Sainsbury in Murray Street smashed up. Riot police attending then the mosque is supposed to be under attack and police in attendance.

I live off Murray street, it's a fucking joke. Protest my arse, a bunch of thick inadequates causing bother and leaving a mess and destruction behind them.
Complete bunch of arseoles.

They're a disgrace to ourtown ,hardly 'looking after their own' are they? Why didn't they have a vigil if they feel that strongly!

Looks like the average age is about 12….this is going to achieve what exactly….?
Embarrassing.

There was a lot of blokes there, lads in their twenties, wasn't all kids.

A lot of them are teenagers but a lot are adults This is what happens when riots are put on the National news. It's a total embarrassment to our town.

I said average age….from the bit I saw on TV…but it’s neither here nor there, whichever way you look at it, it doesn’t paint the town in a good light.
All it achieved was a cringe.

Ok

Or was it mental age….?

What a fucking embarrassment to the town - hope they round the culprits up and give them all a good kicking.

It's complete nonsense and just an excuse by a bunch of fucking halfwits to have a scrap with the Old Bill- absolutely fuck all to do with the tragedy of what occurred in Southport on Monday.

Just opportunists wagon jumping and using unrest elsewhere to justify cuntish behaviour.
Bit like when all the riots and looting kicked off a few summers ago in London, then Leicester, Nottingham etc.

If a reaction like that was to happen surely it would have been when that pensioner was stabbed….but nothing.
So it’s just a copycat kick off, monkey see, monkey do.

Scum will be scum. Just an excuse to cause pointless damage. The cure! A small piece of Metal between the ears.

What kicked it off, looking at the videos it was clear who the leaders were, why didn’t the Police not grab a few of them and arrest them ?

I agree, that's when everyone was very angry and in our own backyard

leeds last week, southport a couple of days back now hartlepool. feel it will take very little for these happenings of all types to kick off in many places across the country especially in the north and east anglia. not sticking up for rioters but so many people have had enough of feeling 2ns class citezens in a country they can trace a family tree well back into the 19th century. as for the new immigrants plus those of immigrant families have been given what they have wanted but they want far more than just being equal and they have the cheek to call it enrichment.

I can only see it becoming worse, the Police not like in the days of the miners strike don’t appear to be so keen in stuck into the protesters and arresting a few.
It couldn’t have happened at a worse time for Labour, the Conservatives will say nothing happened like that when we were power.

Southport incident. Rent a mob have had enough of so called migrants killing British Citizen, so take their anger out on the Muslim communities.
Police won't act on it, until a few days time. Look at Leeds the other week. The police are powerless these days.

Taking it out on Muslim communities?? Last night they smashed an old blokes butchers shop up and sainsbury. Hardly a political act.

Didn't the smash the mosque up on Brougham Terrace too? That's what I was informed by someone.

Only the 19th century? Some people in Wales and Cornwall can trace their ancestry back over a thousand years. Normans go home. Anglo-Saxons go home.

Not the Farm Stores butchers please.

unless he sold halal meat. as for sainsbury why them as i,d guess asda and morrisons due to there owners might have been a better bet. good job raj is a singh and not a mohammed as the vic might be the next target.

Wasn’t happy watching them parade past the Vic on national TV.

Do you honestly think they have the intelligence to separate a Sikh from a Muslim?

"They is brown therefore we have been told to hate them"

Got to get realistic practice Jamie.

TAPS the lot of them.

I really hope that this is ill-timed irony. I’m sure all of the knuckle-dragger racists will have copies of their meticulously researched family trees with them when they attend the riots, so the police can check if they are permitted to be racist or not.

Or alternatively they are just knuckle-dragger racists who have failed in their own lives, want to blame someone else for their failure and are gullible enough to believe the bull spouted by the likes of Yaxley-Lennon or the eternal grifter Farage.

ok i might be giving them a bit more upstairs than what they have. its just been a catalyst for a group who have been looking to cause a problem. if it had been a freezing winters night it would never have happened. in the same way the blm riots and the damage they caused were exactly the same. knuckle dragging racists are not all white even if the media would like to pretend that its only a white british young male problem. know for a fact that there is far less harmony in the town where i live than 10 years back. eventually before things are too late they,ll realise they are being used by the people you mention plus others being used by their community leaders in their ghettos.

The police know that if they get stuck in too enthusiastically they will end up in court - for every dickhead causing a disturbance there's another one with their phone out making a video. It takes a lot of discipline and judgement to be a copper these days, none at all to chuck a brick.

