Sentences too harsh!

No, but if you’re trying to prevent further racist riots it’s a good idea to make sure that people know what a racist riot looks like. Which these were.
There should never be riots in working class communities.
Would you be willing to admit that targets of racism or indiscriminate violence are not just white people on black or brown? Maybe ‘’it’s a good idea to make sure people know what that looks like’’ as well.

They were only 'racist riots' in your mind and those like you.
Could I remind you that they were a response to the murder of three little girls by someone of migrant background, which was another example of numerous attacks. This one was so dreadful that it was the final straw for many.
I'm sure your blinkered mentality has no understanding of how an event like this could create such a reaction.
The authorities and their useful idiot friends just shout racist, as if that explains the fear, anger and helplessness people are feeling.

In any demonstration, there is always a fringe of nutters who turn up. That is never more true than for far left protests.
Lumping all these people into a category of 'racist' is simply a tactic. It is used for control by government and to shut down debate by the left. It's predictable and purposefully reductive.

Back in the 60's you could always rely on the LSE to provide at the drop of a hat

I had no idea that the London Stock Exchange were so militant back then. 😊

Jeez, that’s some amazing gymnastics there, shame the olympics are over.
They were triggered by disinformation from the usual suspects and all the dog whistles worked. They targeted Mosques (even though the guy wasn’t Moslem), hotels housing innocent asylum seekers (even though the guy wasn’t an asylum seeker) and individual homes and businesses of immigrants. It’s the poster child for racist riots.
That a few gullible idiots got caught up in it and have received prison sentences doesn’t negate the fact that they were racist riots.
 
Sounds like he got off lightly. A handful of known incidents of theft and assaults on officers.
A 3 year jail sentence and a 1 way ticket back to where ever he came from and a threat of longer jail time should he ever return to these shores would have sufficed.

If you're going to spout off, at least spell properly, it's MUSLIM. Just a minor detail. 😀
 
It makes no sense to release prisoners early because of overcrowding... then lock people up for offensive social media posts or even shouting at a police dog.

If it wasn’t that terrible incident and murder that sparked it off it would’ve been another one soon after. There’s been a long list of terror related or just evil crimes on innocent and defenceless white British people, often females, because they are the target. It’s regular and ongoing, not a one off incident. The attached rape trials and convictions in Plymouth just now makes grim reading.


Further, the 2011 riots were after a gun carrying drug dealer was shot. The reaction was innocent people were injured and had their property burned down, and the BLM riots (described as mostly peaceful protests) started because of the killing of a man by AMERICAN police, who’d previously held a gun to the womb of a pregnant woman.

If anything it might be misinformation. Disinformation is knowingly providing false information. The details of the perpetrator weren’t known to be false at the time and therefore misinformation.
 
Didn't one guy get jailed for a chant about Allah? That is crazy!

and will anybody be surprised if his stay in prison is particularly nasty ? bullying and all that.
You could opine that he would be lucky to get out alive, if you consider the plight of Kevin Crehan RiP. You may consider a sentence of only one hour in jail to be light. But it all depends on the context.

If Elon Musk does not follow European laws, the EU will shut down X in Europe, an MEP for Emmanuel Macron’s Renaissance party has threatened.

Sandro Gozi, who is Italian but elected as an MEP in France, made the threat in an interview with La Repubblica. The paper quotes him as saying:

“If Elon Musk does not comply with the European rules on digital services, the EU Commission will ask the continental operators to block X or, in the most extreme case, force them to completely dismantle the platform in the territory of the Union.”

The call comes after the European Commissiondistanced itself from Internal Markets Commissioner Thierry Breton, who last week threatened Musk over an interview with former U.S. president Donald Trump.

Breton told Musk that failing to moderate any content on X that “may incite violence, hate, or racism … including in the context of elections” will face legal repercussions and the “full use of [the EU’s] toolbox.”

A Commission spokesman later said the timing and the wording of the letter “were neither coordinated nor agreed with the president nor with the [other commissioners].”

When twatter was a lefty lovin prior to musk aquiring it anyone on the right complaining was told to go away it’s up to the owner. Now it’s actually protecting free speech it’s not good. I would also add that if the lefty courts weren’t so bloody minded in forcing musk to purchase it after he wanted out then it would still be their baby. Karmas a bitch 😂

It’s not though “protecting free speech” is it? It’s promoting hate speech. Two very different things.

It won’t be left or right politics which is the downfall of Musk’s venture into influencing public opinion. It will be the withdrawal of advertising by hard headed businesses not liking the consequences.
 
Driving to Knightsbridge might detract from the spontaneity. One reason people riot is that haven't got much stuff to break.
Pretty quick to get into Victoria from Croydon then a short trip on the tube. Some of the Southport rioters travelled 50+ miles to get there, I think we could make it to Knightsbridge quicker.
