Give me shout when any of the above is reported on Sky or the BBC, or a politician condemns it.

I think I’ll remain undisturbed this evening.
My hunch, and it's only that, is this will go on for days. Undisturbed by police interference they will continue to act with impunity. The type of crime that can't go unreported will happen and it'll be chaos everywhere by the end of the week. Exactly because of the two tier policing being applied.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

I’ll stick with my prediction, this will go on until we have a week of bad weather.

The police are investigating the incidents near the pub: https://x.com/SkyNews/status/1820549553029857284

Re: Uk Riots and Protests (2024)

The biggest riot today appears to be Plymouth where the rioters are targeting police. 3 injured so far.

I am beginning to winder, if this escalates, if the army does need to be called in.

Also another reporter on what is happening in Birmingham: https://x.com/JaneRockHouse/status/1820560032972324895

Why don't you think the police will get involved?

I was referring to the content

Quote:
Naveed Sadiq showed us a WhatsApp group he had organised of over 1,000 Muslims in Birmingham who were determined to stand up to the far-right.
But he says he's been trying to calm the anger and urge his community to be peaceful.
The message from older members of the Muslim community to younger men is "don't take the law into your own hands" - but Naveed adds: "Hopefully the police will take care of us but if they don't we will obviously be willing to take care of ourselves."
There’s Muslim gangs armed to the teeth in Birmingham going around attacking any white person they find.

Which Sky saw, including a knife wielding muslim that tried to slash their tyres


And they hope they’ll be protected by the police…………laughable

Either BBC or Sky showed the actual video of them trying to slash the tyre.

The same reason there weren't any police in Birmingham last night.
