They are anywhere from 97-107 years old.

They are an absolute joy to listen to when they are interviewed. They were/are selfless.

If, say, 100 of them decided that they’ve had enough of their homeland arresting true English people for:

1. Preaching the Word Of Jesus
2. Raising an English Flag
3. Protesting the invasion of foreign military aged men.
4. Posting about the way things used to be in the country they fought for.
5. Mentioning anything about Jesus in the presence of Muslims.


and these selfless white men decided to gather in front of a very popular place that has been the location of prior arrests mentioned above; would the progressives arrest them in public?
Or Only after the fact?
Or leave them alone as a one-off?


These men are really the source of what is called English resolve/wit/determination. Their effort has been eroded. But would Starmer/KCharles et al put them last in the hierarchy of importance?

They've already arrested some of these people. I can recall at least one video of some old dude being arrested for causing "anxiety". These older folk are the people they are replacing...just like they are trying here. Not to mention, their age is a burden on the their free healthcare system.

Years ago (early 1990s, I believe), the late Dr. Stephen Ambrose headed the Eisenhower Center at UNO. He and his students began the task of interviewing WWII vets about their experiences. There is a huge audio collection at the National WWII Museum.

Ambrose interviewed and wrote Eisenhower's biography and Eisenhower told him it was the landing craft made by Andrew Jackson Higgins at the Higgins Shipyard in New Orleans that won the war. They never could have made the D-Day invasion happen without them.

I'm on the edge of that Silent Generation. They thought me the value of God, Family, Country, and Neighborhood.

Everything worked on their watch.

I hate to see them pass.

How or I should ask "why" is England arresting people for their speech?

...and why are constables following these orders?

I had some great influences on my life from those in the greatest generation. Their love of country, grit, determination, value of hard work and ingenuity has been the core of our success since WWII.

Unfortunately our society is currently living off the fumes of that gas, and those fumes are burning out.

They definitely would be publicly labeled as racists and fascists even though they’ve done more to fight against fascism than any of the pink and blue hair smelly trash yelling against fascism that we see and hear from all the time.

No doubt they would arrest them and call them racists.

They simply don't have free speech like we do here unfortunately. Their speech is very limited.

They can directly criticize their leaders all day but they can arrest you there for anything perceived to be alarming or provoking. And yes they are biased as frick against anything considered conservative or old-guard. Anything you say disparingly bad about a particular culture (besides white) can get you arrested.

They wouldn’t have any issue arresting them, the guys are so old and frail even the obese police can track them down.
They’ve arrested them before.
Australia is wanting to try one of their highest decorated soldiers ever for war crimes in Afghanistan,
