One gun shot would set it off, or some machete attacki am surprised a big tragedy has not already happened. Its madness the casual attitude to managing this Event every year. Sadiq is playing russian-roulette with peoples lives, in my humble opinion. Will we see a crush akin to the one below. Or a gang war, or a terror attack ? who knows.....but the Carnival has become a behemoth.

Well PV, apparently, the NHC 'frightens' him . . .i am surprised a big tragedy has not already happened. Its madness the casual attitude to managing this Event every year. Is Sadiq is playing russian-roulette with peoples lives ? in my humble opinion, maybe. Will we see a crush akin to the ones below. Or a gang war, or a terror attack ? who knows.....but the Carnival has become a behemoth.

What you have written is a perfect paradox.
a) some kind of political correctness keeps the Carnival going.....so keep it open.
b) it seems to be way more stabby than any other festival you care to mention ?*....so close it down.
Other festivals seem to be very very different ?

*i would challenge our usual HOL lefties to provide the evidence to contradict my statement. Damn those stabby-pensioners at the Chelsea Flower show.
