    And if he was mentally ill and/or had a breakdown etc.? This conversation has been had on here before, but to me there is a difference between a terrorist attack with the aim to kill and maim and someone just flipping. I have seen mental health close up front and what it can do to people. I...

    It's still not the norm though is it. This seems to have happened because they heard the bloke who did it was a refugee/immigrant. How much violence was there re Sarah Everard? Again, genuine question, because I don't know. I just heard there were protests. Did that turn extremely violent?

    I would like to wait for the facts myself. Happy to call him a c*not or whatever then.

    There's violence and mayhem every time a black person dies? Are you talking about the US?

    That's not my logic at all. I am asking why they were on the streets. They were angry. What were they angry about? People actually had placards with "I am angry" written on them . The bloke said the vast majority were law-abiding. There seemed to be an awful lot of violence. I am just puzzled...

    Why were they on the streets? Protesting? Protesting against what? There were trouble makers obviously. What were the law-abiding ones on the streets for? Genuine question. I'm not saying everyone was causing trouble, but why were people piling on the streets? The only conclusion surely is...

    But when there's a murder, usually people don't all pile on to the streets do they?

    If that is indeed true, then it really should have been reported.

    Thing is there, he says most that came on to the streets were law-abiding citizens, but weren't they only out on the streets because of the story spreading all over social media? Has to be because of what they heard on social media, surely. Hoards of people don't usually go out on the streets...

    Part of the problem is that stuff is out on social media before the news in a lot of cases and people can see things for themselves rightly or wrongly before it’s reported. This really puts more emphasis on the media to report things clearly when they do publish it to stop any ambiguity or...

    For all this notion of the BBC not being impartial and left leaning, you might be interested to know that 8 BBC journalists have written a letter complaining about the BBC's pro Israel stance during this current war. As for this stabbing incident, it seems an awful lot of people jumped the gun...

    There does seem to be a lot of imagination on this thread for sure.

    Well, yes, I would suspect he has more knowledge as a journalist than we all do on here as top rate, football managers

    If it's true that the individual involved was an Irish citizen and had been in the country for 20 years, it makes the whole thing an embarrassing mess doesn't it. The fire brigade say one of the first calls they received was in regard to someone fire- bombing a refugee centre. So it seems...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Yup, I heard that. Which renders it all totally pointless.

    I was only asking a genuine question, not doubting his post. I just wondered where he heard it, because I hadn't come across anything myself. 🙄

    Watched the Sky film "The Boy Who Lived" about the Harry Potter stunt double who got paralysed on set. Thought it was really, really brilliant. So heartwarming and inspiring. Thoroughly recommend it.
