@DoubleTreble@cupoftea.social It’s horrific: add those people to the hundreds already arrested-yet the government claims the jails are full and the courts are overwhelmed. No one arrested at the racist intimidation going on outside places where immigrants are housed…… Starmer and his government have lost any hint of decency, morals or respect they may have had. Anyone who remains in the current administration deserves all the opprobrium possible.

They never did have any decency or morals.

It's Blair's puppet government and he's selling us out to the US fascists.

@HarriettMB@beige.party @DoubleTreble@cupoftea.social From what I have seen, the police have arrested all sorts of ordinary people, who are not dangerous, who will get a slap on the wrist by courts, if they ever get there.

The arrests will not make any difference. Except to make people hate the government more. It will not reduce "terrorism" in the country.

But as you say, the people who seem to be up for causing actually trouble, harm to people, damage to property, and spreading terror - i.e. terrorists - are being permitted to get on with it.

@HarriettMB@beige.party @DoubleTreble@cupoftea.social its even more devious what is going on - as its simply not possible to find cells for 474 people, even in London, the vast majority of them would likely have been arrested in the street and then bailed, with only those who couldn't (or wouldn't) verify identity being taken to the custody suites. But all those bailed will have conditions not to attend protests or risk further arrest and charges, creating a wider chilling effect.

As for the racist protestors, I suspect they are being allowed to help build the "hostile environment", possibly with some collusion from "security" staff at the places sheltering immigrants (even even those security don't seem to be actually getting attacked)
