@BillyBones I do agree with what ya said @gshevlin the protesters weren't even from Southport they hijacked the vigil and started rioting in Southport mainly all far right loons - ex fitbaw hooligans and cause of Tommy fuckin Robinson making statements about what happened - Tommy ain't even in country as he's on the run

Then they set up protests in London after Southport

People really are........ I have no word for what's happening really, no word fits, you ever get that feeling "am I the only sane one around"

I see it, hear it, from people IRL all the time, the outrageous things they say, like they are the sane people ¯\(°_o)/¯

More than 100 arrests in London protest after Southport attack

Demonstrators were seen launching flares towards the gates of Downing Street and at a statue of Winston Churchill.

People could be heard chanting phrases such as "stop the boats" and "save our kids"
