“Tory scum off our streets, Nazi scum off our streets!” shouted left-wing protesters in central London.
Around a thousand demonstrators, many masked and holding antifa symbols, poured onto the streets of the British capital to protest the U.K.’s election results. The Conservatives won in a landslide election the day before, likely guaranteeing Britain’s withdrawal from the EU at the end of next month.
The British capital descended into chaos as the Met Police struggled to contain protesters connected to antifa, socialist and communist groups. They had shut down the streets in and around Westminster. They demanded a “revolution” and the ousting of the Conservatives.
Protesters disobeyed police orders and shoved officers who attempted to block them from certain routes. At one point, officers brandished batons at the crowd to get them to comply.
The protesters held anti-Boris Johnson signs distributed by the Socialist Workers Party. Others, wearing masks, brandished antifa flags.
The ongoing chaotic protest echoes left-wing demonstrations-turned-riots in the U.S. after Donald Trump’s electoral win in November 2016.
If you are too stupid to understand the difference between people defending themselves against aggression, and those initiating it, Please stop posting and learn some basic history about consequences of the moral cowardice know as pacifism
Your rabid idiocy about a mythical moral equivalence between Antifa and those opposing them is completely intellectually, and morally, bankrupt.
You are a willing co conspirator with evil.

Doug and Dinsdale Piranha, could sort the mess out.
Very lame protest in comparison with American tear gas, rocks, fireworks and concrete milkshakes.
I’m not criticizing people’s right to post careless comments from the comfort of their whatever. Or their right to make emotional tirades in response to me. I’m only trying to create awareness of the difference between those kinds of actions and the real world.
I was thinking the same, Da Coyote, until thinking about the possible arrests and trials that might begin this coming summer.
I can easily imagine that Antifa & Soros are making plans as we text to cause as much fear and violence next summer, with the hope of intimidating people into not voting for the Divisive Bad Orange Man.
If he calls out the guard, and shots are fired... what then? If he calls up the military, he just gives the Dems another case for “peach mint”. If the police are attacked, it’s Trump’s fault. Will the goons show up when we go to vote as they did in Philadelphia?
I don’t think it is a coup. I think we are in a civil war. I am afraid it is going to be ugly.
Looks like protesters are pushing the cops back back back so many protesters and not enough police.
No tear gas, nothing but themselves and batons. Insane.
There are Cass Sunstein disciples out there who actually believe they can turn a person’s heart from patriot to murderer with a mere post.

I would prefer the Queen’s Royal Gurkha Rifles.
Time to get the Narwhal tusks out, and dust them off.
Socialist Workers Party ping.
Remember, antifa is based on creating fear by putting on a show.
The best response to them is to acknowledge what they are—the militant wing of the same pitiful joke seen in Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi.
These putrid thugs need to be defeated.
Anti democracy.
They never give up. We have to accept the moonbats will never leave us alone.
