Ella Baron on the abuse of #RNLI volunteers in Portsmouth – cartoon

A home grown terrorist can wear a face mask and blackshorts, cause fear, alarm and distress.

But a life saver for #RNLI can’t wear their insignia with pride?

That’s the difference between right wing thuggery and decent people trying to save lives.

What *does* the #RNLI think it's doing? First it saves the wrong people in peril on the sea. Then when I want to give it money to help with that, it loftily tells me only a #directdebit is acceptable for regular giving! But if I insisted, a one-off payment might not be sniffed at! I did

I think that @bournemouthecho.bsky.social should publish an apology to the #RNLI and the residents/visitors of #Poole for their deplorable reporting on the situation and their biased support for the so called #Patriots which has led to all of this.

There are some truly amazing people in the UK who will never get the credit they deserve. Then, there are people who think that the RNLI are traitors?! Life first, always. Thank you #RNLI

Prosecuting lifesavers. Reform UK are drowning in their own stupidity.

My cousin is an RNLI Coxswain. His brothers have been RNLI volunteers. He goes out into the North Atlantic if ANYONE is in trouble.
The 'R' in RNLI stands for Royal. I'm no royalist, but I think King Charles should ring Farage and tell him to F*** Off.

Anybody gonna ask the DUP if they think lifeboat volunteers are traitors ? #RNLI

My sort of people – knuckledraggers take note @oakhamales.bsky.social #RNLI

Sickened by the blackshirted "patriots" targetting the RNLI, an organisation of volunteers who risk their own safety to save the lives of anyone in need on the seas, prompted me to donate to the RNLI

You really have to be a special cunt to go at the RNLI when you live on an island, which is part of an island nation. #rnli

No dawn raids for the fascists like they do with Palestine Action and Just Stop Oil....

Fuck the far right!
Every volunteer for the RNLI is an absolute hero!

On a similar note, appreciated today's BBC lunchtime news report on the #RNLI. In some ways it was self-correcting its GODAWFUL reporting from Monday (entirely sympathetic to the 'protestors')

But the implication @robertsaunders.bsky.social highlights here was still present, which is less good... 😬

Anyone else feel like donating to the #RNLI today?

The @RNLI has been saving lives at sea for over 200 years. They're only in the business of saving human beings from drowning, not culture/race wars nonsense.

Only 1.2% of their rescues are in the Channel, yet these Nazis are calling them a taxi service for illegal migrants.
