No idea what your issue is here, its on the BBC report.
The issue was that social media chatter, not to be trusted hence my hesitancy, was that the attacker was an immigrant, named, that was initially housed in Cardiff then moved to Southport.
This was fuelled even further when the news outlets said “originally from Cardiff”.
News outlets have now revised that to “Born in Cardiff”. Which changes the narrative substantially, and most like calls BS to what’s been on social media all day. We wait and see.

My thought exactly. Children are innocent. They went for a fun day out, did not deserve this and neither they or their parents expected this. The survivors, their families and the families of the deceased must be beside themselves tonight. How do the survivors - young children - begin to comprehend what happened and go about their daily lives without fear of this happening again?

I would never (ever) believe "chatter" on social media.
I consider it largely useless as a reliable source for news.
[ 99% of the time, I only even view it when following links posted here ].
They can commit horrible crimes and still be hidden!!
I would expect following conclusion of a trial it would be deemed in the public interest. Indeed the 17 year old would turn 18 at some point in the forthcoming process if/when charges are brought etc. and lose the right to anonymity.

The only "point" you seem to make these days is trolling topics just to get reactions from other members.
I'm getting tired of it. You'll be taking a break from them if this keeps up.

Farage’s thoughts on Southport…
As Armando Iannucci put it
Quote:
‘People say I’m stirring up racial tension and fear; I don’t know if that is true but it’s a legitimate question, because it can look as if I am, though perhaps I’m not. And you’ve got to ask: is the ambiguity deliberate? And if it is, what else am I up to? Who knows?’
Some might say he’s copying his hero who he may or may not have met at a convention recently…
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump suggested that Vice President Harris wouldn’t be able to stand up to world leaders because of her appearance, adding that he didn’t want to spell it out but viewers would know what he meant.
“She’ll be like a play toy,” Trump — who has a history of using sexist attacks and stereotypes in campaigns against women — said in a Fox News interview with Laura Ingraham, a portion of which aired on Tuesday night. “They look at her and they say, ‘We can’t believe we got so lucky.’ They’re going to walk all over her.”
Trump then turned to look directly at the camera and added: “And I don’t want to say as to why. But a lot of people understand it.”
