UK Discussion for UK People Only

I don't understand these protests, tax payers will pay to replace the bus
it's a weird thing. we do it over here when our team wins. then the losers do it when they lose.

I suggested many years ago that busses be made of ice.
 
So it begins in Belfast - protesters have set on fire someones wheelie bin.

Okay, there's a bus on fire as well. A wheelie bin and a bus. It's not even night time yet, I expect at least two meat wagons to cop it by sunrise. These sort of protests are starting to get my goat though - go to the source if you want change. Parliment. The houses of MP's etc

Looks like it'll be dueling riots.

A... riot-off, if you will.

Karmelo Anthony 'protests' vs attempted beheading protests.

Who can burn down more Targets?!?!? Only one nation can prevail!
 
Just a bit. Here, there & all over Europe - people are pissed
I get it. Obviously I don't condone torching houses and causing wanton destruction, but I can't imagine living like that.

I know many over there may disagree, but there's something to be said for having the right to defend yourself with adequate means.

The houses being torched are HMO's of asylum seekers, however I personally suspect that many of these will be collateral also. The cars especially. So much about this story is terrible. This will likely go on for a few days yet.
 
A lot of rage just under the surface there it would seem. I'm guessing there was significant tension before this incident?
