As luck would have i wasn't here for the extreme right wing march in London yesterday where thousands of fascists descended in Parliament Square to the relief of shop owners everywhere as the national shoplifting rate dropped for a day.
Stephen Yaxley-Lennon who organised the even put the turnout at 150,000 but the Police said 50,000 (and who would you believe, the police or someone who has been sentenced five times for assault, threats, harassment and fraud as well as contempt of court) which is still 50,000 too many but with that many people chanting all sorts of racist nonsense, it took the combined IQ of the crowd to 50,000 as each right wing extremist has the IQ of a wooden bench, the cleverer ones anyway.
Luckily, 50,000 morons out of a population is 70 million is a small number but the concern is that most of these are of legally voting age and we all know where they will be scratching their X, next to Nigel Farage who is the new face of racism in the country and who leads Reform who are currently leading the polls for the next Prime Minister which should scare the hell out of anyone who isn't a nutter or insane.
Whenever i see or hear of crowds of fascists and racists getting together, my mind goes to a punk song from the late 80's which summed up perfectly what happens when the extreme right wing get their claws into the next generation.
Between the hours of twelve and two
The nagging doubts will come to you
Be paranoid parents coz they're after your kids
Who don't know what an Aryan master race is
They'll plant the seeds that will grow in time
And start the disease that will poison their minds
Fill them up with hatred and dress them up in robes
You know how the story goes
We've got one Mississippi
2 Mississippis 3 Mississippis
4 Mississippis 5 Mississippis 6 Mississippis burning
We've got 7 Mississippis 8 Mississippis
9 Mississippis 10 Mississippis
11 Mississippis 12 Mississippis burning burning burning
Burning down on this little mining town
Where people come from miles around
To see the funny snarling clowns
That's the concern, the seeds are being planted and are growing in, and poisoning the minds of the next generation.
I am confident that the UK is not on a trajectory of becoming like America under Trump where the racists are not longer on the fringes but emboldened to spout their awfulness by the snarling clowns in charge but then i never thought it would happen over there and we are watching on with amazement that it did and the suffering, destruction and ruin that has followed being run by people who are evidently not qualified to run a country. Take note UK.
