It may have been misinformation this time but what about all the others killings, rape, acid attacks, grooming gangs all crimes that illegal immigrants are able to get away with for the most part. People are afraid now that there daughter will get date raped, young girls have to be thought about needles had it happen here numerous times in the last few years, always immigrants when they get caught and they get off more lightly than a regulsr citizen would. We're paying out of our taxes to keep other countries people housed that are mostly childless men looking for better lives. It's not racist to say that these immigrants are bringing and have brought serious chaos and crime to Europe and the UK and them the government sides against it's own people who are rising up. I wouldn't be surprised if they cause a revolution with this level of disrespect for ordinary, naturally born citizens who are getting fucked because of Illegal immigration. What if your sisters, niece or wife got raped and the justice system let the offender off?

No, they're all not far right, but there are many racists among them, no doubt. The riots are disgusting, and the twitter misinformation debacle that allowed certain figures to benefit from decades long deep seated frustrations in the country is scandalous. I am still not for restricting social medias and for absolute freedom of speech, however, when the owner of X and its employees come up with algorithm that amplifies his tweets by a 1000% compared to the average user, and he uses that to spread misinformation then we have a problem. Who else is getting their tweets magnified and who benefits from this? this is a question needs to be asked and answers need to be sought, not to restrict freedoms but to level the playing field. 

The uk, is stuck between right wing bigots who point to real problems with no intention to fix them, a a left wing idealists who dismiss any concerns people have about mass and illegal immigration, cultural clashes and willing to lose elections over this, fake, idealistic stance. So, we end up with an inept government for 15 years that turned the country into a mess of homelessness, low birth rates, low paying jobs, castrated policemen, dysfunctional health system with illegal migration crisis on top. Jeremy Corbyn could've won in 2019 but he chose to put idealism first and dismiss the Brexit vote and any concerns about immigration, so we got 5 more years of tory incompetence. If you don't want people to end up listening to scum bags like Tommy Robinson, then drop this lethal idealism and address the issue, have the freaking conversation or you will lose come next elections and things will continue to get worse.

That's your defence? The whole reason people are rioting this time, burning down buildings with innocent people in them, destroying peoples shops, stabbing and beating up innocent people, may be bullshit this time, but what about the time that an immigrant killed someone in the past? Since when did they get away with these crimes? The vast majority of them are locked up. Don't act like white people don't commit rape, murder, etc, as well. Right now I'm afraid my non-white friends will get attacked by a group of racists.

Right now the people causing "serious chaos and crime" to the UK are mostly white people rioting because they want to attack immigrants and Muslims because a British born black teenager killed 3 children. The Government is not "siding against its own people" it's siding against people committing violence and crime as they did in 2011 as well and don't try to label all of the UK as with "these people". The majority of us are ashamed of what is happening right now, why is the government not therefore siding with us who are ashamed? Also, non-white British born citizens being attacked are also "our people"

You completely ignored me why people didn't riot when Lucy Letby (a white woman) killed 7 infants, or when Kyle Clifford (a white man) killed a mother and her 2 daughters with a crossbow, or when Marcus Monzo (a white man) killed a black boy with a sword. I'll say again, we understood those people didn't represent entire communities but we are unable to understand that a Black British lad doesn't represent all immigrants and Muslims.

Can this be moved to the Political threads?
I don't want to have to block out general discussions from appearing in the feed.

Lol, seemed on topic to me.  I agree with Tober's point.  Am I not allowed to agree with his point?  

I think labels are wrong, tried to say as much but was shut down.

If you are embarrassed, that isn't my problem.  

I'm sure you have yet another label coming my way.  Labeling seems to be your jam.  

You see it all the time. People getting prosecuted over mean tweets, Facebook posts and the like but grooming gangs let off with a slap on the wrist or given lesser sentences. And I didn't ignore you, it goes without saying this is the straw that broke the camels back like in 2011 and with George Floyd, people aren't going to riot after every death cause there'd be riots every week. This is the breaking point. 

These riots are happening due to the sheer frustration the people are feeling about uncontrolled mass immigration and the crimes that many of them are committing when they come here. We are a welcoming country, but you need to obey our laws and accept our traditions and culture. Otherwise you are not welcome anymore.

Oh, I' sorry. I didn't realise there was a politics option. Apologies. 

The UK is a multicultural country for decades now, people never complained and were only lightly xenophobic which shows it's the crimes that they are committing that has people pissed off rather than the people themselves. It's basic common sense yet the Governemnt goes straight to the racist card. It's so frustrating. The UK had an ethnic Prime Minister just a fortnight ago for F sake.
