Na....you're mixed aren't you.
You could be on our side but you just decided to not be....plenty of Poles and Italians and mixed and even some non natives are.
Unfortunately we are stuck with you.

We note the desire for the far left to quickly move on from the disfiguring of a special needs lad by a member of their protected class......and the desire to focus upon the reaction to it.
Your politics created this....not ours.

Funnily enough nobody has an issue with the Polish or the Italians. You knew that already though.
Wow, what a post. Sure you’d be fine with someone burning your house down as long as you didn’t die.
But still no condemnation of his murder by Herr EpsomThree jailed for violence at Henry Nowak police protest

Darren Medhurst, 36 of Carnation Road, Southampton was jailed for three years and three months, while Callum Darch, 27, of St Blaize Road, Romsey and Harley Haynes, 23, of Avenue Road, Southampton received two-and-a-half year sentences.
A total of 12 people have so far been sentenced over the disorder during which 12 police officers and a police dog were injured.
The protest on 2 June took place after police bodycam footage was released showing Nowak, 18, handcuffed as he lay dying after being stabbed by Vickrum Digwa, 23, who was jailed for life with a minimum term of 21 years.

Passing sentence at Southampton Crown Court, Judge William Mousley KC said: "Local residents were subjected to fear, distress and a genuine sense of danger."
Mousley, who had also precided over Digwa's trial, repeated his conclusion from previous hearings that the violence was "hate crime, borne out of a hatred of the police and in some cases racist views".
Prosecutor Edward Culver told the court Darren Medhurst had played a "leading role" in the disorder, throwing two items at police and lighting a burning bin that was propelled towards officers.
His sentence of three years and three months is a month more than the previous longest sentence passed over the disorder.
The court heard that Medhurst, had 51 previous convictions for 96 offences, including handling stolen goods, burglary and shoplifting.
Harley Haynes was shown in video footage with a black hood over his head.
The court was told he threw a number of objects including a brick and several pieces of glass.
One piece hit a lamppost and shattered, showering people with glass, the prosecution said.
Haynes had nine convictions for 21 offences including theft, criminal damage and supplying cannabis.
His defence argued that his involvement in the protests was "a one-off - an impulsive decision".
Callum Darch threw a wheelie bin at police officers, the court heard.
Culver explained how it was "targeted directly at the police" and how the action inflamed and encouraged others in the crowd.

Kamil Josef Klonek of Lordswood Road, Southampton, became the first of the 21 defendants facing charges following the protest to plead not guilty.
Prosecutor Culver said Klonek was filmed in the "centre of the disturbance, chanting at police" and throwing a beer can.
The 33-year-old was refused bail and was remanded in custody. A trial date was fixed for 30 November.
The sentencing of Tyler Burley, 18, of Shakespeare Road in Southampton, was adjourned until 30 June for a pre-sentence report to be prepared. He previously pleaded guilty to violent disorder.

The prosecution read statements from police officers who were at the scene, with one officer saying those taking part were "acting like it was some kind of party or blood sport".
Another said he was aware that officers have received threats which have made them concerned for their safety.
A third spoke of his fear that someone was going to be killed at the disturbance.

Victim personal statements from police officers were read out in court
The court heard previously that the disorder had cost police £443,000 for staffing and accommodation, while Southampton City Council had paid £6,700 in clean-up costs.
A total of 21 people, have been charged in connection with the incident, which initially saw crowds demonstrating outside the city centre police station, before gathering close to the Digwa family home.
Digwa stabbed Nowak with a large blade in December 2025, which he said he carried on grounds of his Sikh faith, then lied to police at the scene, falsely claiming he was the victim of a racist attack. It lead officers to arrest Nowak instead of his killer.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) has since launched an investigation into the force's response.

I’m insured so really don’t care. If this fella had a brain he would have insurance. But yes if no one dies I don’t give a toss. Lost a property before so no big deal. If you are materialistic like you danh I feel so sorry that it’s your life.

You are right. Homes have insurance and can be rebuilt, possession can be bought again but a life lost cannot be replaced, like Henry Nowak or the man who was almost decapitated, who as I understand has now lost one eye and potential to loose another while still in critical condition.
The mental gymnastics you lot are displaying to try and justify this is astounding 🤣🤣🤣

You must've missed my post on robotics and AI. Japan and Poland will be well set up to have their manual low grade jobs done by AI Bots, and be looked after with highly innovative systems, whilst Europe writhes in this self inflicted disaster.
It's stunning that you still have belief that we're being enriched by this wave of useless 3rd World and or culturally incompatible group of people and it's PROVEN that the net cost, not gain, COST is averaged at £110,000 per immigrant.

Ahh now you are wissyng.
Twisting it because not one poster has justified the house fire. I will be surprised if you find the posts and put them up please. Posters have said that anger over a near murder by an immigrant on the streets is understandable. With very bad reactions which are understandable as well imho. A car set on fire ignited the house. A myth busters moment as it’s a 1 in a thousand chance for that to happen I would have thought. Any way back to you and the posts justifying the house fire please.
Burning Cars and Belfast go hand in hand and tbh they are in IRA and UDF territory so a few more f*** ups by immigrants and the guns may come out of hiding !!!

We still have positive net immigration. We need mass deportation of everyone who arrived in the last decade who fails a strict cultural assessment of Britishness.

This is true.
What did the polls show about the public's opinion about mass immigration in UK during the 1970s?
Opinion polls in the 1970s consistently showed that the majority of the British public held restrictive views on immigration, viewing it as one of the most pressing national issues. Major surveys from the era provide a specific breakdown of public sentiment: [1, 2, 3]
- Desire for Restriction: A large majority of voters supported limiting or halting the inflow of immigrants. For example, studies from that period frequently recorded upwards of 70% of respondents in favor of either drastically reducing or entirely stopping further immigration. [1, 2, 3]
We never even asked for this... 70% is an overwhelming majority. Of course the government being the self serving arseholes that they are decided to force it through. Not outside their doorstep though, mind you. As we saw with Green Party deputy Rachel Millward's response to a migrant hotel being designated in her quaint little town.
