Maybe you should exercise more haste and less speed when you read posts, then you would understand the point that no protest (regardless of its merits or otherwise) should ever be a justification for the denial of medical treatment for the general public, and in particular if that treatment is...

Hmm sounds like the individuals in both campaigns are committed to extremist measures which are intended to inflict harm on the general public……no mitigation applied here, throw the book at the lot of ‘em.

Tut, tut, personal abuse……what an odd issue to be triggered by?

I don’t have you down as one of the narcissist gang, they should know who they are, but then again they are narcissists. If you fancy a giggle you should take a peek, then come back to this one. It’s a hoot.

It shouldn’t do, the denial of urgent or for that matter non-urgent medical treatment for the general public because of the actions of extremist protests and their supporters is disgusting. No protest should warrant that outcome as a direct or indirect consequences, and those involved should be...

Sheeesh, the whataboutery is strong with this one!

I agree but that situation is not new these days……..only recently people were actively protesting in ways that prevented the emergency services doing their jobs effectively which put lives at risk. I don’t seem to recall the invective on here being quite so critical on those people, maybe...
