Why aren’t you banning the far-right agitators?

[GoldMedallist]

Deleting their posts but allowing them to keep inciting racial hatred under the same accounts is making the site unusable. Why should we keep reporting them if you’re not going to do anything meaningful about it?

How would I know? None of them! All of them! Actually, they were throwing bricks so you tell me. The man arrested by the vigil was definitely armed.

@Alltheprettyseahorses are you suggesting the presence of the man with the flick knife at the vigil is what sparked the riot? I am not sure if that is what you are saying.

Newsflash. Loads of them were carrying. They throw bricks at the police. Throwing knives is less effective.

Aren't you going to ask that poster for a link? There's no reason to believe they were in the area after all or has any particular knowledge. Or is it only me you want to insult?

Just look up Merseyside police.

I've got no idea, the riot area is well away from where I was at the time. Ask the rioters.

I assume you can say where Eastbank Street is.

I can say where most places are, I only live a few train stops away and spend a lot of time round the arcades etc there. Anything else?

That's where the man was arrested.

Thanks. That is a relief. I thought for one horrible moment you were regurgitating the far right rhetoric that is stinking up SM at the moment. i.e, all the lovely cuddly EDL mob were there with their high strength ciders for a peaceful vigil until the man with the flick knife was arrested and they were so cross about that they had no choice but to riot and attack a mosque.

I am not insulting you, I am trying to understand what you are saying and where you are getting your information from.

I am not doubting you were at vigil last night

Okay. I just feel like the questions I'm being asked are really odd. I know it was another poster but being quizzed about a main road in the area! Every single member of 3 generations of my family worked in Woolies over the years, my ma learned silver service somewhere in Neville Street. The paranoia on this thread is something else

Who thinks the EDL are cuddly? Only idiots imo. The only thing I have to say about them is that they're sadly far from the worst people involved in the whole sorry saga. Lets all condemn them together, but don't use it as an excuse not to examine the underlying problem whether it be male violence or cultural impacts.

(Probably relevant - we can't speculate anything about the murderer in case it prejudices the trial, it's probably best not to speculate too much about the riots, I assume there were arrests and criminals should not walk free)

You did say that what happened in Southend was worse and that the media was focussing on white perpertrators instead.

Which is what I was questioning in the first place

The Southend rioters also appear to be mainly white from the footage I've seen. Would not be at all surprised if some idiots got confused between Southport and Southend.

I genuinely want to know if that is near the vigil!

Yes. Right by us at the vigil. We went down Neville Street to the seafront last night, it's 50/50 which road we go down normally. Or is there an implication I was at the riot?

Maybe you don't know that on other threads racists are plopping in the fact that an Asian man but covered with a balaclava , so that's confusing) was 'wielding a machete' at the vigil and this sparked the riots.

Those ate the types of agitators OP means.

It seems to have pre planned

Thank you
What is wrong with men?

*Piggywaspushed *No, I haven't read any other threads yet. It's all a bit close to home and too many allegations from flying round from all sides that just don't makes sense from my pov as a semi-local. Southport is the last place I could imagine anything like Monday happening. It pretty much shuts down at 5.30! People last night were saying a large knife, that's all I know and I'll leave it at that.

No really funny and offensive to the people from Venezuela. why do you find that funny. Far left extremist? Very clear to see your intentions. Disgusting 🤢

MNHQ, please, the latest Southport thread is out of hand. Several posters on there need to go. Overtly racist.

It's impossible to report them all.

I can't tag HQ if anyone else can?
