Idiots protesting are streaming themselves live on YT. Looks like it's going to kick off in Liverpool. The police are showing great restraint but probably as they are vastly outnumbered. Doubtful it's going to stay calm.
Wonder if the protestors know big brother is watching?
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

So far its 90 people arrested. That doesn't seem very many.

Currently a Holiday Inn with asylum seekers inside on fire in Rotherham. Lives at risk.
Local muslims in the centre beating up whites they suspect of being protestors.

I've heard some Sikhs are being abused for being muslim.
They really are dealing with morons.

But clearly a bit more orchestration than the usual meet up for a fight.

Starmer hasn't helped with his rhetoric - he's tried to threaten them and it's made people angry

What's he supposed to do, try to reason with them?
IMO this is what you get from years of xenophobic hateful rhetoric from the top level of government.

Try and calm things down rather than posture.

Plenty written on mob psychology - and to be fair who doesn't love a Greggs

Maybe they were hangry and a vegan sausage roll will calm them down.

Sure. One lot tried to burn down a hotel and lock the guests in.
Come on. How angry do you want to be about brown people?
What is the real problem here?

Why is it always shitty northern towns where these things happen these days?

Not many jobs, decimated services, easier to blame people “coming here and taking” the few jobs that are left.

Well, if you are going to riot and trash an area of your own country you may as well pick a shitty town.
Wouldn't do to trash Stow-on-the-Wold.

The hotel in Bristol that they tried to storm is right in the centre of town next to the park.
Stop making excuses for these c*nts. It's not because they haven't had enough levelling up or any of the other brainrot doing the rounds. It's hot and there's no football matches to riot outside. The only difference is this time a few people have been coordinating things a bit more on Telegram.

You sure about that? Bristol's neither northern nor a shithole. Portsmouth is pretty far south. Mind you, you seem to think everywhere is shit.
Anyway, who's 'them'? These thugs are attacking anyone that isn't white with a flag tied around their shoulders. They're not limiting it to asylum applicants.

Based on Rick’s descriptions of crime ridden Cambridge they’d all go back to their country of origin if they were. A cheaper option than Rwanda.

I can think of a use for Rwanda right now.🤔

Bits of Bristol are pretty grim and Portsmouth too.
Look, my position is super pro immigration so let’s not start with the straw man argument I am making excuses for rioters, who I think the police in general go too soft on.
and them in this instance are the asylum seekers being held in a hotel in Rotherham who rioters are trying to murder by setting fire to it and blocking the exists.

To be fair it was me who questioned why it was all northern shitholes. Hadn’t seen any reports from Bristol or Portsmouth, possibly with the BBC now being Manchester based and not liking to travel far for their stories.

I mean, they don’t really have any logic so let’s not pretend they do.
The worry is more people have sympathy with the rioters.
Then again, Im inclined to think they don’t matter that much. Not much happened after the last riots other than 1000s got custodial sentences, years after the fact in some instances (let’s face it, the law in Britain is not swift)

I do however get annoyed at the description of fascist.
they’re really not. Far right doesn’t need to be nazi. Nazi is really quite specific
