Shake me up Judy Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Tensions are running high in Liverpool after the knife attack in Southport that so far has claimed the life of three little girls. I hope this is a watershed case, and if the lawyers and courts play the 'mental illness' card again like they did in Nottingham and numerous other cases, there'll be riots in Liverpool. I sense the people have had enough. 2 1 Quote
Non-Believer Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Some "unofficial" reports I've seen are suggesting that this individual was already the subject of MI5 interest. It would be best to wait for more official confirmation though. Quote
asitis Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Unbelievably sad ! I cannot believe the change in the country in such a short space of time, this type of news seems almost everyday ! I cannot imagine how those parents feel tonight, heartbreaking ! 2 Quote
manxman1980 Posted July 30 Posted July 30 It's absolutely tragic and horrifying and I cannot begin to imagine how the parents feel. That said be careful as there is definitely a lot of falsehoods surrounding this and the identify of the attacker. 2 Quote

Passing Time Posted July 30 Posted July 30 watching a programme last night presented by Rob Rinder and he mentioned that 40% of the public are swayed towards bringing back capital punishment. After Southport, you can see why. 1 Quote
TheTeapot Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Bet they were outraged by the attacks on the police at Manchester airport. Quote
Anyone Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Well the UK just needs to rid itself of Islam. It’s not compatible with British culture so they just need to go somewhere that appreciates their point of view and that sadly is not here. The Muslim community in general regard us with contempt. So they might all be better off living in Saudi . Pakistan or Bangladesh. It would suit them better there. Quote
La Colombe Posted July 30 Posted July 30 Err, Rwanda is a mainly Christian country. So is Wales. Trashing mosques for this is illogical. 2 Quote

HeliX Posted July 30 Posted July 30 "Merseyside Police has urged people not to speculate about the identity of the Southport knife attacker. A 17-year-old boy, born in Cardiff and living in a nearby town, has been arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder. Earlier police said the name of a suspect circulated on social media was incorrect. Police said the unrest tonight broke out after calls for a protest near a mosque close to where the attack happened. Assistant Chief Constable Alex Goss: “There has been much speculation and hypothesis around the status of a 17-year-old male who is currently in police custody and some individuals are using this to bring violence and disorder to our streets. “We have already said that the person arrested was born in the UK and speculation helps nobody at this time."
