UK far right trouble

[Vic]

Very depressing scenes but this has been on the cards for some time now. Absolutely no excuse for it but it's no surprise.
The politicians have continually let us all down for years.

I didn't see any politicians rioting. Somehow I don't think you had in mind the shit-stirrers like Braverman and Farage.

You can add Tice to your list

Oy you, he's my MP which says all you need to know about the 'people' in my area.

I’ve not seen much news today. Have the mob left Southport yet?

The claim is that what set off last nights riots was that another man was arrested on St Luke's Road carrying a large knife in an attempt to kill people at the vigil and the locals were infuriated and took that anger out on the nearby mosque. I think the "E E EDL" mob being there was always a given, but this incident will not have helped to calm down tensions.

all those words to defend a violent copper not one word defending Southports citizens and the Police that were attacked. Have a good day.

have you ever been thumped to the head a dozen times? have you considered what would've happened to that officer had he gone to the floor? no, 'violent' copper.

Videos are doing the rounds on social media of a male, arrested near the vigil in Southport last night armed with a large knife/machete.

This apparently setting up what went on

No they're not. Why post that without even trying to find the true story? (And the timeline)

thats a lie-why did many take balaclavas? the inclement weather?

no one in Liverpool is racist. Must be all those pesky man city fans trying to give Liverpool a bad name. Scouser cope is real

Not sure if there was a direct correlation as a lot of them lot last night would've kicked off regardless, but it definitely happened yes:

Oh great, more rumours/disinformation.

It’s like people don’t want professional investigators any more. Let’s just believe Ethel and Mabel’s gossip over the back fence instead.
