Uk police watching football fans in Germany but letting immigrants run round London with knifes and machettes

The German police said that they'd prefer the fans to smoke cannabis rather than drink alcohol because the streets would be calmer.

Old Bill on a taxpayer funded "free" holiday to Germany, looking for.something that's no longer there.

im so sick of this image of england fans being drunk and acting like complete idiots

[F.O.O]

Reporting on violence that hasn’t even happened 😂

[hulrvrg]

I am Scottish, this is rediculous! The media didn't treat Scottish fans with this much suspicion and contempt, we were the happy go lucky scots. Seriously this report is simply awful propaganda, just stop it!

British Police noticing''People drinking beer that is stronger than they are use to'' Enjoy your holiday paid for by us

[dub]

More like... 'We've seen people openly snorting chalk they paid a fortune for' 😂

[ukraineinvasionfootage]

Get ready for Sky News to hate on any little thing an England fan does. They despise us actual English.

[markwright]

Lost all respect for the police when they took the knee and ran away

[simonmountford]

But nothing reported on some Scotland fans that have been fighting!!!

[CandidSailor]

Who would have thought twenty-somethings on a lads holiday use illicit narcotic substances. We need a meta-analysis immediately.

[simonmountford]

Is this two-tier reporting??? Painting a bad picture, before anything bad?? SHAME ON SKY!!!

[JDMJOE]

SLY NEWS at it again. Oh my god people enjoying themselves.

[NAW]

Just a usual weekend in most major towns and cities in the UK...

[panenka]

Sky should really be investigating why the police are living it up at the Euros at the tax payers expense and refusing to attend burglaries in the UK.

[STSauto]

Its amazing how english fans and Scottish fans doing EXACTLY the same thing are viewed differently!!! The media are a joke . All the best

[rogvzlm]

police need to keep an eye out at home-pricks

[DJL]

Drama queen article . Gutter journalism and not even very good gutter journalism. Pathetic Sky news as per.
