Undoubtedly.
And, as ever, I expect the silence of the left to be deafening.

Undoubtedly. And, as ever, I expect the silence of the left to be deafening. To be expected, and the wall of silence that surrounds most minority related incidents is encouraged by the government. Perish the thought the vast majority should know the truth. |

Plenty of civil unrest reported, but surely that's not the point. What are the causes?
Some blame immigration and cultural differences — and they're certainly being cited by those who are fed their opinions by GB News.
But dissatisfaction with hardship and menial, low-paid work following the slow-down in the UK's economy and its shrinking of skilled jobs on offer must play a part. So attracting hi-tech companies back should be a priority, but the economic outlook needs to be rosier to make that happen in reasonable time. Riots broke out in Cardiff after two teenagers died in a crash – with rumours circulating they were being chased by police. May 2023
Riots that broke out across Dublin’s city centre began as a heated demonstration at the scene of a tragic incident earlier on Thursday. Tricolours and an “Irish lives matter” sign were held by some who were present. November 2023
Police arrested eight demonstrators for a range of offences including violent disorder, criminal damage and assault - with four officers left injured following the clashes in south London. Dec 2023
Armistice Day, November 11, London has been severely disrupted by a series of protests and counter-protests across the city. Nov 2023
TikTok inspired mass lootings give Met powers to put streets on lock down on Bexleyheath Broadway and Oxford Street. August 2023

Yes, indeed. But the point is Pat, these days some news stories are not reported on mainstream news channels, see OP. The BBC is a good example, they will often not mention a particular story on their 'flagship' news programmes if it puts some minority in a bad light. However, in order to fend off accusations of bias they will provide a couple of lines at the bottom of the page on their website, often a few days later. On the other hand if it's a story about a minority who has been attacked by a nasty racist white thug, the BBC will report it for at least a week. Or in the case of Stephen Lawrence, 30 years. It's much like the police approach to crime these days. Years ago if the police were looking for a criminal the first thing they would do is issue a description which always, and for obvious reasons, included skin colour. These days the police will usually issue a description of a 'man' they are looking for because these days to even mention a criminals skin colour is for some inexplicable reason racist. |

And this is why the lefties hate GB news... Indeed, GB News is a desperately needed breath of fresh air in an otherwise left of centre news arena. |

They should have been remanded in custody. When Leonorah, Zosia and Daniel are dragged before the beak for sentencing they should be sent to prison for six months and spend the rest of their lives with a criminal record. |

There is always more crime and rioting in tough times and as the cost of living gets worse so does everything around it.
