STNGRflipped into Things that make you go Hmmm...UK: Londoners "disgusted by" racism riots
London, United Kingdom - August 07, 2024 London residents have condemned the riots started by far-right protesters across the UK following the murder of three girls in Southport late last month. The UK has been gripped by unrest and what Prime Minister Keir Starmer called "far-right thuggery" after three young girls were killed and several others injured in a stabbing by a 17-year-old boy on July 29 in the northwest town of Southport. The violence broke out after social media posts falsely claimed that the suspected attacker was a Muslim asylum seeker. In interviews with China Global Television Network (CGTN), many Londoners expressed their opposition to the rioters. Oli said people are "disgusted by" the issue, meanwhile Natalie echoed that "the riots are disgusting, these people are awful". The interviewees also showed their support to counterprotesters who have been fighting racism, and expressed their concerns on the UK's image to the rest of the world. Many interviewees believe the measures currently taken by the government are effective to quash the riots, while some others calling for more approaches. Shotlist: London, UK - Aug 7, 2024: 1.
