I live in England's South East region, and there haven't been any disturbances here so far from what I can tell. I just wanted to point out that although the murder might have been the last straw for alot of people, posts like this are still getting almost 100K likes on X. Vast swathes of people will always be more concerned about "racism" that actually doing anything to stand up for English people. https://x.com/StanCollymore/status/1819442878956884182

Most stuff like this happens in this way. We keep thinking the entire world turns to flames, but really it's a few blocks. The vast majority of the people keep on living like nothing happened.
My favorite example, people set up picnics and watching areas for early battles in the American Civil War.
Most people assume the war will be over in a few weeks. Though I will concern the picnics were only at Bull Run.
Imagine if people tried something like that today a swarm of drones a mile up in the sky would drop hundreds of mortars on them.
It wouldn't be an American war without thousands of civilian casualties.
Lol oof
