Absolutely no words for it!
In any grouping of people, there will always be one or two criminals. It is a given. Some will be bright, some kind, some nasty, some dull….
It is what it is..
No one knows why a Sudanese migrant decided to attack an innocent man with a knife, stabbing him multiple times in a horrific and senseless attack. What then followed, with mobs going about looking for anyone that isn’t white and assuming they are migrants and attacking them, in some instances setting fire to their cars and homes, is beyond words!
And it is very clear now, that it can happen anywhere in the UK. Essentially, anytime a crime is committed by someone who isn’t white, there is going to be rioting and violence? Is that where we have got to, in 2026??
No amount of politicians condemning it or police out on the streets, will address the fear and intimidation felt by people who are now too scared to step outside their homes. Is this what we wish to become???
This is exactly what those who hate our democracy, our way of life, want to achieve. It is exactly how they would want us to behave. They want to see us at each other’s throat. We are letting them win.
A migrant stabs someone, and he’s been arrested and is in court. The law is running its course.
It is unimaginable that in 2026, minorities in the UK are scared to leave their homes. Nobody should have to worry about stepping outside of their homes!
If people in other parts of the UK think this can only happen in Belfast, well, think again! It can happen anywhere else. People now think they can gang up to intimidate others. How anyone can think it is ok to go knocking on doors to find anyone they think is a migrant because the person isn’t white, is beyond me….
Our leaders and politicians must figure out a way to end this kinds of behaviour.
What’s so sad about this, is that we are so much better than this in the UK. Even the anti-immigration groups in the UK, none of them, in the cold light of day, would say they want to see people’s homes burnt down. We are largely decent people in the UK. And we must find a way to remain decent! Yes, the uncontrolled flow of people into the country, via illegal routes, is grating with any sensible person, and it must be addressed and stopped, but not by intimidation or burning of homes! It crossed every line! You read about stuff like that happening in South Africa or Zimbabwe or some other places, but goodness me! NOT IN THE UNITED KINGDOM of GREAT BRITAIN and …
We must do better!
We cannot turn to such senseless violence!
