Some of the reporting is scandalously disingenuous. Not sure how much it’s down to Plod or the press. Three examples.
When first reported, they rushed out that the suspect was “born in Cardiff”. Hahaha. WTF’s that got to do with the price of fish? It’s as relevant as “went to school in Mablethorpe” and is a cynical ploy to disguise perpetrators’ real ethnic and/or religious origins They hope most people will be too thick to twig. Unfortunately many of the thicker ones among us were rightly suspicious and made up their own damaging narrative.
Second, example: “not a terrorist act”.
Third, we see a photo of the suspect as an angelic schoolboy and hear he was sometimes afraid to leave the house. The guy got a taxi specifically to hack kids to pieces (allegedly).
It’s no excuse for disturbances, which were singularly badly timed as well as moronic. However, can’t these over-woke boneheads see that they themselves fan the flames of societal and political alienation - not just here but in the USA and parts of Europe?
Wow.
