Same happened in Dublin earlier in the year. Kids were stabbed by an immigrant (who was here for something like 20 years) and immediately Twitter and Telegram went off and a false name was circulating as a fresh off the boat immigrant, cue riots.

bickster Posted August 6 Moderator Share Posted August 6 Tonight is a "protest" outside an asylum centre in Edge Hill It's also the first time I've seen the local Anti-Fascist group actually promote a counter protest. This lot are the ones that normally organise them It's literally opposite a very old friends house. He'll be deafened by the strains of the Benny Hill Theme and the sound systems the anti-fascist lot will bring with them But I seriously hope for his sake that it doesn't get ugly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the one I was talking about, I thought it was after Christmas, but sure, there ya go. Yes there have been a few clashes and attacks but nothing to the scale of this one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Dublin_riot Quote The 2023 Dublin riot took place on the evening of 23 November 2023 in Dublin, Ireland and involved multiple incidents of vandalism, arson, and looting in the city centre as well as assaults on Gardaí (Irish police) and members of the public.[5] Gardaí described the riot as the most violent in modern Dublin history, far surpassing the 2006 riots.[6] Initial estimates by Dublin City Council suggested that the damage could cost up to €20 million,[7] while then-Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, stated that it could cost "tens of millions".[8] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 I work in town, just opposite The Wesleyan, my boss has just phoned me up and told me that the office is closed tomorrow and that everyone is to work from home because "things are escalating rapidly" and there is some protest planned for 8pm but they are worried that if the weather is decent people will congregate earlier and the office workers could get caught up in any trouble. How accurate that is I don't know but that's what I've been told, you might want to avoid town at 8pm tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is supposedly a planned gathering at the Refugee and migrant centre on Frederick Street, B1 3HN at 8pm. Safe to day the congregating will be from 5pm onwards - I would say after people finish work but not sure all the neanderthals have jobs because the foreigners have taken them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll probably have to see what the night brings as rioting tends to be an evening sport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 They’re basically targeting locked buildings. Big tough men lobbing bricks at doors and windows. They don’t seem to actually have the balls to engage with actual people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
