@TheVibeShift @TrueSlazac lived in la chapelle for a year and it was great, never had any problems with crime. have you ever considered that the streamers you watch may be somewhat non-representative

Mexico are part-hosting a World Cup but the World Cup final is not going to be held in the Azteca? An absolute travesty Im afraid. FIFA has no sense of historical symbolism or continuity with its own past.

“What you’re seeing is a race based pogrom, we are seeing men going door to door asking to 'get the foreigners out' based exclusively on the colour of their skin.”

@Mr_Considerate sorry is this genuinely trying to argue that Ireland's problem is that it doesn't have enough Farage style politicians

[Here's What I Reckon: @angryaboutbikes]

Talking about “rising tensions” or “unaddressed concerns” without explicitly mentioning that the concern is “there’s people who aren’t white living near me, and I’m prepared to use violence to change that” is fash talk too

Strange to think that the far right probably did more criminal damage in a single night than Palestine Solidarity movements have done in the past three years.

Two tier policing, indeed.

[David Jamieson @David_Jamieson7]

The sheer diversity of those attacked across the UK last night obliterates the claims of concerns over crime, ‘cultural difference’, or even migration.

The common denominator was skin colour. The thugs openly said they were hunting for black people.

[Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar]

Crime is now being viewed through an entirely racialised lens – but only when the perpetrators aren't white.

When Chas Corrigan stabbed a Saudi student to death, or Paul Doyle mowed down Liverpool fans, white people didn't have to fear being a target of collective retaliation.

england fans if you’re in the usa for the world cup, you’re allowed some football hooliganism, for a treat

[🌍 @monopsnoopy]

it's wild that the last World Cup in a footballing country that wasn't a dictatorship was more than a decade ago

[T 🇫🇷 @Talhaa10_]

giving the world cup to the usa was a stupid decision.

this tournament was supposed to bring the world together. instead we’re talking about shootings, visa issues, travel restrictions and whether fans from certain countries will even be able to attend

that's great and all but I'm not sure if I would be tweeting like this if the result of all this 'contesting' was my guy polling 40 points behind jordan bardella

El trabajo que hace Francia Insumisa es el ejemplo para el conjunto de izquierdas populares europeas: disputar la patria, la bandera, el himno desde lo popular.

Mucho más potente que las Identity Policies de la izquierda americana, basada en la enunciación y la fragmentación de identidades. Aquí da igual color de piel, género, orientación sexual: la idea es ser todos Uno, pueblo conquistando derechos.

Pls let's never give the world cup to the Americans again. We need to give it to a football-loving nation, somewhere with its own football culture that we can all celebrate.

Because it has higher taxes to start with, having raised them in the 80s while Thatcher cut them, and used those higher taxes and lower debt to invest heavily in the foundations of growth such as transport and R&D giving it an economy that today is over 30% stronger than Britain.

You say that post-Floyd DEI training created the policing culture that killed Henry Nowak. This is testable. If you're right, the pattern should begin after 2020. It doesn't.

Christopher Alder, 1998. Falklands veteran. Dragged handcuffed and unconscious into a Hull custody suite. Left face down on the floor. Officers stood around while he choked to death. Ten minutes before anyone helped. Inquest: unlawful killing. Five officers charged. All acquitted.

Sean Rigg, 2008. Schizophrenic man, died at Brixton police station after restraint. Inquest found "unsuitable and unnecessary force" and police failings "more than minimally" contributed to his death.

Robert Edwards, 2011. Died in a Suffolk cell. The IPCC found police "failed to take appropriate care" and didn't carry out proper welfare checks. The coroner said he should never have been deemed fit for detention.

Wayne Couzens, 2015–2021. Reported for indecent exposure in 2015. Kent Police had his name, address, and plate number. The investigating sergeant knew his brother, also a police officer. No action. Failed vetting twice, still became a Met officer. Exposed himself days before murdering Sarah Everard. The investigating officer lied about CCTV. Three forces had twenty years of red flags. Nothing to do with DEI

Post-Floyd, still no DEI involvement: Stephen Reardon, 2023, had seizures in a police van while the officer said he was "playing games". Died. Jerome Cowan, 2022, found unresponsive in a library, officers failed to provide first aid. Died. A man at St Erth, 2022, left drunk and vulnerable outside a railway station on a cold night, officers drove past without stopping. Died. All officers dismissed or facing gross misconduct.

Same pattern every time. A person in distress needs help, officers dismiss it or walk away. It happened in 1998, 2008, 2011, 2022, 2023, and 2025. DEI didn't create it. It predates it by a generation.

You also claim "determined, institutional silence". The Speaker acknowledged the case on 1 June. The Home Secretary called it "a horrifying act" and Digwa's false accusation "an evil act" in an oral statement to the Commons on 2 June. Debated in both Houses. Starmer and Baddenoch clashed over it. Front-page news for a week. There is no silence. You invented it because your baseless argument needs it.

You ask pretentiously what you call a system where a dying teenager's word counts for less than his killer's.

I'd ask you: what do you call a system where Christopher Alder choked to death on a custody floor in 1998 while officers stood around, and twenty-seven years later Henry Nowak bled to death saying the same words?

That is an ideology. But not the one you're describing. It's an institutional ideology of indifference to people in police custody, and it has been killing people for decades.

Blaming a training course that's existed for five years for a rot that's existed for hundreds of years isn't analysis. It's a deflection that protects the actual dangerous ideology.

[Thanos Angelopoulos @Th_Angelopoulos]

I call BS.

The facts are these:
Henry Nowak told officers he'd been stabbed. He told them he couldn't breathe. An officer replied, “I don't think you have, mate”. They dragged him along the ground and handcuffed him. He died before anyone called an ambulance.

No DEI course teaches you to ignore a dying man. Officers have a duty to assess injured persons, call for medical assistance, and not take one party's word as gospel. They failed on all three.

This is incompetence repackaged as ideological victimhood. “DEI made us feel certain ways” shifts anger from officers who let a teenager die onto a culture-war target. That's their defence strategy.

Henry told them he was dying. They didn't listen. They didn't follow protocol. That's a conduct and skill problem, not a DEI problem.

[Kakababu's Exile in England 🇵🇸🍁 @ShinMarginalScr]

One of the reasons I despise the Anglo Left’s blind envy of the Continent is this: there’s a tendency to throw away the decent things about Britain alongside it.

And frankly, if you’re playing to a racist moral panic about Sikhs now, I think you should be cast out of the Left.
