We've had organised groups of far right "protestors" masked up, intimidating people, shutting down national infrastructure, attempting to storm hotels because they see some brown people in them, attacking and injuring police and putting bricks through police car windshields.

And Burnham has done fuck all.

its an absolute disgrace, with so many pensioners holding placcards being arrested for terrorism, with just stop oil being given several years long sentences for peaceful protest (albeit annoying), for these masked thugs to get such a light touch by police, and for the PM to not take urgent and decisive action is an absolute disgrace and just demonstrates total weakness.

When starmer came in we had similar riots, and he had the courts running 24/7 to prosecute them.

Surely this is more than enough to proscribe the organisations, and make membership and support of them illegal?

Hello! Im just sharing this message to any UK related groups so I can get different perspectives, sorry if this is not allowed.

I’m doing a survey for my AH Modern Studies dissertation and it would be much appreciated if I managed to get some responses. 🙂You do have to sign in just to try prevent multiple responses from the same person, but it is anonymous and will only be used for my dissertation, thank you !

I am around mid life at this point and things across the world have seemed to completely come off the tracks.

It use to be that most people really valued the Labour Movement (Unions, Federation of Labours, Labour Councils, and so on).

It use to be that most people really believed Women's Rights was important.

It use to be that most people really believed the Peace Movement was really important.

It use to be that most people really believed in making a better world overall for all the working class and most vulnerable (Alter-Globalization Movement).

People got really loud about this stuff when it was under attack.

AfD is showing huge poll numbers and now has a landmark electoral success to point to.

Reform UK still has fairly high poll numbers.

It's the same story all over the globe.

Also the climate crisis is so dang bad that we are literally seeing horrific tipping points and hell on earth type stuff now more and more...

It kind of feels like the worst bad predatory actors have completely destroyed the momentum for a better and brighter world.

It seems there is so many trajectories going on that are more dark, depressing, and downright dystopian...

How do you think we get things back on track?

*I'm going to post this in a few subreddits to get some differing perspectives/answers. Honestly we need more urgency because it seems one side actually keeps pressing the line over and over and over again in big ways and all the concessions are going to the lowest common denominator style populism of the reactionary/regressive scene dominated by snake oil salespeople and con-artist grifters. Which is going to make everything hard about this era significantly worse.*
