Me too. Which is kind of sad really I wouldn't have done it if their hadn't been such a furore.Just set up a regular donation.
Apparently donations are now 20 times more than this time last weekMe too. Which is kind of sad really I wouldn't have done it if their hadn't been such a furore.
It came the government, attempting to make it illegal to rescue people drowning at sea and bringing them to dry land, in case they turn out to be refugees.Oh god is this what’s triggering the RWNJ back home now is it?
It's a very easy concept
The RNLI help those who are in danger on the sea.
That's it. There’s no more discussion about them to be had except be grateful for what they do.
He's a vile little oxygen thief.
I don’t know if I feel bad for reading a tweet from a man who apparently gets airtime on a Tv channel or sad for the 2700 likes had for the tweet. Has Britain really become a cesspit of racism now?He's a vile little oxygen thief.
Not the entire country, but certainly the ones making the laws and holding the loudhailers.I don’t know if I feel bad for reading a tweet from a man who apparently gets airtime on a Tv channel or sad for the 2700 likes had for the tweet. Has Britain really become a cesspit of racism now?
No that is clearly the case given the increased donations. Let's not turn this into england are racist. We are not, some are wonderful people there are a tiny minority of racists, Let's defeat them. Not by hatred but by showing them another way to live.I don’t know if I feel bad for reading a tweet from a man who apparently gets airtime on a Tv channel or sad for the 2700 likes had for the tweet.

No fortunately I am heartened by the donations to the RNLI in response but the fact that this minority are becoming ever more emboldened is a concern driven by the likes of the Government and four mainstream newspapers and now a TV Channel. It cant be under played.No that is clearly the case given the increased donations. Let's not turn this into england are racist.

Unfortunately, the racists are crawling out from under their rocks all over the globe, its really not just contained to a few countries. They are more emboldened now than ever, and can now come out and say how they really feel without having to check themselves.No fortunately I am heartened by the donations to the RNLI in response but the fact that this minority are becoming ever more emboldened is a concern driven by the likes of the Government and four mainstream newspapers and now a TV Channel.

It’s just become more divided. The racists are definitely out loud and proud now. The anti immigration side of Brexit has made it socially acceptable to be racist in this country.

I was at my kid's sports day a couple of years ago and a dad I'd never spoken to before turned to me as a race was about to start and just came out with "Good job there's no Muslim kids here: then they'd have to win, wouldn't they?"It’s just become more divided.

"The Conservative party is an eternally irritating force for wrong that appeals exclusively to bigots, toffs, money-minded machine men, faded entertainers and selfish, grasping simpletons who were born with some essential part of their soul missing."Idiot is correct. As if anyone crossing the channel in a small overcrowded dinghy isn't going to be in a desperate situation. Take away the lifeboats and it won't change the number of people attempting to come in to the country, just the number that tragically perish.
Tories put way too much faith in the idea of deterrents in my opinion. You see the same daft arguments made for capital punishment and nuclear weapons.
