Another hotel.
Another hotel.
Ok, just curious….we spent a week up there last week
I reckon the folks cheering them on are the worst kind of scumbags. Happy to encourage others to wreck their lives as long as it helps them spread hate, without taking any risk themselves.
How the feck have managed to do that? You would think the would be heavy Police presence after what happened today.Watching a live stream. They've just set the hotel on fire again, and the people are still in it.
It got a bunch of cheers and England chants.
This country is garbage.
And a lot of empty brain cellsNice combination of flawed immigration & integration policies, , social deprivation, irresponsible media, and a cocaine epidemic.
Aren't the UK prisons full already?
Time to send those guys to Rwanda instead, then!Aren't the UK prisons full already?

I'm not, he's an complete a***hole, I'm just pointing out that Twitter was a toxic cesspool before he took over, it's an even bigger one now, just because it's worse now doesn't hide the fact of what it was beforeNot true. He actively made it worse by severely cutting existing moderation, following, engaging with and often spreading the misinformation himself.

He also posts racist and right-wing adjacent talking points stuff all the time:

and I'm not even mentioning his systemic targeting of accounts that reported on the neo-nazi accounts that are allowed to run riot on twitter, nor the API leaks that suggest some really nefarious stuff.
I'm perplexed as to what would have motivated you to run, erroneous, interference for Musk?!
Why aren’t the army deployed to keep the peace?
If you are cheering on you might as well light the fire yourself, you can still go to jail for it.I reckon the folks cheering them on are the worst kind of scumbags. Happy to encourage others to wreck their lives as long as it helps them spread hate, without taking any risk themselves.
I'm into my 24th year with 3 grown children. If the word wedding come up, I just buy her another ringours was 12 years and “you can’t rush these things” has been a long running favourite joke of mine.
These are the guys dumb enough to turn up, I'm sure there are plenty who are sat at home silently cheering this on.Pretty much. There’s around 66 million people in Britain and these riots are a few hundred coke heads, divorced dads, football hooligans, retirees, petty criminals/ex convicts, some unemployed, racist young people and vape addicts.
This type of “politics” has no mass appeal in the UK.
i’ll just put a /s at the end to show whether it’s sarcasm or serious.
Has the same hotel been set on fire twice. The second fire I saw was in Tamworth.Not really sure if they're needed though, I think they have been told to stand down, can't really see any other explanation behind the same hotel being set on fire twice in one day.
Guess the Army might get a bit more respect though.

In my eyes they aren’t afraid of the police but they’d think twice about having a go at the armyNot really sure if they're needed though, I think they have been told to stand down, can't really see any other explanation behind the same hotel being set on fire twice in one day.

There's only five of them left after the 14 years of Tory cost cutting.Why aren’t the army deployed to keep the peace?

It's because there's nothing else on the high streets. It's either a Greggs, phone shop, superdrug, barbers, nails shop, jd sports, coffee shops and charity shops.These youths have no class when it comes to looting, Gregs, Sainsbury's, JD Sports.. back in my day the feckers were trying to break into Bang and Olufsen stores.
Yeah it's a different one, cretins still near the Rotherham one but police have pushed them back a fair way by the looks of itHas the same hotel been set on fire twice. The second fire I saw was in Tamworth.
Because the government are shit scared of a repeat of Bloody Sunday, TBH I bet the squaddies are pleading with their sergeants to be let out of the barracks!Why aren’t the army deployed to keep the peace?

Yeah this is what I fail to understand. I've been told the police are acting restrained in order not to escalate a tense situation and will instead use surveillance to retroactively punish the culprits. Yet we have lives being endangered, and millions of pounds of damage being cumulatively inflicted seemingly in clear view of the cops.Why are the police not doing anything about it? Lives are being endangered.

Crazy how different London seems to be from the rest of the UK. You wouldn't know that the country is burning. Just went with wifey for a walk (in an affluent area, obviously :P), and saw walking/running white people, Muslims, South Asian and Asian people, everyone doing their own business, speaking in their own language be it English or some other language.
Checked the news and it seems that there have been no protests, let alone riots.
For sure the batons and water cannons would be out if it was some other group. I can understand why they don't want to inflame the situation but if they are risking burning buildings down with people inside no fecks should be given.Yeah this is what I fail to understand.

Not to come across too cynical, but if pro Palestinian or environmental protestors behaved in the same way do we expect the police to show the same level of restraint? Somehow I doubt it.
London is definitely a bubble. Twice elected Asian Muslim mayor, several communities working and living in proximity to another, overwhelmingly pro-European and almost exclusively Labour at a representative level. In essence its no different to any other major cosmopolitan city in the West.Crazy how different London seems to be from the rest of the UK. You wouldn't know that the country is burning.

Not that crazy. I'm 7-8 miles from Manchester, living in a post-industrial town with a large Muslim population. Nothing out of the ordinary has happened here this weekend.Crazy how different London seems to be from the rest of the UK. You wouldn't know that the country is burning.
