You basically described them as gammon, which is far left insult aimed at the white working class.

I have no problems with the insult but because the far left are so obsessed with racism I'm going to point out their own.

Quite. They ( the far left ) will say its not an insult and but just a harmless joke.

That is honestly a phrase I have never heard before hence the question.

I like words and the derivation of phrases will be interested to see where that one's from.

You may not believe it but that really was not a reference I deliberately made.

You live and learn.

Well ok, I'll take you at your word.

The 'gammon' is a British form of 'redneck' slur used by the lefty middle classes. Personally I find it more amusing than insulting.

I think the kind of people turning up to Robinson marches are the salt of the earth.

But apparently to some that makes me and them Nazis in this new fangled 'up is down' world.

You’re really struggling with this “new world” aren’t you. You think anyone who doesn’t agree with your ideas and stands up against racism and hate is far left. That doesn’t qualify someone as far left. It doesn’t even qualify them as liberal. It just makes them human, with a desire to see the human race thrive and survive.
You on the other hand want to see it separated and destroyed. It’s very odd.

Thanks for the detail, I have asked around the 'leftie middle classes,' (You appear to have assumed I am part of this group, so asked a few mates,) and no one else had heard this one either.

As for the good folks on the match on Saturday being 'salt of the earth,' we shall have to differ but I applaud each and every one for getting out and protesting, rather than fighting the good fight on their backsides in front of a screen.

Do you think it is possible to be on the far left and believe in controlled immigration ?

I assume you believe in controlled immigration, you couldn't thrive and survive with more immigration than we can handle right?

You are totally wrong about the meaning of Gammon.

The term refers to older middle aged (admittedly mostly white but not exclusively) men (always) that work themselves into a lather as seen on Question Time. The original meme was the infamous "wall of gammon" (attached) which were all Question time audience members mid rant. They are NOT working class- but tend to be all sorts. I would say that many are Tory middle class types - often Parish council, Church Warden types. Also pub bores and UKIP fruitcakes. But 100% they cannot be described as "White Working Class".
The usual source of their puce faced indignation is Brexit - but can also be "Political Correctness gone mad" and "Bloody Jeremy Corbyn".
I have been using the term for a couple of years and find it extremely useful and ridiculously funny. The main source of the humour being that Gammon nearly always live up to their stereotype.

Tommy Robinson marchers are NOT Gammon. They are just f***ing racist dickheads.

Having liv d in a country with controlled immigration I can honestly say that it didn’t make too much of a difference. What happened there was a sponsorship system to get people into the country. There were so many loopholes that it it was quite easy to get into the country, do your time and get a passport.
We’d have to run a similar system as there is a s*** load of jobs that need to be filled by unskilled cheap labour. I don’t see another option or way around that issue other than what we are currently doing with cheap overseas imports.

Do you respect the views of people who don't want to live in an over populated country. And do you also respect the views of people who believe that more immigration = more immigration = more immigration as we need more people to look after the people.

There has to be cap on numbers purely based land available and infrastructure. What is the governments population target here?

Sorry that wasn't the question I asked. Do you respect people's views on over population?

Yes but I don’t respect people using that as thinly veiled excuse for their dislike of others race, background, ethnicity or difference.
