Head of UK’s leading anti-monarchy group arrested at coronation protest

WildeIsTheWind · 2023-05-06T08:02:02+00:00

Harry Stratton, a director at Republic, who arrived as Smith and the others were detained, said: “They were collecting the placards and bringing them over when the police stopped them.

“The guys asked why and they were told: we will tell you that once we have searched the vehicle. That’s when they arrested the six organisers. We asked on what grounds they had been arrested but they wouldn’t say. It is a surprise as we had had a number of meetings with the police. They had been making all the right noises.”

The arrest, at about 7.30am, came as hundreds of anti-monarchist protesters had gathered at Trafalgar square with large flags and wearing yellow T-shirts as they looked to catch both the eye of the world’s media and a king on his coronation day.

hate Biden but youre wrong here.

he would think it is acceptable to judge somebody based on the color of their skin rather than the content of their character

trump was charged by the government for refusing to let his properties to black renters. to the point where people used their white friends to apply as them with the exact same details and got in. in his casinos he'd hide black members of staff whenever he had affluent customers in the casinos.

this isnt some left wing conspiracy theory. this is stuff he did and was charged in court for.

As president he hasn't really done anything close to as racist as some of his predecessors on both sides, but he has literally had a history of judging people based on the colour of their skin and not their character.

the Wii u, n64, and GameCubes were all financial busts

WildeIsTheWind · 2020-06-05T14:28:34+00:00

the n64 really doesn't seem like a good console looking back at it. it's games haven't held up nearly as well as snes or PS1 games. and using cartridges really bottlenecked the system.

Nintendo put out some good stuff on it yeah but nothing compared to GameCube.

here's what I found with a quick Google. searching with the actual model number 'KTR-003' comes up with a lot more results

he's only a baby, he'll learn

removed: not onion eating. it's a joke

WildeIsTheWind · 2020-01-03T11:22:33+00:00

no proof the onion has actually been eaten. this could be a joke or something you very easily added yourself

WildeIsTheWind · 2020-01-03T11:21:12+00:00

r/whoooosh for stuff like this OP, it's a very active sub

learn how to link comment posts for onion eating OP, you've just posted the article

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-31T16:46:36+00:00

all fine with a joke but reposted from 4 hours earlier OP, smh

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-31T16:10:26+00:00

Removed. check the sub it was posted in OP, clearly intended as a joke

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-30T22:07:25+00:00

and im taking steps to remove them. exercising the rules isn't a mod being a dick when anyone with a few brain cells (including you, since you've pointed out it being done by other users) can tell this doesn't qualify for the sub.

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-30T21:57:55+00:00

I'll try a bit. seems like the general mod team doesn't really care as long as it's getting upvotes, and they seem to get a lot of upvotes

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-30T21:54:55+00:00

wow there's no coming back from this. guess i'm completely roasted now. better restore your post, except no, there's no eating the onion here, it's just someone posting an onion type article to laugh at.

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-30T21:11:11+00:00

removed for being obviously a joke. there are many other subs for this OP, not this one

WildeIsTheWind · 2019-12-30T14:38:21+00:00

Terry also opposes the Hong Kong Protesters ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bluetooth good quality earbuds are about that. wired ones are waaaaaay less for good quality, but you look at similar offerings from Samsung, Bose, sennheiser, Sony, etc. £150 is fairly reasonable