The police really aren’t given enough credit in these situation, which are sometimes lose lose. The work they often do isn’t necessarily filmed and they will often show ‘weakness’ to draw the sting out of a situation and then observe who the ring leaders are. Charging into a crowd to arrest someone isn’t smart. Picking them off one at a time, or compiling evidence to arrest and prosecute later is better.
On the flip side you read stuff like ‘the police used tear gas on the crowd.’ The police don’t even have tear gas!
Every time a dodgy policeman is rooted out or discovered years later it must be utterly demoralising for the force, who actually do pretty extraordinary things with diminished resources.
And no-one will say they are perfect, sometimes they are heavy handed but in complex situations they often serve us well.

As for the crowd last night, it was notable how many adults were egging on kids to attack the police and cause damage. Horrible, horrible people.

You beat me to it and put it much more succinctly!

bit like the couple of previous posters have said, how would the miners strike have been policed in todays world of mobile phones and easy footage available.

I woonder how many of those people who were there last night are reading this..
If you were there or your kids were there I hope you are ashamed.

Identify the ring leaders and arrest them and then trace back up the line of command. The rest are sheep.

In one of the riot clips on YouTube a bloke in his 50s is seen dancing in front of the police and goading them. Then in comes a building brick aimed at the police but hits hit square on the back of the head causing him to bleed and wobble then as he turns away from the police another brick aimed at the police hits in square in the nuts. Now that's what I call Karmer I bet the police laughed like fook. For those of you who enjoy a good Karmer it's called " violent protest sees UK man pelted with bricks " the chanel is called news.com.au. Its a fooking pearler

Well thats 2 bad summers in a row now.

Can anyone else remember them 2 bad winters we had in the 70s?

















Bernie n Jeff.

Watched it about ten times.What a prat!! And someone shouted to him "Walk it off mate"

I would assume the Police were filming last night and will be able to identify the culprits but what sort of punishment will they get ?

Thankfully, they all had their phones out to capture the moment and have surely given the police enough faces to justify a visit.
The arsonists on the police car gave a full practical demonstration and starred in their own production.Oh dear.

This deliberate destruction of property and even threat to life has to stop but it is not surprising that it is happening and it's not as if some have not been forecasting this total disrespectful behaviour. Discipline and self control have been sacrificed on the altar of change of whatever nature and we are now beginning to reap the rewards of that.
We criticise the Yanks over their gun culture yet we have gang culture, knife culture, drug culture,. disrespect for authority and law and order.
We are frightened to confront it and those that advocate sorting it out get ostracised for daring to suggest it.
You can never fully solve a problem until you recognise and admit you've got one and until and unless we start that process it is only going to get worse.
When little girls can't go safely to dance classes it's time to stop accusing each other, blaming each other and collectively demanding that serious steps are taken before it is too late, always assuming that it is not already too late .

This has tobe the funniest thing I have seen for a long time.
After the 5th or 6th time of watching I realised that not only was he hit with a brick coming from the police direction but at the same time was hit on the back of the head, then the one in the Albert Halls just made my day. Hopefully he will never have kids of his own.

This is what happens when certain communities seem to get away with assaulting police officers or rioting in their towns while the police either stand by and do nothing or even run away in some cases.
Its just gives an excuse to the idiots to take action themselves.

Absolute bollocks mate. I was in the middle of it last night, and it had nothing to do with "certain communities ", it was a bunch of arseoles fancying a kick off. Simple as that.
I had riot police outside my front door baton charging a bunch of dickheads throwing bottles, bricks and wood at them. Don't even try and justify these people's actions, it was just bell ends.

Just stop the boats should of been the governmentments policy like Turkey do.

Would of prevented these English killers taking the piss.

To solve a problem ya avta rewind to the root cause.
Not turn a blind eye to it.

Basic Philosophy.

Sorry, I agree this is total nonsense. People see an image on social media without the police in it = police weren’t there. Then people spread the message, including a load of bots. Countering this kind of narrative is a mountainous task though.

Horrible

You’re attempting to justify this?

You missed the point, the police literally ran away from the trouble in Leeds. Actions like that give the idiots what they consider a justifiable reason to take action themselves.
If every incident was seen to be given the same response as when the so called "far right" protest, such as baton attacks etc, then it gives even less of an excuse for the idiots from last night to do what they did.
