  1. The indigenous people of the uk are not far right, we are trying to stop mass uncontrolled migration into this small island, and in the meantime young men are coming across the sea illegally into this country and are running around with knives. The last incident saw three young girls murdered . Don’t you think it’s right we should fight back.

  2. This was always the way it was gonna end and still government ain't listening just going for thugs and call8ng rest far right this will end with millions marching to parliament

  3. behind all that is happening in the UK, Ireland is the MOSSAD and we still going to see the same in other countries. we don't need to be so smart to understand that.

  4. So be it, the British are constantly poking their noses everywhere and inciting rebellions and violent changes of government with their yankee partners all over the world, let them try a little of their own medicine. In our country it is said; "He who digs a pit under another falls into it himself."

  5. Prayers for the 3 children. 🙏Such a terrible loss. But these right wing thugs acting like they are saints and don’t spread hate or commit violence is hypocritical. Maybe it’s time all sides come together to fight hate and racism rather than having this tribal me vs you mentality.

  6. i FORESEE KEIR SHARMER FORCED TO RESIGN. HE HAS NOT READ THE STREETS ACCURATELY. THE MURDERER DID NOT ATTACK THE PUB OR THE POLICE STATEION, HE CHOSE A DANCE GYM WHERE WHITE GIRLS WERE FAIR GAME FOR HIS ISLAMIST MACHO IMAGE. SUELLA BRAVERMAN WAS RIGHT/ THE POLICE FEDERATION UNDERMINED HER, NOW THEY ARE REAPOING THE WHIRLWIND IN RAPID SUCCESSION FROM ONE CITY TO THE OTHER.

  7. these are not riots, they are protests under a democracy. thats what uk govt said back in 2019 when the same happened in hong kong. in fact boris j supported the violence….karmas such a ditch…

  8. American version of fact checking is to go after people who debunk what the government want to lie about. Corona virus is a prime example of government controlling media and what can be said.

  9. 😂😂😂 This was to be expected, I smell a jew operation when i c 1. A lot of groups that the jews funded and were banking on, to stand with them decided to back the Palestinian cause! Specifically the blacks and i warned them not to involve themselves in Arab business now they are all the way f'ed 😅 prayers sent!!!

  10. Islam is killing their children. I don't blame them at all. Sorry, our government's are purposely causing this. Western societies have been forsaken. The world banker's are laughing, soon the new currency comes out. There's definitely much greater violence on the way, maybe world War. Thank you, buy food and amo

  11. It’s not the far right it’s just very unhappy people. They was having their peaceful protest when a guy wearing the St George cross flag round his shoulders was pulled to the ground by police officers beaten and arrested. Whilst Islamic Muslim people were walking round carrying and wielding machetes and nothing happened to them none of them were arrested but he’s offensive weapon was a flag..

  12. OK LADS SEEMS M U Z Z Y GANGED UP ON OUR BOYS. GO OUT AND FIND M U Z Z Y ALONE. GET IT DONE HOODLUMS. WE COUNTING ON U. NO COPS THEY TURN THEIR BACK ON PATRIOTS

  13. its the right wing propagandists fault for doing propaganda and brainwashing. im surprised there's not more riots, with right and left because of fascism its going to get worse with authoritarian tendancies on the rise.

    civilians are always innocent.

  14. The government are not listening to the people this is not far right extremism it is the native working class British people. We have had enough we are being invaded hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants. They are replacing us we are the minority in our own cities soon we will be the minority in the whole island. We have had enough so many more problems the list is endless and the government is against us. Racism is just code for anti white.
