🇻🇪‼️| Diosdado Cabello comunicó que el ingreso a La Guaira está restringido. De diversas formas, los venezolanos están denunciando que Cabello está controlando el ingreso de ayuda a la zona más dañada. Además, un audio del alcalde de Acarigua, José Ángel López, reveló que la orden de verificar y desmantelar los centros de acopio impulsados por la oposición habría sido dada por el propio Diosdado Cabello.
Keir Starmer’s statement on the Belfast riots has triggered a firestorm of backlash online.
Yesterday, the Prime Minister posted condemning the “shocking” disorder in north Belfast, calling for calm and saying there is “no justification” for the violence or those “encouraging it online.”
What he didn’t mention was the brutal knife attack the night before — local man Stephen Ogilvie stabbed multiple times in the eye and neck by a Sudanese asylum seeker. I analysed the replies to Starmer’s post (high-engagement + latest). The results are striking:
Support for Starmer: just 1 reply (≈2%)
Against Starmer: 98%
The overwhelming majority of replies slammed him for completely ignoring the root cause of the unrest: years of open-border policies, small boats, and the failure to deport failed asylum seekers. People are furious that Starmer focused on the riots while staying silent on the stabbings, grooming gangs, and knife crime that have left communities terrified.
Key themes repeated across hundreds of replies:“You opened the borders — now deal with the consequences”
Accusations of two-tier policing (why no similar outrage when other communities rioted in Leeds or Birmingham?)
“Blood on your hands” for enabling this situation
Demands for immediate action: mass deportations, secure borders, and putting British citizens first
The language is raw and angry — “traitor”, “gaslighting”, “enough is enough”. Even moderate voices said the violence is wrong, but understandable after repeated failures to protect ordinary people. This isn’t just a few keyboard warriors.
The reply ratio shows a deep, widespread frustration with Labour’s approach to immigration and crime. Public anger is off the charts — and it’s only growing.What do you think? Is Starmer listening, or will this just be dismissed as “far-right” noise again?
Keir Starmer’s post condemning the Belfast riots has been met with overwhelming backlash.Out of ~50 high-engagement and latest replies analysed:Support: 1 reply (≈2%)
Against: 98%
Main themes: Starmer is accused of ignoring the root cause (Sudanese asylum seeker knife attack + open borders policy), hypocrisy on “two-tier” policing, and having “blood on his hands.” Users demand mass deportations and border control, calling his statement deflection and gaslighting.Public anger is off the charts.
Watching the scenes unfolding in Northern Ireland from afar is difficult.
I’ve lived in South Korea for 12 years now, and in all that time I have never personally seen or witnessed violence remotely like the horrific scenes from Belfast this week. Watching that attack, and now the unrest afterwards, is deeply saddening.
People back home are clearly angry. Many feel unheard. Concerns around public safety, immigration, trust in institutions, and repeated violent incidents cannot simply be ignored or dismissed. Pretending frustration does not exist only deepens division.
But we must also be honest: burning homes, targeting families, intimidation, and mob violence are not the answer. Innocent people should never pay the price for political failures or public anger.
Northern Ireland knows better than most where uncontrolled anger can lead.
People absolutely have the right to protest, demand answers, and pressure politicians for change. But it must be organized, lawful, disciplined, and focused on outcomes, not chaos.
Peaceful, controlled protest is strength. Violence only weakens the message.
Northern Ireland deserves better.
I was very glad to see the police immediately go to the aggressor. After watching the Nowak video, I was left feeling ill at how the police handled it. Clearly they should have noticed he was a victim, laying already half dead on the floor, yet was still handcuffed for alleged racism. Meanwhile the actual aggressors stood by complaining like kindergarten students.
The violence and intimidation happening now is wrong. Innocent families should never be targeted or driven from their homes. But people also need to stop pretending these reactions happen in a vacuum.
Public anger does not appear out of nowhere. Many people feel there is a repeated pattern of horrific violent incidents followed by brief outrage, political statements, then little meaningful discussion about the wider causes or prevention.
Examples:
• Lee Rigby — Woolwich, London (May 2013)
• Nottingham attacks — Nottingham, England (June 2023)
• Southport child murders — Southport, England (July 2024)
• Henry Nowak case — Northern Ireland (2025)
• Belfast knife attack — North Belfast, Northern Ireland (June 2026)
Too often, the conversation quickly shifts entirely to condemning riots and protests, which should absolutely be condemned when they become violent or target innocent people, while avoiding the harder conversation about why public trust is breaking down in the first place.
If governments and media want calm, they also need to seriously address what many people see as root causes: public safety, failures in systems, integration, criminality, deportation enforcement, and the growing feeling among ordinary people that concerns are dismissed until another horrific incident happens.
You can condemn violence, intimidation, and racism against innocent people while also demanding serious conversations about public safety and immigration policy. Both things can be true.
@KellyMatshall Sadly this is a result of failed government policies, placing locals at risk, and completely ignoring cries for help. It will get worse. Much pain and retribution will follow.
@ToonDazza@RoyalFamily@grok is islam a religion of peace? Given history and current global incidents, for example, executions for blasphemy in majority Islamic countries, can this statement be true?
