So, the fascists turned up outside of the targeted building, and as far as I can see the road is full of the tolerant folk who are as someone said are really tolerant of tolerance, and very intolerant of intolerance.

I've no idea if it's true, but the word here in Brighton is that the fascists were met off the trains by drag queens and a samba band.

You don't have to be an idiot to bring white supremacy to the most welcoming and inclusive city in the country, but it sure helps

It looks as if the whole of Brighton has turned out. It is quite a big road that runs from the station down to the sea, and it is absolutely packed with thousands upon thousands of people all just stood around being tolerant๐Ÿ˜„

Fabulous, Brighton!

My heart swells to see all the peaceful, pro immigrant counter protestors all around the country. We can be an inclusive, caring society and not allow this social breakdown..
