With superior brain this is hamas getting more powerful

It is superior to see the wisdom of police withdrawing instead of wadding in with force.

Below is the culture and values of the British Police. Note 4 in particular but read all 9.

The policemen containing the demonstration are unarmed.

The whole thing is looking like a movie set.

In my home country, trigger happy special forces of the Nigerian Army, Airforce, Navy, Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Civil defence, Immigration, Customs, etc would have been on ground with assault rifles to shoot live rounds.

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

I saw police go to a place to enforce the law and they ran away not returning for a day. What's wrong in that understanding? Is it that not what happened?

You also "saw" a book and claimed "maths is racist", so you might see how your misunderstanding is not what happened despite what you claim you saw.

Its after all not as if you went to Leeds to look with your own eyes and 'saw' now, is it?

My point is, the police were chased out and they did not return for a day. It shows they are powerless.

That's not only your point, its your understanding of the situation which is incorrect.

The police would have been there recording evidence that would be used in court to prosecute the offenders. Or do you think they fled back to the safety of their police station?

bemeruca:
In some countries around Europe, they bring in water canon and make sure these guys don't roam the streets unchallenged

Water canon and teargas, but that is clearly not British culture now is it.

Protesters and property damagers are free to "roam the streets" as much as they want. We have cameras everywhere recording their roaming and whatever damage they may do to property, which will be used against them in court. They can decide for themselves how free they are to roam the streets unchallenged and damage property when they are incarcerated at his majesty's pleasure.

Well, I'm very certain even you have a brain in your head and can use it sometimes to know most humans will prioritise life over property, but you are very welcome to apply to the British Police to prioritise property over your own life.

Protection of life, first. They would not protect property before protecting life, and they definitely will not stupidly protect property with their life.

It is their duty to protect properties.

No bem, it is not the UK police duty to protect properties that can very easily be replaced. They are not security guards.

Their duty is to protect irreplaceable lives including the bus drivers and their own, which they smartly rightly did by removing themselves from harm.

How am I imposing culture on anyone by saying live and follow the culture of the land?

Are you suggesting rioting is not British culture?

If you knew your history you'd know many cultures have migrated here from the beginning of time and will continue to migrate here till the end of time.

It is the culture of the land of UK to be multicultural, which you have opposed here. We are the Borg. We assimilate or we'd be bigots like some.

They left their patrol car and flee on foot. The car was destroyed. It takes time to set a bus on fire, if they did not flee, that would t have happened

They smartly and intelligently moved themselves to safety instead of trying to protect a patrol car.

If they hadn't they might have been hurt, but they are rather more wise than to let that happen to them since they have lots of patrol cars to replace the destroyed ones.

We are seeing the results. When you are in rome, act like the Romans. I live according to the culture here. If I love my culture so much I will leave n go back home.

It is not anyone's culture to burn buses in rome or anywhere, so your point is rather pointless.

Its like saying when Nigerians come to live in UK they should not bring their yahoo culture, as if you've preached "when in rome" when they bought their ticket and they accepted your preaching.

If true though, you should come live here so you can act like we Romans who don't object to multiculturalism instead of trying to impose your bigoted culture on us.

Like I said, multiculturalism is the downfall of a nation.

I so love the way you refuse to leave your village to go and be multicultural in a city.

It is in fact commendable of you not leaving your country to go and be multicultural in a country that isn't your culture.

There should be more like you who remain in their own village so they don't go and downfall other nations. Fortunately, not everyone is stupid and ignorant to think their migration ruins where they migrate to.

Travel › Re: Man Becomes Bus Conductor After Being Duped Of N15M For Relocation To Canada by budaatum: 2:38pm On Jul 19, 2024

Conductor no easy.

I got caught short at Ikeja a second time except this time it was way late at night. I figured I'd beg a bus driver to please take me to Ikotun, but before I could, one sharp guy jumped in front of me and begged instead, then a police got in too.

I felt, that's 2 free seats already. It wouldn't be fair to ask for a third. Fortunately, he had no conductor, so I offered my services, and yelled "Ikotun Ikotun wọle" and collected fairs, and that's how I arrived at Ikotun from Ikeja. Except I wasn't home yet, and still had to get to Cele, and further still to last busstop.

So I asked the driver for 50Naira, to wit he said, "you're not from here are you?" I think he counted the money I'd collected for him and was rather pleased. "No", I said. "I'm here from UK and got caught short", and he laughed and gave me 100Naira.

I got a bus to Cele for 50, but every time I tried stopping a bike to last busstop, out my mouth would come "Ikotun Ikotun wọle", so I walked.

On arrival home, my worried sister asked why I was so late back and I told her. "Why didn't you just get a taxi and I'd pay when you got here", she said. But of course bush me didn't know that was even a possible thing to do.

Next day, I couldn't talk. I had lost my voice on just one trip, and felt for those who did Ikeja-Ikotun all day.

Just because I like history.
Roosevelt was the last President that was shot while running for Election. He was shot, saved by the speech he had in his pocket. And with the bullet still in his chest delivered his speech for 90 minutes. He later lost the Election.

That was then when the shoot was not televised and there weren't magas to fear. And he was running against the Republican nominee and the Democrats. All the same, I hope history repeats itself.

If sweets and chewing gum factory, noodles factory, biscuits factory can operate in Nigeria with gen and still be cheaper than those produced in countries with power proves my point.

"Chewing gum factory, noodles factory, biscuits factory" are not "cheaper than those produced in countries with power operating effectively".

That's why we import cheap instead of hiring locally to produce our own locally.

But what made me post it was what I perceived as bias, "factory owner needs capital to expand production", which then made me consider my bias, which is, "Electric power energises".

Cheap available energy subsidises all businesses and enables them to be more productive, and it energises the consumer to consume as the post shows. If my fridge works 24-7 I'm more energised to fill it with what many sell that delights me.

As for factories you didn't know are shutting down during power cuts in a country with reliable electricity, I lol. But as said, different biases.

And given that she seems intelligent, I am guessing she's either grifting(increasing her profile) or trolling.

AmazonTopaz:
Lol, nobody who was not voting for Trump will vote for him now because he was shot. His shooting (he was hit by a glass anyway) does not change the fact that project 2025 will happen if he wins, Roe v Wade is gone, the shooting is even an oppprtunity for dems to talk about gun control which Republicans hate to talk about. Biden is going to win stop dooming. Trump and his base don't have the numbers to win.

Even if that individual is "grifting(increasing her profile) or trolling", there are some who will be swayed by bloody faced dump, I would think. It made me call him by his name for once, and some might hold their noses longer so they don't smell what they now know he is and vote for him.

My hope is such people are few, and that most consider project 2025 and "Roe v Wade is gone", and that it is an "opportunity for dems to talk about gun control",

Does that matter? I rather not say it's private

What I am going to say is I challenge anyone that can name a factory where power contribute more than 10% the cost of production and I would give them 1 million instantly

Not even metal extraction has that

Not just a factory, mrvitalis, but also the factoring of minds.

See the consequence of no power for a week then equate it to Nigeria and tell me we are not loosing at least 50% which could have been utilised to energise our minds.
