RIP Alice ,Bebe and Elsie

Beautiful girls. I am lost for words at this senseless act. I don't recognise this country anymore, knife crime is so frequent nowadays.

No one knows yet what caused the accused of such mindless, evil, lunancy . Can’t help thinking that easy access to brutal video games and other horrors on the dark web could so easily affect an already unstable person. Mental health issues - who knows but for these trouble making gangs to turn on the police is unforgivable. They are not locals and have turned up to cause trouble simply because it is an opportunity.

The attack was horrific and so is the behaviour of the rioters, who should be ashamed of themselves.
Attempting to incite racial tension is not helpful at all.
Those thugs aren’t scared, they’re just out to cause trouble - they have no respect for the dreadful loss of the bereaved families, but are using the event as an opportunity to try to spread and feed hatred. Shameful.

The grieving families have enough to cope with, and those with children still critically ill in hospital, they don't need this on their doorstep.

Absolutely shameful - and over 20 police officers injured, also dogs, who had bricks thrown at them.

How does this help the bereaved?

I am devastated by this. Dear Alice, Bebe and Elsie. And of course your parents and siblings and grans. I believe that hate is an easy response and we should be careful not to fuel hate. Hate is what starts this and ends this. Please send love out to those affected.

RIP Alice, Bebe and Elsie.

One can only assume the lad who committed these terrible killings is severely mentally ill. I also feel so sorry for his parents and extended family. Very sad all round.

They are most definitely not scared!! They are using this dreadful violent tragedy to pursue their own sick agenda.
Like everyone else my thoughts and prayers are with those who are now in torment and distress.

Rest in peace little girls

This pure wickedness is heartbreaking. Those poor little girls and the pain those who loved them must be in. Doesn't bear thinking about.

How does such evil exit? Aren't we supposed to be hardwired to protect children.

(BBC I player this morning, police say 50 injured).

Heartwarming to see Southport residents out clearing up and re - iterating that the focus should be on the bereaved and injured not the rent-a- mob who added to the distress of the citizens of this town.

Rest in peace little girls.
So very sad.
