It's mix isn't it, apathy, disengaged, bored, men!

It's very deeply scary

Racist mobs

Hmm you do realise that the rioters that beat up the man outside the pub and surrounding the Sky News reporter were not the right wing protestors.

Yes I saw the Sky one.
The tyre slasher said free palestein... then went over and stabbed the tyres

The poor woman reporter looked scared.

I just saw that on Sky news, and heard nothing of the sort being said.

I heard him say free Palestine

I'm telling you it was on Twitter.

I didn't say it was broadcast on sky news.

Obviously the camera man/women was filming and then this incident happened.

I've no idea who released it on twitter but replies weren't allowed.

namechangedforthisposttt · 05/08/2024 22:24

Majority in these riots are men but there have been a fair few women joining in too from footage I've seen

Where is this ? We've been watching sky and following it online and saw the female presenter but didn't hear the rest being said

Luminousalumnus · 05/08/2024 22:24

The Yardley rioters are Muslim. Well that is what they claim to be and I have no reason to disbelieve them.
No police in sight .Don't blame them with the number of offensive weapons being brandished, but looks like another example of the two tier policing Mark Rowley was so pissed off to be asked about this morning.

Thank you I'm glad it wasn't just me.

PeachyKeane · 05/08/2024 22:25

There seem to be mobs of Asian men now beating up white victims as well. Oh dear, this is just awful from.all sides. Bloody men!

It isn't about poverty I mean you can say it Is till you actually convince yourself it's true. It's really just a violent mob who have been rilled up to think it's about poverty/migraint/saving "our kiddies" and whoever riled them is having a great time watching from afar or crete.

Apparently Cyprus.

CP1978 · 05/08/2024 22:25

It doesn't look like what is happening in Birmingham is being reported on. Lots of videos on twitter. Large groups carrying weapons but apparently no police presence. I'm guessing they are not reporting on it as they don't want to entice further hatred. But the lack of police presence is pretty shocking

The 10pm news tonight says that riots are being organised by Telegram groups of which two admin are associated with Nordic far right, Russian backed groups. You couldn't make it up. I did t notice whether it was BBC or ITV news-it came on after another programme I saw..

This is basically what put an end to the riots in 2011! Rioting while the weather was hot, then two days of rain sorted it out.

Exactly. I know a couple of policemen who say that rain on a weekend night means a quite weekend night. They always hope for rain its their shift!

WillowWands · 05/08/2024 22:29

Just terrifying.

Not on Twitter but sounds really bad

Countries have now started adding us to their be careful lists. So depressing

Idiots smashing up their own area. Not interested in coming to Peckham or Croydon funnily enough.

Right, isn’t that something? I couldn’t imagine seeing these fools act like this in South London. Disgusting behaviour all around

It's not just white men though 🙄

StaunchMomma · 05/08/2024 22:31

Absolute cunts.

The government really need to clamp down on hate speech and misinformation online. These rioting bell ends are just puppets, spurred on by lies and ignorance.

God, I hate this place at the moment.

Well quite. I read that the guy who got bricked in the balls the other day was arrested when police were called to an unrelated domestic disturbance and recognised him. Sounds like the champ went home from the riot and started on his Wife / Kids. What an absolute Prince.
