to think these people in Sunderland are not "protesting".

I saw the picture of the tattooed thug with the swastika and honestly thought it was fake. Then I saw a live stream of him and the youtuber congratulated him on his amazing tattoos. I couldn't actually identify his accent from his expletive-filled racist rant.

Of course they should. If only we had prison places to accommodate them.

And I keep seeing people saying shit like "Well people are just very angry (about immigration). It's understandable. Maybe they'll listen to us now". WTF?! I'm not angry! These thugs don't speak for me or anyone I know. They sicken me and make feel ashamed to be British.

Im not sure why we don’t have this available. Absolutely nobody likes getting soaking wet.

I tend to keep away from town at weekends but I'm there Sunday for drinks with dear friends of old.

Bloody hope they stop all this rubbish asap. It's just so disrespectful to those families who've lost their kids and to the people injured. Theyre Just hijacking this tragedy for their own backward idea of fun! Thick as a castle wall

I thought the police should be using water cannons too. Whatever the police need they should have. They shouldn't have to just stand there and be overwhelmed by people - men - goading them and throwing rocks at them.

it's not even a question, of course they're rioting and of course it's wrong to riot. Who are these people voting to say the OP is being unreasonable? 😳

A volunteer clean up operation is being organised for tomorrow if anyone is local and wants to help.

Locals are meeting at The Peacock at 8am if anyone wants to join us. Bring brushes and bin bags!

They are the same types that are furious when Just Stop Oil sit in the middle of the road

Yes I saw that. Pathetic

Him and his partner were in court today and apparently he sobbed. Too little too late.

I'm feeling really upset by it. It's horrible, disgusting, violent behaviour. They're not only attacking the police but Muslims and a mosque too.
I feel so sad for all the Muslims I know who just want to live in peace. They feel so threatened.
My DH is Indian and my children are mixed race (they look more Indian than British) and I feel genuinely scared that they might be targeted by some thugs. It's very unsettling. I can only hope things settle down soon but sadly I know this hatred will always be there.

They are

Nasty
Violent
Criminal
Stupid
Racist
Uncaring
Repellent

Thugs

Feel free to add any words you think I missed.

They are thugs and racists who don't have the brain cells required to realise what they are doing is stupid and pointless. They even set fire to a police station that hasn't been a police station for years and is now Citizens Advice.

Disgusting - it's mass hysteria, fuelled by social media, coke and self-regarding grifting racists like Farage and Robinson - whose organisations should be proscribed under anti-terrorism legislation.

No mosques in easy reach of me (very rural, nothing here) but if there were, I would want to get down there in solidarity.

These riots/ thieving/ rampage always seem to happen in hot weather.
Nothing to do with those poor families in Southport who are grieving and worried about those still in hospital — just criminals.

It's just a big excuse for a fight. Breaking shop windows and looting. A taxi set on fire and a police car smashed up. Police provoked and attacked. It's disgusting. Some of them look so young, too - mid teens. I really hope the police can identify them and bring them to justice.

They should all be locked up

It’s a bunch of racist thugs, some from the area and some who have travelled up.
There is a picture circulating of a man with a swastika tattoo and he’s been identified as being from Stoke on Trent. The arsehole has travelled up intent on causing bother.
A volunteer clean up operation is being organised for tomorrow if anyone is local and wants to help.

Scumbags

They should disperse them with water cannons

I loved the scumbag (I think it was Hartlepool) that got his arse attacked by the police dog. Served him right

The majority of them wouldn't even recognise those names.

We have a right to protest in the UK.
We do not have a right to riot, which is what these people are doing.
They seem to be on a Grand Tour of Britain atm.

Yup, they're just finding an excuse to be racist and fight with police. None of them give a fuck about women and children and I'll bet plenty of them are abusers

So many kids with masks lobbing missiles at the police! Wtf? Reminds me of the bad old days of the 'Troubles' in Northern Ireland!
The families of Alice, Elsie and BeBe-not in their name! Shameful 😔

This has been orchestrated by EDL members. Any excuse for a smash up ,robbery and arson and attacks on police.
