    Rooting Out Rupert

    Matthew Steeples highlights an especially unpleasant individual – Meet Rupert James, a ‘man’ with a hatred for Gina Miller and what he calls ‘Kaffir Boys’

     

    Aside from being a typical example of an angry old man, Rupert James is someone who takes to social media to abuse others. To him, Gina Miller is a “witch” and “an interfering bint”; an image of a black parking warden generates a comment of “just look… enough said” and a video of bull terriers attacking a black man in South Africa is shared along with the comment: “Take away has arrived. Feeding time… Serves the thieving Kaffir right… Hahaha!!!”

    The original post by the ‘organisation’

     

    Shared on Facebook with his equally nasty chums, James previously has referred to other black men as “Kaffir Boys” and myself as a “complete c**t”. He added: “He’s going to regret the way he’s spoken and written about me. This I promise” and added: “Being blocked by this little s**t is as good as being sent to the Upper House”. James has no regard for civility and along with his cronies seems unable to accept how inappropriate using the word ‘kaffir’ truly is.

     

    Regarded as “highly racially offensive, in the same way as nigger in the United Sates” according to Wikipedia and “seldom used as an isolated insult, but rather is used systematically by openly racist people when talking about black people”, ‘kaffir’ is a word that should be banished to history. It and individuals like Rupert James have no place in civilised society.

    Animals and Animals

    Social media has given a gang of angry old men a voice that is truly repugnant; weirdly they’re united by their adoration of cats and dogs

     

    Hitler loved animals. He didn’t like most humans and he especially didn’t like Jews, gypsies and gays. Now, a group of angry, bitter men have taken to social media in the wake of Brexit and the election of Trump and surprisingly, the one thing that unites them is that this mob also like sharing pictures of cats, dogs and other animals.

     

    Aside from their vile rants about Gina Miller – one offered a reward of £5,000 to anyone who might “accidentally run her over” – this nasty gaggle talk of how they “want to piss off the PC” and link to articles about robberies where they claim “blacks carry on this kind of work”. They brand anyone they don’t like “PC c**ts”, term them “feral dogs” and refer to Bernie Sanders as “a fascist neo-Liberal alt-left clown”. Surprisingly, however, these sorry excuses for humans also pepper their posts with images of wolves playing – accompanied by caption such as “how lovely” – and “lions running on grass for the first time” – “stunning, delightful”.

     

    Follow these people on Facebook and Twitter at your peril as all you’ll see is angry Middle England at its worst; the most intolerant animals have taken over the asylum and they love only the animals that can’t answer them back.

    Defeat of Zac Goldsmith in Richmond signals the 48%’s fight back is making headway

     

    Some would have you believe that yesterday’s by-election in Richmond was all about Zac Goldsmith’s opposition to the expansion of Heathrow Airport. It wasn’t and in her victory Liberal Democrat Sarah Olney proved one thing – the electorate of her new constituency wanted to give two fingers to Theresa May’s “Brexit means Brexit”.

     

    Despite the immensely wealthy Goldsmith being nothing other than principled and decent, we salute Olney’s victory. She has confirmed already that she’ll vote against the triggering of Article 50 and in her victory speech, she stated:

     

    “The people of Richmond Park and North Kingston have sent a shockwave through this Conservative Brexit government, and our message is clear: We do not want a hard Brexit”.

     

    “We do not want to be pulled out of the single market, and we will not let intolerance, division and fear win”.

     

    Elsewhere, last night, UKIP lost its sole seat on Dorset County Council and thus, it seems, those opposed to Theresa May’s stupidity are moving up a gear. Sense prevailed when Gina Miller’s legal challenge was successful and it did so again last night. This movement can now only grow and we urge our readers to continue to support a return to the right road.
