linked is from Sky News, which is as far away from "left winged press" as you can get without being GB News.
The outlet doesn't have to be left-right or center, this particular piece is clearly jumping on the bandwagon of claiming it's all because of those crazy extreme right lunatics. Which is cute, but it's WRONG...

I mean just like a lot of other things it would actually be great if that was the case but it isn't because if it was we would have seen similar turnouts at the ''regular far right protest but that isn't the case, those are often an handful of protestors and busloads off aggressive far left ''counter protestors''.
Like often it was a combination of people being bored the cocktail of misinformation and people just angry enough to go on these rampages as we have seen.
Surely there are far right figures amongst them as are those who are very sympathetic with them, but i believe this is more a protest against the ruling elite then against immigrants, not to say that i would feel safe walking to such a protest, or that the UK now feels as a more welcoming country.

All that i want to say it this didn't start the fire, but it certainly did ignite it and still nothing is being done to actually fight it.

This does not tally with this.

He IS saying that without saying it. Having said that, i feel almost sorry for all the left winged press trying to cover a story they don't understand and instead of admitting they don't get it they double down on the ''far right extremist frame''

I wouldn't normally encourage playing with matches but you might learn something if you did.
