Ex-counter-terror police chief likens riots to 'terrorism' and calls bid to torch migrant hotel 'an attempt at modern day lynching' as far-right groups share arson manual after UK is gripped by another night of violence
Daily Mail ^ | Aug 6 | By Rory Tingle, Home Affairs Correspondent

The former head of counter-terror policing today likened the worst of the riots to 'terrorism' and called a bid to torch a migrant hotel 'an attempt at a modern day lynching'.

Neil Basu said thugs who tried to burn down a Holiday Inn Express in Rotherham while people were inside should be facing life in jail 'not a five-year sentence for violent disorder'.

He said the shocking incident on Sunday was an example of a serious act of violence that was 'designed to cause terror' and 'people should look very carefully' at the legal definition of terrorism.

Six people will today appear in court today charged over the Rotherham hotel attack, as ministers promised hundreds of extra prison spaces and said a 'standing army' of 6,000 specialist police officers were at the ready.

It emerged today that Telegram users in far-right groups have been sharing instructions on how to make petrol bombs and an 'arson manual' produced by National Socialism/White Power Crew - a Russian neo-Nazi group.

Militants have also been plotting attacks on immigration lawyers, with a list of solicitors' firms and advice agencies shared on a Telegram group with more than 14,000 alongside a call to attack them at a specific time tomorrow night.

Meanwhile, police are hunting a thug who attacked a police dog with a brick in Tamworth over the weekend. The assault left the canine, Vixen, with a gash above her right eye and she is recovering at home.

I guess allowing countless moose limbs in to the country wasn’t such a good idea after all.
Huh, imagine that.

The UK Elites continue to destroy their country's historical and traditional citizens.

It is the Elites in Western countries that support the globalist/one-world government because they believe we plebeians don't have the right to ourselves and our freedom.

They believe they know best (though their governments have proven time and time again that they are, as a group, incompetent).

If the Elites keep it up, there will be another Reign of Terror.

All far left British leaders who have a hand in importing these third-world, violent thugs into the country should be imprisoned without the possibility of parole for destroying the country against the will of the people.

British patriots need to take out the scumbag traitors first, starting with Neil Basu and Rory Tingle. Afterwards, the illegal alien invaders can be dealt with.

To prevent Britain from being conquered, the globohomo enablers MUST be removed, eradicated, exterminated.

It is morally and ethically justifiable for the Brits to start taking out their cops.

Funny.... how it’s always only terrorism if or when there is vigilante action taken against the actual terrorists with these putzes.

Oh no, a Facebook posting that someone in their judgement was offensive! Call the thought police, arrest the monster and put him in jail!

What an incredibly screwed up country.

Sounds like it’s a very appropriate thing the person quoted is an “ex.”

Yes, and that so-called cop needs to be sent to a repatriation facility post haste.

I hope America is watching this closely. It’s corrupt government will react the same way when they try to protest against it. The big difference is America didn’t give up its right to own guns. The British police seem to be allowing the migrants to carry weapons and hide them in mosques. Civil war might be making a comeback in the western world.

We are definitely aligned with your cause. I hope the working class in England and Ireland continue to give their traitorous Governments hell.

Probably not a good idea to post such comments to our FRiend here, as this Orwellian regime installed there will arrest him for Thought Crimes because he read what you said.

Great Britain is no longer Great. It is lost to the ages.
