The biggest giveaway is the number of people wearing crocs and flip flops with socks.
Crocs and socks have become my festival staple. They’re all terrain and I don’t care if I fuck them up. Gotta have socks cos croc tan is a clear sign of a nonce.

They managed to burn down the citizens advice is Sunderland and in their mad attempts to pretend it wasn't a citizens advice managed post a picture of the building with the citizens advice sign clearly on the door

There are a few far right irish folk but in Northern Ireland the vast majority of "nationalists" such was the shinners etc are on the left.

i'd take what that account says with a pinch of salt
It's just being lazy with the term more than anything.

Right wing, Left wing has the center disappeared I ask myself? I believe the media need to be asking questions of themselves. Over the last couple of weeks their coverage of events have arguably not helped matters. The Manchester incident reporting initially brought out the supporters of anti-racism party's claiming Police brutality to persons of colour, fast forward 2 days and we see more facts and the pasting of our Police officers. None of the actions were justified but tempers flared from both Left and right sided activist groups(BLM and EDL).The media then have the responsibility of reporting the Horrific attacks in SouthPort again with a vagueness that caused presumptions to be made. They are currently headlining that the riots are the aftermath of such attacks which I very much doubt the case. I can't help feeling the nature of their dramatic reporting is doing more harm than good.
In no way am I shifting the any of the blame of cul-pricks just an observation to add to discussion.

There seems to be some detail missing. It says 28 men have been given a total of 400 years, that's an average of over 14 years but then it names 2 additional people who committed horrific crimes and got 6 and 10 years. How did they get less than the others?

Also says 'sentenced in their absence', have they done a runner and can't be found?
Probably in prison and couldn’t get to court

I haven't seen much of what's happened later on but if it's people kicking off and singing his name like he has just scored the winning goal, it's fucking embarrassing.

I get that people have issues, I get that people are fed up. Setting fire to a police station, singing his name while he sits by the pool is doing absolutely fuck all but making things worse.
And citizens advice bureau

It is interesting how some people who have no clue about the situation regarding migrant hotels try and spread misinformation rather than have an adult debate on migration

What on earth are you dribbling on about now.

Pretty obvious I’d have thought - others have took note of your behaviour - not just me.

What is your view on immigration? How would you control it?

That's great, good for them. Plenty more have taken note (and been appalled) by the behaviour of the right on here so I'm very comfortable with my opinions thank you.

Utterly screwed as the nhs is collapsing cos there’s too many immigrants and if we remove them there won’t be enough staff

Like many of these issues it’s nuanced

I genuinely do not understand your point

They posted last night that the people causing trouble did not represent the club and there was an alarming number of people disagreeing with them

Genuinely, there are more of these kinds of idiots up here than in Coventry. There are obviously good people who support the club though and the club statement was good.

there were at most a couple of hundred people on the streets of Sunderland, it's a really small number of people with a voice louder than there size should allow.

The centre are at home watching " The Great House Giveaway " on 4. Always liked Simon O'Brien since he was in Brookside.

In the long term, seek to reduce the level of immigration we need by properly funding state education and vocational training so that people are recruited from within instead of abroad. At the same time, improve working conditions in places like social care and nursing so people are more inclined to apply. Wouldn’t change the numbers of students arriving, would work with France to jointly process asylum claims offshore.

Most immigration seems to be either for study or to fill jobs that British people either can’t or won’t do.

Muslim groups gathering to defend/attack the groups protesting. I can't blame them and in many ways inevitable but it's certainly not going to help and fear it will only antagonise or wind up and will get yet worse. Not sure what the answer is and tbh the best weapon we sadly have against both factions is to hope it rains!

The counter protestors? Not just muslims
