What's happening in Reading ?

Multiple stabbings in a park , after a BLM demo.

said random , so could be right wing, left wing or a complete nutter. People are being turned against each other, which is no doubt the intention.

And Reading drew 1-1 with Stoke today, another entirely unrelated event that you failed to mention.

What about Barrow and what didn't go on there.

Terrorism ?
1 arrest so far , no mention of how many attackers there were.

- Mass stabbing.
- 3 dead, at least 2 others in hospital.
- Police helicopter and 2 air ambulances in attendance.
- 1 man arrested.
- BLM protest took place earlier at that location
- police treating it as ‘random’ as opposed to anything else so far.

Who’s saying this? BBC and Sky channels not saying this yet.

The Home Secretary and Labour leader quick to make statements , so it's obviously something very serious.

I agree totally, I was going to add that. How times have changed though, instead of worrying about the families and the tragedy of it all , the colour of the murderers skin is going to be the main news

I think the important thing is what motive is behind it all.

now saying a Libyan man

 

[Nobby_66]

Sky news reporting as terrorism, believed Libyan male arrested.

[Nobby_66]

Reports of male stabbing victims in the neck and under the armpits, clear sign of training of some sort so if not terrorism, I'd say he was at least organised and this was planned.

The neck cut seems to be a favourite way of murder these days

As pledge said. Some will be hoping the colour suites their politics.

Who said it's to do with colour ?
I'd say (at a guess) , that it's to do with an ideology.
