Protester arrested in London demonstrations defends the riots after hundreds detained | LBC

The Prime Minister has announced a new 'national violent disorder unit' in a crackdown on rioters after the Southport stabbings.

Keir Starmer called the Southport attack that left three girls dead "so inexplicably vile that fear is an understandable reaction".

But he condemned rioters who have since taken to the streets across the country. Caller Jamie was at a protest in London on Wednesday.

Wants aggressive policing but also angry at aggressive policing when it affects him. Got it. Hypocrisy at its finest

[jrsnowy]

“What are you protesting?”
“Everything and anything.”

There are many worthwhile causes for protest, but this lack of identifying with a specific cause reveals the callers true motive; to go out and get angry at anyone who gets in his way.

So for 14 years he did not feel the need to object to anything going on.

[MacTheRipper]

His camera wouldn't have been on if he said that, ffs!!

[grahamhighmore]

A protest is when you notify the police beforehand to ensure that no protest or counter-protest can cause casualties

[theukeconomist]

So, will these protestors also protest when a British Christian commits violent crime?

[JanSaevebek]

"I'm protesting about everything" This guy hasn't got a clue what he's protesting about.

[garyh]

Why wasn't he protesting at Tory Austerity which devastated his local services

[danmayberry]

Lucy Letby .. people had not yet "had enough."

[yvepiub]

Lucy letby killed loads but because she's got the complexion for protection, people actually felt sorry for her.go figure

[byrnemeister]

The irony. Man protests and wants the police to crackdown. Police proceed to crackdown and he gets arrested. Then moans about it in the radio.

[ivmcvs]

We all know why these people didn't react the same way regarding Lucy Letby...

[suf-star]

Im sorry the southport incident has been absolutely awful, but the protests are not calling for drop the knives, they're calling for immigrants, or people who have immigrant heritage, to leave

[joachimAl]

Lucy letby is proof that some people were praying that the perpetrator was a Muslim...
❤️🇬🇧

[ADHDVLOGS]

Where have these people been the last 14 years, its almost as if theres someone new in parliament who is inciting them.

[Hbw]

This is so frustrating to listen to. They might as well be saying ‘I want the government to wave a magic wand and make knife crime go away’. Absolutely ridiculous

[alundavies]

If you can’t say what you are protesting about it is for one of two reasons. 1) you just want to protest and hopefully have a dust up. 2) you know that if you are honest about what you are actually angry about, then people will judge you. What is the point of protesting when you don’t know what you are protesting for. “Down with this sort of thing”.

[Repcep]

Love how this kid is o ly interested in getting him to say out of control immigration is the biggest problem and cause of every social problem we have. Healthcare, housing, jobs, crime.

[uzy]

Ohhhh... so you don't like being profiled then? You don't mind when the shoe is on the other foot

[nowsheenanwar]

So when lucy letby killed children, he didnt have enough

But when it was this guy, he had enough, give me a break
