Haha this eu benefits brake thing is forcing the eurosceptics to argue that eu immigrants don't claim a lot of benefits

They don't but the eurosceptics have been quick to suggest that they do for a long time

Hello! Which counter-protest are you attending (UAF or Midlands Antifash)?

I'm just trying to find details re: the protests atm - Pegida have been kept out of the centre and will be marching from birmingham international station (I think?)

It looks like the UAF one will be in the centre so probably won't have any contact with Pegida at all

E: looks like the midlands antifa will be directly opposing them at international, based on the facebook event they set up

Someone else will have gone back and found it and retweeted it as a gotcha, same as pissflaps posting it in this thread.

The tweet explicitly mentions guantanamo, Corbyn was heavily involved in the campaign to free Shaker

we aren't able to leave the staging area at all, except back to the trains - nobody has seen pegida at all, the whole thing was obviously preplanned this way after it was moved here

e: the black block are getting rowdy, im chatting with the press

I just want to see how many there are and maybe yell "gently caress off" at them - looks like I will have to wait for the news - seems the only people opposing them directly today will be the cops

Looks like theyve lost the key to the porta-potty they were escorting people to now

Apparently the police have arrested some of GBC's Legal Observers in Birmingham and nobody knows why. Any ideas phoon?

the two legal observers I saw didn't seem to be having any trouble with the cops (a short middle aged man and woman)

Would throwing him in jail for a decade actually help? Not entirely sure. Is the only reason he got such a light "sentence" because he's in loving Eton? Of course it is. :suicide:
