But intelligence suggested the threat of violence was not over.

Where's the 3 year sentence for the 2 Muslims that abused the armed police in Manchester
-
British establishment a total joke, having just spent two weeks stirring up trouble and hijacking a tragedy in Southport.

Bloody Dame, more like LAME.

When there is a protest. Hundreds of police turn up to deal with it. Often lines of police 3 to 4 deep. Where are these police officers. When a boat full of illegal immigrants, turn up on a beach. Why don't we get rows of officers 3 to 4 deep? Surrounding these boats and dealing with the criminal offences that clearly arrive with every boat. Why don't we have these policing resources? When town centre shops are robbed every day. Where are all these police? When groups of travellers move onto a public playground and cause misery for people Where are these police? When random homeless people are beaten up in the streets? It's no good. If the police can only uphold certain laws. The boats are coming here illegally. Where are the police?

Was there swift justice for the grooming gangs in Rotherham?
-
Starmer needs to be removed & charged with treason, he's a disgrace.
-
3 years for punching a police officer. Manchester airport?
-
Counter protests with Palestinian flags. A symbol of peace? Alrighty then
-
Mad how all these important people in charge have never been seen or heard of before now.... Almost as if they dismissed all the old workers that done there jobs well and replaced them with fools
-
What sentence did the guy who punched a female police officer in Manchester airport get? Interesting indeed
-
Tbh rioting is a glowup for our highstreets these days
-
I don’t understand the near total media unification on this issue. Biased, one-sided reporting even from the likes of The Telegraph and Mail. Dreadful reporting. Only GBN have had any balance whatsoever. Odd, given the 90+% support for the issues in any media outlet that dares allow comments.

Sky news aka sly news aka fake news
-
I wonder how many will be deleted, one has already.
-
Where is the speedy justice for the two men who attacked those 3 police officers at Manchester Airport - 3 years for punching a Police officer? I saw at least 4 punches by the chap in the baby blue and more like 6 by the chap in dark grey? Any justice for those officers??
-
Starmer’s words put the police in the firing line.
-
Starmer's response has been dreadful. This cannot just continue forever.
-
Only machete wielding Muslims and Far Left chants on the streets of the UK last night. Showing the Genuine problems in the UK.
-
Two tier reporting to support two tier policing.
-
Starmer and I quote said he prefers Davos to Westminster
