Riots in Southport

So the right-wing idiots attack a mosque, when the suspect is said to be from a Christian family.......

I'm beyond angry.Without too much detail member of our family is amongst this as an emergency services worker.How utterly disrespectful to a grieving community and those who risked their own lives to respond yesterday. They are just mindless thugs.In other countries the water canons and tear gas would be deployed and tbh tonight i wish they could do that.I'm not sure I will sleep tonight.The poor people of Southport.

I'm so sorry, I do hope that your family member is safe

"Thick as mince" is too kind as far as I'm concerned.

These are the same people who just a few days ago were blaming Muslims for destroying a police car in Leeds - yet here they are, doing exactly the same. What a load of hypocritical lowlife!

Even if the murdered in Southport is Muslim (and his identity hasn't officially been released), the murders have nothing to do with the people who attend that mosque.

Hopefully, the people who spread fake news from dodgy American websites will think twice next time something pops up in their inbox to support their agenda.

Poor MrJ, sitting here quietly endured my ranting, but it makes me so very cross and sad at the same time.

😡😡😡

Agreed.
These awful people are using the death of three beautiful girls as an excuse to riot outside a mosque. Furthermore they are attacking the same brave police officers who ran to the aid of all those caught up in that dreadful incident.
'thick as mince' sums them up for me.
Social media has a lot to answer for here, so much misinformation has been shared.

Just been watching it. It’s truly awful!

I feel exactly the same Jaxjacky the poor people of Southport have suffered enough. The residents of the street the riots are on must be terrified in there own homes. Makes me so angry.

I agree. It’s absolutely disgusting. The poor police having to deal with such morons
