I know Reading very well, having worked there until recently. Have a lot of friends there; good people.
Everything is not how it should be and people are being manipulated.
Cant see it being anything to do with BLM or anything like that....probably just a group mouthing off to the wrong person who carried a blade.....Hope the reports of fatalities are wrong....it’s just such a ****ing waste of life
By a number of bodies with agenda that differs from public worthy ideology. If I knew more of the details I’d tell you, but I’m afraid I’m making much of this **** up.

Reading stabbings: Police declare the three killings a terror incident
Police have declared the stabbing attack in Reading in which three people died a "terrorist incident".
A 25-year-old man from Reading was arrested at the scene of the attack at about 19:00 BST on Saturday, which also left three people seriously injured.
Counter-terrorism police are now taking over the investigation, Thames Valley Police said.
Security sources told the BBC the man arrested is thought to be Libyan.
Speaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show, Mr Hancock said Home Secretary Priti Patel and Prime Minister Boris Johnson would be in contact with police leading the investigation later on Sunday.
"It's clearly a terrible crime whatever the motivation and we will be making sure the police have all the support they need," he said.
The prime minister met security officials, police and senior ministers at Downing Street on Sunday at 09:00 BST and was updated on the ongoing investigation.
An eyewitness to the attack at Forbury Gardens, a park near the centre of Reading, said he saw a man moving between groups of people in the park, trying to stab them.
The arrested man had previously been in prison in the UK for a relatively minor conviction, not a terrorism offence, sources told the BBC.

I heard three members of the despicably white privileged public threw themselves onto the Libyan asylum seeker's knife, before the cop risked his own life to protect others
Black Lives Matter want to abolish the police

Bloody “pig” should of taken the knee........sack him straight away.
Destroy imperialism.....defund the po-po !!
Please tell me your post was being as sarcastic about the current situation as mine was......if not you TOTALLY missed the point and have obviously not read any of my posts over the last week or so.
Strangely enough, I’ve just been told one of the victims was my nieces A level History teacher....a very nice man so I’m led to believe.
Yeah fair enough, but it's an awful tragedy and perhaps best left at that.
I thought of you when I put it up. You're welcome
