A group calling themselves Raise the Colours are trying to divide Stirchley by putting English flags up and intimidating people that disagree with them.

I was just about to subscribe to this, but noticed the Twitter logo. Any chance you could replace the Twitter logo with a Bluesky one?

They went on to say "This quote felt uncomfortably relevant...

”The strong presence of the far right is met with no counter-narrative from governments condemning them or proposing an alternative to border securitization.""

I'm guessing that you're referring to hilariously inept Your Party and the hilariously named KitKat guy at Brighton?

I think there are probably more people that can tell the difference between vision, strategy and tactics than you give credit.
