Anyone watching the public disorder in Leeds? Bloody disgusting behaviour. Animals. AIBU to wish police had so many more resources to bring consequences to these absolute excuses for humanity?

I see white and black people. Are you saying black people can not be British? That black people can not be born in Britain?

I mentioned football as a general thing

People will join in, jump on the bandwagon.....a lot of anger around right now

Anyway, it's all being live streamed in tik tok

The other thread was bonkers. OP was claiming it's connected to the asassination attempt and the suitcase murders and all caused by the new government realising contaminants to make people do things they wouldn't usually do.

Intersting to see plentiful images of Green Party councillor Mothin Ali joining in the fun.

Do they just want to make their environment much worse than it already is Because surely that's the only consequence of rioting

That would require some critical thinking.

@Scenicgirl, did you stop to consider how your post might come across when you wrote it?

How can you tell from photos if someone is not English?

I agree and I always think that about actual war. All they are doing during wars is basically fighting over rubble and in Leeds, participating in destruction . I don't really understand it but these are very disenfranchised people. They often come from homes where respect is nil, they then don't respect themselves and as a result they don't respect other people, property and authority either.

Yeah, best get Thunberg on the case. Or maybe Attenborough. He could go there with one of his polar bears.

At least they care.

What are you doing to make a difference, other than making stupid unfunny comments?

3luckystars · 18/07/2024 22:45

Same is going on in Dublin right now. Unrest.
Something just sparks it off and the riot breaks out. People are mad and then just use it as a way to take out their aggression and don’t even know what the riot is about I’d say.

Oh well I guess that makes it ok then.

No, it means you have to have robust strategies to tackle all these things if you don't want your cities on fire.

I’m not sure the people taking part in this have an ‘end goal’. They are unqualified, poor and jaded. Harehills is one of the most deprived parts of Leeds, and probably this whole country. There have likely been escalated tensions, and they had nothing to lose by engaging in criminal behaviour.

But what have they to gain?

FrangipaniBlue · 18/07/2024 22:44

RosesAndHellebores · 18/07/2024 22:04

Poverty, dissatisfaction, drugs, no hope.

I used to drive through Harehills on my way to and from work - it was eye opening in so many ways.

Do you think it will happen in other cities

SunshinDay · 18/07/2024 22:43

According to x children were removed from a family.

That smoke will be causing huge lung damage. Poor kids on a hot night even with windows shut and that smoke.

Crowsruletheworld · 18/07/2024 22:41

Won’t the pollution from the burning bus and bins be toxic? Fumes etc?
Very sad.

DickEmery · 18/07/2024 22:40

Their street and around. Nobody is travelling there from Headingly with matches and flares.

Overspill of anger from losing the Euro game

Doubt it.

LOL you sweet summer child. These people are so disenfranchised that they're setting fire to their street. I mean, you can tell them "this is just going to make things worse for you" but that's not going to work, realistically, is it?

Show quote history

But it's not their street is it? I don't believe it's purely residents only. There will be lots of people travelling there just to fuck shit up!

DickEmery · 18/07/2024 22:36

BiscuityBoyle · 18/07/2024 22:31

This is the thing though isn’t it. There is no thought. No result. No focus. All they are doing is making it all shittier than it was.
