Woke watch

[arsene york-hunt]

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

HandP No you're talking nonsense. Grooming gangs have been in existence since the 80s and in example of Rotherham continued at big scale until 2013. There was largely decent police numbers in that period. Plus it was not resource related that Police ignored this over a long period of time. It was a conscious choice. Police numbers started being cut in 2010. So you are categorically incorrect that over a 30 to 40 year period police numbers impacted on their decision making. Unlike lack of trained riot police in 2024 after over a decade of cuts to numbers and losing an army of experienced officers. These are two separate issues and time periods. Is that clear? Do you need diagrams drawn in crayon?

"Pickle, just out of interest, when is it ok to get angry? I mean we all pay a lot in taxes in this country, presumably with those taxes going towards an expectation that the money you're putting in isn't going towards institutions that know about, but choose to ignore the systematic rape of vulnerable young girls, especially when those institutions are best placed to do something about it? Can people not be angry about that then?"

"If you want the solution fixed what are your suggestions for doing so? I'm sure that there's a focus group somewhere hanging on your every word.... ...or do you feel that you voted for people other than yourself to solve the problem...oh, wait..."

[Hammer and Pickle]

"Nothing sick or degenerate about not feeling I have to froth and posture on this, swamp myrtle. Rest assured, I want the problem fixed though, and maybe even more than you. Don’t really care who has the guilty conscience or not here."

Pickle holds views and beliefs which put women and children in real danger

"Most of the time I think Pickle is just a twit, but occasionally he says something that makes me genuinely believe he is a sick degenerate."

"Fifth Column 3:52 Wed Jul 24 Re: Woke watch while i agree that the conflation of excessive political correctness & wokeism, its somewhat of a smokescreen to the real issue - which you concede yourself is that the police didn't want to be accused of racism, so they didn't go at it the way they should. So you can call it what you want, its largely a moot point, its just flat out wrong that its where we are. If i were to draw a dsitinction between the two, i would at least say that political correctness is well meaning stupidity. Wokeism is just dishonest from minute one - simultaneously screaming like pre pubescent schoolgirls about defunding the police while complaining about the cuts in numbers. They're a group of people who lie to themselves continually, so its pretty pointless actually having a debate with any of them - if they can't be honest with themselves, you don't stand much chance of getting an honest response to anything."

Once again the desperate Polish tramp will happily say anything to make the thread all about him.

[Hammer and Pickle]

Such a shame the police and councils in question didn’t take frothy posturing lessons from Edward and Pointy here. The cases would have been closed and the perpetrators castrated in public years ago. Country is going to the dogs innit.

[Hammer and Pickle]

OK FC So the point you made about staff cuts is not a point you wanted to make at all. Or is it?

"Hammer and Pickle 2:49 Wed Jul 24 'Where’s Pointy when you have a whole load of drama queens getting all het-up because they have misinterpreted the meaning of a word? Jeez, no wonder the councils in question froze and were accused of political correctness.' Yes, it's always acceptable to ignore/abet/encourage child abduction and rape when normal people get all het up about it."

[Fifth Column]

"Mim you're simultaneously spot on and completely wrong. I'm not sure I'd call all the grooming stuff with the Police as a result of being woke. That was pre-woke. If this had been girls who weren't poor and mainly in care/involved with social services they'd have done something. Police absolutely couldn't have cared less about them. They clearly didn't want to be called ""racist"" which was also unforgiveable but I think it was a slightly different problem to the rainbow cars etc which is what I think of when people say ""woke"". My point is about have enough staff. Painting a car rainbow colours, following up people about Tweets - it does make the Police look ludicrous. At the same time it has v v v minimal impact on time and resources of the Police. It has no impact on them being able to respond to a riot. It didn't lead to cuts of over 20,000 officers. Cuts in officers lead to fewer officers, leads to less time to train meaning they are indeed ill equipped to deal with most situations because they are thrown in at the deep end immediately. And riot police receive lengthy training that you have to go from level 1 to 2 to 3 over a period of years so regardless of WHO you recruit as a starting point, you can't suddenly get people with specific training immediately after they start work. Fitness standards have been dropped marginally though they were never high to start with. And it's largely to attract enough people regardless of the their 'group'. The police struggle to get good people and so fitness expectations are dropped in the hope of getting people in the door who aren't mentalists. Also H&P - the investigations (or lack of investigations) into grooming were nothing to do with lack of resources - that's nonsense. Certainly not at the start."

[Hammer and Pickle]

"I doubt you even have the cognitive capacity to be surprised, Twundle."

[Lee Trundle]

"Imagine my surprise to see Hamas & Pickled double down on his nonsense, rather than holding his hands up."

[Hammer and Pickle]

"Where’s Pointy when you have a whole load of drama queens getting all het-up because they have misinterpreted the meaning of a word? Jeez, no wonder the councils in question froze and were accused of political correctness. But I used the term social to describe the drama because it certainly wasn’t your personal tragedy however much you think it expedient to present the grooming in Rochdale that way. Social drama is what is happening in Ukraine and Gaza. Social drama is the years of neglect and shit government suffered at the hands of the populist Tories. Social drama is the thing you insist on playing the role of clowns in so much you make a total try-hard fist of even such a simple task. Fuck off you planktons."

[WHU(Exeter)]

"And the ‘key effect’ of “this media crap”, was to FINALLY get the police to actually fucking do something about it, years too late. Still, they do have a lot on their hands, in between stuffing Greggs, bullying the homeless and being at the beck and call of Tescos and Sainsbury’s."

[WHU(Exeter)]

"“Without checking I would bet they've lowered fitness standards” Looks like a fair few of them should be sponsored by Greggs. Pickle, a “social drama”? You’re unreal and an absolute prick for using those words. *awaits word salad and tiresome, pathetic ‘hot under the collar’ comment*"

only1billybonds 1:41 Wed Jul 24 Repulsive is one word for it. And I commend you on your diplomatic response and use of that word. I could think of alot worse.

[only1billybonds]

You call the grooming and rape of hundreds of young girls a 'social drama'? You really are a special kind of repulsive.
