RAMROD 117,127 Posted August 4, 2024 Share Posted August 4, 2024 Protests have once again descended into violence, with police clashing with rioters outside a hotel housing asylum seekers in Rotherham. Demonstrators chanted “get them out” as they smashed windows at the Holiday Inn Express before being beaten back by officers. There are also protests in Bolton, Hull, Southport and Middlesbrough, with thousands of extra riot police on standby across the country. Ministers have vowed swift justice to those taking part in the violence, with courts primed to sit overnight if necessary. Footage filmed from the inside the Holiday Inn Express in Rotherham show some of the rioters making threatening gestures to those within, including one masked man who appears to draw his hand across his throat, (Tom Witherow writes). Migrants inside the besieged building said they were “scared” as around 10 protesters stormed into the hotel and down the corridor. Police have struggled to control violent riots in Middlesbrough as groups have set cars alight in what was advertised as a peaceful protest. Political leaders have slammed riots in Middlesbrough as 'utterly sickening' following a far-right protest. Crowds gathered in the town centre on Sunday following a week of violence across the country in protests organised by far-right and anti-immigration groups. The day saw cars torched, buildings vandalised and wheelie bins on fire among items launched at police. Riot vans flooded the area as well as the police-mounted and canine unit. Around 4.30pm, following pockets of disorder in the town centre, a car was set alight on Parliament Road. The vehicle, parked close to Faraday Street, and near Baz Cafe, burned in the road as the flames reached a few feet high. Riot officers gathered around it as other members of the public looked on. Pictures from the scene show plumes of black smoke being sent into the sky. On Sunday afternoon, police released a statement urging residents to avoid the area and confirmed nine arrests have been made so far. They said the main areas affected are Parliament Road, Waterloo Road, and the area around the university. https://news.sky.com/video/middlesbrough-rioters-set-cars-on-fire-and-smash-house-windows-13190938 https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/politicians-slam-utterly-sickening-riots-29676227.amp https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/england-far-right-riots-latest-news-protests-hgvntj7b7 (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ✧*:・゚ ᶠʳᵒⁿᵗ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈ ᵉⁿᵉᵐʸ (*´艸`*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronco 25,158 Posted August 4, 2024 Share Posted August 4, 2024 Genuinely never been more ashamed of my country in my lifetime. Its such a horrid horrid atmosphere here at the moment. Can't begin to describe how angry, frustrating, painful and genuinely scary it is when you're getting emails from managers about taking additional steps to keep ourselves and the people we support safe.

djparky 267 Posted August 4, 2024 Share Posted August 4, 2024 This is the result of 14 years of Tory bigotry, racism and anti- migrant headlines, cheerfully supported by sections of the media and scum like Farage who uses his own media influence to spew out racist, ultra right wing views most of which go unchallenged. But these views get lapped up by the folk who want " Britain for the British " and some of these thugs have swastika tatoos and are of white backgrounds.

Priti Patel calling Nigel Farage a racist for supporting the riots, that her own racist government caused, just for the sake of her own rampant careerism they don't deserve a single seat Availability is not weakness Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
