Who are Black Lives Matter? Where did they come from and what, exactly, do they believe in? These may seem silly questions. But in a month when Premier League footballers have joined Sir Keir Starmer and other British celebrities in ‘taking the knee’ to express their ‘collective support for the Black Lives Matter movement’, it is important that we ask them. Ask most people who have protested on Britain’s streets following the killing of George Floyd and you will probably get one of two answers.

Britain made a conscious decision to import this problem over the Post-War era..

[VTenigma]

Should work out well.

[BlackAdderess]

Good article containing actual investigative insights rather than emotionalism.

[DugwayDuke]

The kind of article that most people demonstrating for BLM should read. Most are simply unaware of its objectives.

Waiting for the storming of the castle.

[Delta 21]

Just ask any Australian.

[marktwain]

Very good article, showing how unaccountable and deliberately obscure BLM funding and activities are.

I want a new car. I may have a tantrum till someone gives one too me.

We made a conscious decision to bring this problem to our shores over 300 years ago. That doesn’t matter now it’s all in the past. As their real agenda becomes more and more apparent hopefully our side will wake up.

actually we didn’t make that conscious decision. We weren’t alive yet :-)

Thanks for your post, which caused me to read the entire article.

Yes, the article is well done.

[manc]

That is by far the best article out there asking questions. This is what the press should be doing instead of pandering and pushing an agenda.

[manc]

First time in a long time I have read an entire article . If only all the media could do a job like this and ask questions.

[Bigg Red]

I wonder now if the writer will be fired.

[manc]

I hope not since the writer did what a journalist did.
I would like to read more from this person and get more answers.
I sent the link to the article to my oldest who is in the Marine Corps , and he is passing it on to his Marine pals.

Not surprisingly, the BLM in the UK seems to be primarily driven by white pro-Palestine activists rather than actual black people.

[piasa]

Stafford Scott, co-founder of the Broadwater Farm Defence Campaign, said the only black thing in the entire [2016 BLMUK] protest was the Tarmac on the runway.

[Chewbarkah]

Turns out that BLM is a Communist-Anarchist movement designed to benefit criminals. Whodathunkit?

"Activist Ewa Jasiewicz sprayed political 'Free Gaza and Palestine' on the walls of the Warsaw Ghetto in 2010, the largest and most well-known of the ghettos designated by the Nazis in German-controlled territory, from which hundreds of thousands of Jews were sent to death camps or killed by shooting and another hundred thousand died of starvation and courageous revolt. . .Ms Jasiewicz is also a union organiser with Unite and has spoken at an event with the pro-Corbyn pressure group, Momentum. It is unlikely to come as a surprise to many observers that the Labour Party under its antisemitic leader, Jeremy Corbyn, attracts support from individuals such as Ms Jasiewicz. Campaign Against Antisemitism’s Antisemitism Barometer 2019 showed that antisemitism on the far-left of British politics has surpassed that of the far-right, and that Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is the party leader of choice for those who hold multiple antisemitic views. . .": Ewa Jasiewicz, who vandalised the Warsaw Ghetto, now campaigns for Labour

Sounds like Pani Jasiewicz misses the good old days of Władysław Gomułka, who kicked out most of Poland's remaining Jews in 1968.
