London’s annual multicultural Notting Hill Carnival was once again marred by violence, with eight men suffering stab wounds and hundreds of people arrested for various offences including assaults on police officers, sexual assaults, and possession of drugs and weapons.

The two-day Afro-Caribbean Notting Hill Carnival, which has been a staple of the summer in the Central London district since the 1960s, saw 275 people arrested and eight men stabbed this year, including a 29-year-old who was left critically injured after being attacked Monday evening on Warfield Road.

Another 19-year-old man was left in serious but stable condition after being stabbed in Ladbroke Grove at around 10 pm. A further six, aged 18, 19, 20, 25, 28, and 40 also fell victim to stabbings, but did not suffer life-threatening injuries, the Metropolitan Police said.

A total of 275 people were arrested for various offences throughout the two-day Carnival, including sexual assaults, and for possession of drugs and weapons. Police officers were also subjected to violence, with the Met reporting that officers were sexually assaulted and one officer was hospitalised after being bitten.

I looked at pix of two days of the carnival on DailyMail. Few to no English ethnics in the parades or even on the sidelines watching.
