I think you may find Wynonie, that there is already legislation covering this type of offence, well it would be an offence if carried out by the indigenous population, its just that the police decided not to act on it, because they would have been accused of being racists or islamophobes by the chattering classes from the Guardian

We all ready have laws about inciting violence and race hate etc. That is the only law that needed as that is what they did wrong. Why the Police did use the laws we have is what needs correcting

Re: Protests at returning troops Parade
Well, in that case, surely Jacqui Smith should have hauled the Chief Constable of Bedfordshire police over the coals? What the chattering classes don't seem to grasp is that this type of thing is, unfortunately, a perfect recruiting sergeant for the likes of the BNP.

I must admit you do seem to be more aware than most how large sections of some nationalities hold Britain in contempt while reaping all the benefits that Britain and her people give to these people.I live in Ireland and can say for a fact that not all but a large part of people here have a hatred for Britain.It seems to be indoctrinated in a lot of people.I also see mild discrimination and a dislike to people who are known not to be catholic.British tax payers pay large amounts of money to Europe and Ireland has benefited well from Europe.Britain imports almost 40% of Irelands exports helping towards employment yet many of its people would not hear mention of the contribution Britain gives to Ireland.I see a similar scenario with some Muslin countries and its peoples

Re: Protests at returning troops Parade
I so wish I could say what I really feel about these: LOW LIFE.... however its not allowed in my own country is it: So best I keep my thoughts about them to myself... but mark my words.... a lot will really say just what they feel about them and action will be taken .... this summer will be a hot one in more ways than one.... I can feel the tension :
Bottom line the flipping lot of them what they have on film and the like... should be taken to the airport and kicked out of OUR country end of:

Re: Protests at returning troops Parade
Being married to the Army, working for the Army - living and breathing the Army.. i see all too much the pain and grieving that families go through when their brave, courageous, loved one has been killed in TELIC (Iraq) or HERRICK (Afghanistan). These selfless people are giving their lives..and their families lives and future..for democracy. They are fighting a real threat to our democratic way of life. The freedom of choice and right of equality. What these protestors are doing are mocking that freedom, mocking our Western way, mocking our right to live as free human beings. It is laughing in the face of the good, the decent, the brave and the general British public.. who may not support the wars..but at least are behind our troops 100%. The lads and lasses who come back need to feel proud, need to feel supported ..need to feel that the country is behind them because they are willing to give their lives for this green and once so pleasant land..the protestors should be rounded up and expelled from OUR country..they have the right to protest..but we should have the right to kick them out..that would be true democracy..

How can this be allowed.
Now this would cause me alarm and distress If I was to witness this.
but is that not arrestable under section 5 of the Public order act?
