He is a racist. That is me being polite about him.


I'm not sure he is. Provocative but i dont think hes as bad as hes made out. I dont have rascist bone in my body.


He's portrayed as a viscous racist by the establishment and the media. He is, as you say, provocative and not afraid to speak his mind on issues he feels strongly about.

I think he is misunderstood in some ways.


I watch quite a bit of him on Youtube and must admit i find myself agreeing with him on occassion and im not a rascist.


Same here. If you actually listen to him and try to engage with what he's saying without any preconceived bias, you'll find that he does actually talk a fair bit of sense on many issues.


He must have a constant target on his head. On many of those videos he is being spat at, threatened, chased by pretty mean looking dudes. I have seen him try to be reasonable and debate and be insulted left, right and centre.

I thought the media was mainly on the left, and that politicians are at least central if not far right, in most states.

I take it you’re not from the UK?

Either way, the media and politicians all have one thing in common; they lie.

He does, you're right. He can't even visit his hometown of Luton anymore without being attacked by angry mobs. And he always goes into these situations on his own.

Aimlesswandeer rounds off the top three with TheCleaver (a former runner-up) moving into fourth place with Johnny Bravo taking 5th so far just ahead of GJ.

No, Ireland, but that was my opinion on it, from watching Sky News, reading British news articles and watching clips from the Commons. I'll bow to the knowledge of a man from and in British soil

Most of our media and politicians are very centrist, and have been for quite some time now. Anyone who steps outside of that centrist bubble, either to the left or the right, is viciously attacked.

Look at the newspapers. 85% right wing.

Look at the lovely people Tommy Robinson attracts. He ain't Mother Teresa!


Your definition of right wing is slightly right of centre. Why are you even reading newspapers anyway?

It is actually Boris Johnson. And yes he is an Islamophobe, but not as big an Islamophobe as Tommy Robinson.

I haven’t heard you condemn the Christianophobes who murdered and injured hundreds of Christians on Easter Sunday.

Yes that’s correct. Libertarianism is basically very little to no government.


the partial quote you took from my comment removes the sentiment of my message, I think we're on the same page



Oh I see, apologies then. I’m glad we see eye to eye!


Yeah sorry, I could have been clearer, I didn't mean we need the government to get involved, but, some people feel we need the government to get involved. I'm definitely not in the government knows best, virtual signalling, snowflake, sjw crowd.

Drive my truck midway to the motorway station
Fairlane cruiser coming up on the left hand side
Headlight shining, driving rain on the window frame
Little young Lady Stardust hitching a ride... and it's
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Whizzkid sitting pretty on your two-wheel stallion
This ol' ten-ton lorry got a bead on you
Ain't no use setting up with a bad companion
Ain't nobody get the better of you-know-who
2-4-6-8 ain't never too late
Me and my radio truckin' on thru the night
3-5-7-9 on a double white line
Motorway sun coming up with the morning light
Well there ain't no route you could choose to lose the two of us
Ain't nobody know when you're acting right or wrong
No-one knows if a roadway's leading nowhere
Gonna keep on driving home on the road I'm on...

That was beautiful, in a way it says to me that Robbo will win the WC because of the journey he's been on. Is that what it means? Or are you a trucker and it's what happened today?
