LOCALS ON THE GROUND IN SOUTHPORT? What is wrong with you? The kid wasn't from Southport. How would anyone in Southport know? You are so deluded it hurts my brain.

The people that were at the stabbing site. There on the day. Of course they would have some inside knowledge. As they knew the victim and were there hearing him shout (allegedly).

What does his background have to do with that?

You post article about killer's background. Call it lies.

I read article. Point out it is not lies about his background.

You say people in Southport disagree about his background.

I query Southport's relevance to his background.

You ask what this has to do with background.

Are you okay?

Im not sure why you’re making out like I’m the stupid one here.

Locals in Southport have been saying he was an Islamic extremist since it happened. There were reports from people on the scene that he was shouting Allah Akhbar etc.

The police, the government and the media all collided to hide this fact from the public.

The article I posted was all lies or PR, to cover up this fact.

Essentially what’s happening here is similar to Hillsborough cover up and you are cheering on the sun newspaper.

Are you going to apologise for repeating the lie that the perpetrator was an asylum seeker? That lie, spread by people like Tate, Farage, and the usual suspects, and repeated by others like Bernadette Spofforth (who escaped prosecution) and yourself, is what incited the riots.
 
You are a massive part of the problem.

Your extreme sensitivity in this issue is allowing Muslim extremists to murder children in our country. (I include YOU in OUR).

By stifling the conversation and shouting the word racist at everyone, you are making the issue much worse.


? !!!!

Literally speechless. I am the problem!!!!!!!

I apologise for having a different skin colour to you, and also for having over 50 years or having to deal with absolute bigoted ****s like you.

You really are the biggest **** I have ever seen on here

You may be proud to be `British, but you are an embarrassment to all us TRUE Brits

EDIT: Go **** yourself

You don’t know my skin colour.

All of this is in your head
 
So businesses now have to start paying NI contributions on an employee's earnings at £5,000, down from £9,100. That's a huge drop.
 
I'm not British, I am Scottish!!!! We Scots have been "****ed" by successive Westminster Governments. They have taken our oil, they are taking our water, they impose legislation against our will (Brexit), ripped our industries from us, bribe us with providing contracts to build their warships. Why would any Scot call themselves British?


Thought you lived in Majorca Ides? And supported Tottenham?
 
Spike Milligan was Irish. He's a good example of how a term like "British" is complicated. Having a passport only means so much. For example, if for some reason I moved to Japan and eventually became a Japanese citizen I still wouldn't describe myself as Japanese.


Spike was born in India, to an Irish father who was employed by the Royal Indian Police, and an English mother. He lived most of his life in London, was a desert rat with Monty during WWII, then years later had so much trouble applying for a British Passport, that he took an Irish one in protest. A very British heritage that, in many ways.

Yeah but an immigrant. We dont want his kind here. We need to protect our children.

Sorry to write this as I believe I am part of the problem

How dare these off white people get born here and pay taxes.

I'm hoping we've passed the high water mark for right wing populism in this country, for now anyway. All that 'Stop the Boats' rhetoric, which imo was simply a means of normalising racism, seems to have gone in the bin, where it belongs.

Different story in the US if the orange weirdo wins next week, but I really don't think he will tbh.

Hmmm, looks too close to call IMO. Unfortunately, I think he may win.

Feels on a knife edge and potentially similar to 2016 i.e Harris to get the most votes but Trump to win the electoral college.

That said Trump was comfortably beating Biden, this now feels very 50/50. Harris certainly feels like she has taken this more seriously than Clinton did in 2016 as well, maybe this might just get her over the line.
