Leeds riots

[mentalcase]

f**king total scumbags, proud to be British I suppose

[BradWhite]

Well the Police only really show up to dance at pride events or turn up heavy handed in riot gear for people enjoying St Georges day.

Can't possibly get why they'd bother to show up for riots in Harehills.

[Broad Ford]

What sparked all this?
Was it the police with their new stop and search laws, searching everybody including the elderly, kids, disabled, etc with the threat of arrest?

The police state is here and some don't like it.

[Tom the Cat]

Social workers were responding to some parents dropping their children out of upstairs windows. The social worker were attacked, the police responded and a riot ensued. If it had happened in the USA half a dozen rioters would have been shot - I bet we wont rven arrest one

[Broad Ford]

Social services were removing children then the police were called. The local youths then turned on the police letting them know they aren't welcome.

Is there an undercurrent of hatred towards the police and government support connected to the military operation in Gazza?
Lots of UK muslims fly the Palestinian flag and have voted independent, rather than Labour. I've seen sticky labels in bd7 and bd8 of Kier Starmer saying Israel has the right to turn water, leccy off and withhold food to Gazza! I've seen Barkley's bank splattered with symbolic red paint in bd1 and a run down shopping area on Thornton Road smothered in Gazza graffiti! Clearly Muslims are boiling at the British state and little things like a police presence in Harehills is enough to enrage the youth into action.

I don't support violence of any kind, but I could whiff trouble in the air after graffiti was daubed on a wall on City road - two walls had, 'kill gora', but the spelling was different.
Although it was cleaned away within 2 weeks thousands of people must have read this.

Tommy Robinson is now on YouTube angrily talking about organising a response to these events by Islamic youths, but other than marching us all towards civil unrest leading to greater police powers Tommy will change nothing.

Two tier policing or in this case no police at all. I guess the police will say it was a civil matter that just got out of hand. Since the Hamas terrorist act in Israel the insurrection is alive and kicking in Britain. Is JD Vance a prophet? Like Mr Blair once said, maybe we all just need some Education Education Education... Before slapping whopping fees on just that. Its going to be interesting on the 27th down in London town. I don't know how old the vid is but... Up Pompey.

They were Romanians that started the riot and everyone else joined in, I didn't see or hear any chants for Palestine.
Let's see who is held culpable for the arson attacks on the bus and police cars, video evidence is crystal clear, I expect nothing will come of it.

This had nothing to do with Gaza and yes the Police failed to get it under any control because of fear of copycat riots across the UK, I know Bradford very well walking through the city centre can be very intimidating, the cultural change is evident, mostly youths in gangs, other people in the community just get on with it or do not bother venturing into the town centre, specially at night.

The Police seem very accommodating and placate the Palestinian marches that happen every week in Leeds even allowing Islamic State flags, swastikas and antisemitic chants yet are extremely aggressive and out in force for a peaceful St. George's day parade or anyone a showing a glimmer of patriotism is soon threatened with a public order.

Double standards and clear evidence of a two tier policing system.

The march (not protest) that Robinson is on about has nothing to do with him per say, it was organised four months ago by other people, there is also another march planned on the same day that Paloma Faith is promoting unity, you can bet your last quid that the police will show up heavy handed for the first march, the peaceful gathering celebrating British values will be quickly labelled an extreme far right thug rut, I'm sure a few will tag on to it but I hope they don't.
There was mention of an Anti-immigration march too.

Labour were begging for the muslim vote in support of Palestine, Lammy was in Israel having talks about ceasefire, so I don't know why Labour has anything to do with this riot.

Note: I don't support any political group, hate is hate, murder is murder regardless of race, colour, religion or other.

PS Stop blaming Gazza, he's a nice lad who was quite good at football.

Police are completely toothless, they really need gearing up to handle riots like this, where is the tear gas, rubber bullets, baton charges and water cannons we see used in France regularly.

Meanwhile thousands of folk incompatible with western life are welcomed in every week ready to turn more of our towns and cities in to the same crime ridden s**t holes they just escaped from, worst of all there is absolutely nothing we can do about it.

I grew up in Harehills . Must be the best part of 45 years ago now. Haven’t really been back, I suspect based on your description of the place it has changed somewhat.

I expect that they'll use the facts that the area was teeming with children under 16 years of age and it wasn't appropriate to tear gas them or maybe the cops were too busy painting rainbow flags on their vehicles to actually police.

As I have said previously we have a 2 tier Policing system that persecutes one and placates another.

The UK is known as Treasure Island, when the pull power is so strong and the borders are totally uncontrolled what could possibly go wrong. We even pay the RNLI to tow them from the channel lol. The backlog of processing is beyond belief at a massive expense, so much so Starmer is now allowing 100.000 to be fast tracked into our communities with citizenship, none have been processed.

Starmer is stupid if he thinks he can stop the boats by smashing the criminal gangs, or by chucking even more tax payers money at France for doing nothing, the only way to stop this is to remove the attraction of free money/housing/free healthcare/education etc.

This will continue to get worse unless common sense is put in place, just don't expect David Lammy to do anything, he wants more cultural enrichement.

Just be careful what you post on this thread, I was classed as racist not long ago for talking about the litter/tipping problems in our towns and city.
Funny how most regular folk on the street know what and who the issues are with , but those in power are continually turning a blind eye.
Glad I'm out of the township now.

It’s one of the great and perhaps only achievements of the left in recent times, if you disagree or even question something they deem a righteous cause then you are then the extreme antithesis of the causes they support -

legitimately question immigration and its impact on life - racist nazi

Question why a man is in the women’s changing room - transphobic bigot terf

Question why we have to suffer Gaza protests every week - islamaphobic scum

Call a jew a derogatory term - hero

Everyone with a job too scared to lose a job by being honest, this country is well and truly gone now, and it will never ever recover, we are simply being outbred, no need for wars.
I feared for my grandkids' future I really did, now their parents have got them out of this shithole, they now live in the USA and Colombia respectively, yes , there are many issues there as well, but both my kids, and the grandkids have prospered since leaving Britain.
I love it out here in the country, if this too gets invaded, hopefully it won't be in my lifetime.

Still not too big of an issue down here in Suffolk MC, except maybe Ipswich but like you I worry what this country will look like 50 years from now.
I love living in our sleepy little village in the country. Disorder in Bury St Edmunds is very low compared to the big cities although it is getting worse, usually involving some of the pisshead retards that hang about outside Poundland verbally abusing people.

Consecutive governments have all had plenty time to do something these last 40 yrs and they have, added to the problems instead of confronting them, now, it'll never ever go back.
It started in the mill towns chilli, now to the big cities, most back in t' day came , worked and helped out ,and were also a vital addition to the communities, it's the 2nd and 3 rd generation and our own bone idle scumbags who are to blame, but as I said, successive governments let them get away with it, it ain't pretty, and it's far from over.

[Sean_Nile]

Saw a video of a man in a baseball cap with the engine bay of the bus open and trying to start a fire with his lighter... wonder if they will use facial recognition to apprehend him?

Lawshall but we're moving to Chedburgh soon
