Also I love how Tommy riles up the same old posters on here. If Corbynistas/Owen Jones wannabes want to post on foreign websites well so be it!
Lennon had taken to Twitter to threaten to take on ‘plastic paddies’ at Wembley’s England verses Ireland football friendly last Wednesday.
In one message he claims his parents would be “in Ireland picking potatoes and eating cabbages”, if they hadn’t moved to England.
cos of all this abuse from plastic paddys we are taking a tidy mob to England Ireland on 29th.”

“Part of Irish heritage is being able to have a laugh, hence my mum picking potatoes and boiling cabbage,” he said.

Stephen just wanted the police to take their phone for some reason, presumable because he keeps calling them pedos so they might have something else incriminating on their phone. And he wanted the police to take the phones of anyone who was with him. Of course they had no grounds to do that. But it gave Stephen a reason to get angry and some nice publicity and shake his donation jar at people again

I understand TR is a very unpopular figure but if the authorities are swayed by popular opinion into treating people differently to curry favour or avoid criticism from the mob then imo thats a very dark path to start down. Im not saying that is happening here, but the implications of that would be very troubling.

Outlaw Pete wrote: » I haven't fallen for anything. I listened to his daughter describe what happened to her and I believe she wasn't lying or making it up because of the way she came across whilst she did so. Multiple times I've said that but yet certain users keep suggesting this guy is my hero or something and that's the reason I believe her. Again: I also suspected there might be chance she was fed a story and relayed it to impress her father, kids are capable of that, but there is no chance that is what that kid was doing in that audio. Tommy was great with her, I felt, and let her give her side of the story, even asking her was she sure it wasn't an accident. My opinion is based on the facts and it's quite clear others is based on their political leanings.
