It may be weird me bringing it up because the thing is when I initially saw Liverpool breaking into a riot well I wondered whether it was just a brawl happening or whatever but it turned out much more serious than that because Liverpool has a reputation for being rough and poor. Now though it seems there's unrest happening in even areas I would view as fairly middle class.
Keep an eye out when you see the riot footage and look at the architecture as well as the general state of the place. Also regarding Sunderland, the media are just saying it's a generic 'car', police here regularly make use of unmarked vehicles for plain clothes undercover operations. I wouldn't be shocked if something happened because it's literally just one car being shown on fire and nothing else.
Why did they only set that car on fire? That's a question to ponder.
I'm guessing Antifa would either be counter protesting or causing more havoc to blame on the "far right."
Under normal circumstances I agree but this widespread action is very unusual for Britain, in France for example it wasn't unusual to see Antifa staying clear of other protesters for the sake of telling the government to go fuck itself I think it was France anyway.
I dunno about Britain it's kind of the status quo here in the states.
Antifa is wise to steer clear of the Frenchies. Frenchmen know how to riot and will fight back, or even swing first.
At the moment it's just counter protesting but there's already rhetoric flying around that they plan to outnumber and 'deal' with the "far right".
