And sometimes I post something just because it makes my blood boil. Such is the case with these Communist Chinese tourists traveling in the UK who think they have a right to tell others what they can and can’t do in public spaces.
Pianist and YouTuber Brendan Kavanagh is livestreaming himself playing in the London St. Pancreas Pancras tube station on a piano specifically given to the station by Elton John to promote live impromptu performances for the public, when Communist Chinese tourists imperiously demand he stop filming because they don’t want to be on camera.
Does any other nation’s tourists act with such entitlement toward the citizens of the country they’re traveling through? (Maybe French Parisians.)
But wait! It gets worse! UK police, rather than telling the Communist Chinese to suck lemons, have now cordoned off the piano with two guards to prevent the piano from being played. Because evidently the precious feels of Chinese Communist tourists trump the rights of the British public.
“You can’t make this stuff up.”
“Let’s keep ourselves able to play to make free music in the free world.”
Inexplicable.

The “don’t shoot him! don’t shoot him!” part of that confrontation is wild. Yeah I’m gonna just hypothesize there are armed CCP goons and their ‘packages’ walking around freely in the UK, and I don’t mean their LE Bobbies.
It really does feel like every Western government has been compromised, not just by foreign intelligence, but by forces far darker and more sinister.
If Negros may legitimately demand reparations for slavery, the Chinese may rightly assume the role of cultural overseers as retribution for the Opium Wars.
The grievance industry recognizes no limits in the pursuit of its demands. They are not constrained by geographic distance or by the passing of many generations.
It is always best to deny their claims and resist their control. Once they establish a beachhead it is difficult to uproot them from their position of assumed privilege.
Imagine what would have happened if a Labor government was in control of the UK.
“Imagine what would have happened if a Labor government was in control of the UK.”
What, pray tell, is the effective difference between “Labour” and “Tory”, these days? Has there been one, effectively? It’s about the same as the difference between “Democrat” and “Republican” at the national level, here in the US.
Much of the Republican Party is irretrievably compromised. I speculate that the majority of the states, like my own Washington, have had the Republican Party infiltrated by Democrats who’ve been play-acting as opposition while ignoring what their constituents actually want done. You try talking to my local Republican state representatives and the state senators? LOL… They’re concerned with one thing and one thing only: Fleecing the state treasury, and nothing else. It’s all about getting goodies from the other assholes in Olympia, and never mind the criminal activities of our Democrat politicians, like our Secretary of State that has spent state money on monitoring for “opposition”, or the Attorney General who keeps coming up with more and more ways to compromise our public safety and law enforcement. The latest crap? They’re wanting to change the definition of pedophilia and sex crimes, so as to “reduce stigma” for the criminals. They’ve also had the balls to release many of the civilly committed into rural residential communities without the law enforcement assets to monitor them…
Which will, predictably, blow up in everyone’s face.
They’re all morons, all the way down. If the Republicans in this state had an ounce of integrity and any political acumen at all, they’d be making hay while the sun shines and there’d likely be a bunch of Democrats going to jail. But, since they’re compromised…? All you hear are the winds whispering through the trees around Olympia, as they get their share of the goodies from our ridiculously high property and sales taxes.
St. Pancras Station.
Yeah, probably an atheistic spell check program ;)
Everytime I see the name I think the same thing, but it’s St. Pancras.
This piano thing is just the latest in a long lines of protofascism in the UK. This a country that excuses mass rape of children, arrests old men for waving the flag and jailing people for defending themselves against moslem animals. Walk away from the UK. It’s not the country we used to know and it isn’t coming back.
They obviously were not just Chinese tourist, a) since to leave China you need money and connections, and b) they seemed to feel a lot more entitled than the Chinese I’ve met from the mainland. The young man speaking for the group was also obviously a Chinese government official, probably there for the dual purpose of watching the “tourist” and protecting them. Interesting….
Notice to Chinese Tourists: Please, don’t shoot the piano player!
The (British) Empire Strikes Back. Perhaps there is still a fighting chance for the Land of Hope and Glory:
