Incident shocks quiet area of Southport published at 15:00 15:00

Kaleigh Watterson Reporting from Southport

Picture of media at the scene There's a huge media presence on this quiet street.

It's usually a quiet area that's not used to seeing this sort of thing here. I grew up around the corner, and it’s not what you expect in this very residential part of Southport – not far from the town street.

It’s becoming daily. It’s going to break. Banning films. Banning political parties. Mass stabbings. Mass rapes. People can only take so much.

“Colin Parry, owner of Masters Vehicle Body Repairs on Hart Street, said he believed six or seven “young girls” had been stabbed.”

>> People can only take so much.

History teaches us: People deprived of effective weapons can be forced to take a LOT.

We're hearing from Merseyside police commissioner Emily Spurrell now, who says a man has been arrested following reports of a stabbing in Southport this morning.

No description. Was this man shouting anything about the snack bar, by any chance?

The Mirror [UK] is reporting that the stabbing occurred at a children’s yoga dance class.

I feel sorry for the UK 🇬🇧, although they did arguably bring it on themselves.

True...but the working class in the UK are a rough lot, they’ve been starved of leadership and representation. It’s why they’re so scared of Tommy Robinson.

What timing. From 3 weeks ago...

Jubilant Labour secures historic Southport victory

From last month...

The famous UK seaside town in 'serious decline' as 'nobody stays longer than 3 hours' Southport in Merseyside used to attract thousands of holidaymakers, but the resort is a shadow of its former glory, some locals say.

I don’t think the UK’s Deep State is scared of Robinson at the moment.

Meanwhile...

8 children stabbed near Merseyside. Looks like the perpetrator checked the police calendar beforehand…

> People can only take so much. <

Unless they are losing their country slowly, in a steady trickle over time. Then folks will do little or nothing. They won’t even vote to save themselves.

True in the UK and other Western countries. Probably also true here in the US.

I’d put money on the opposite. They’ve tried to kill the man more than once - by finding any frivolous infraction to throw him in prison, in the Muslim wing. They’re not scared - they’re terrified.

I’ve been watching him for almost 15 years. When the State tries to destroy somebody, as they have with him, they’re very concerned. I doubt there’s a politician in the UK that could rally crowds like TR did on Saturday.
