As I've said before, the Southport riots in the U.K. are akin to January 6 in the United States. Just as that was the one time that conservatives rioted after a whole summer of love in 2020, it was the one time that white Brits rioted, after the son of African migrants stabbed three girls under the age of 10 to death. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is determined that that won't happen again. There were fears there might be riots in England when police released bodycam footage of 18-year-old Henry Nowak being handcuffed as he bled to death from stab wounds while the police interviewed his killer, a Sikh, about a fictional "racial assault."
People didn't riot after that, but they did riot in Northern Ireland on Tuesday night after a Sudanese "asylum seeker" tried to behead a citizen in the street, gouging out one of his eyes in the process. This is Belfast, known for car bombings. Of course, there were riots.

Rioters are breaking into migrant HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation, a form of taxpayer-funded housing for asylum seekers) in Belfast and setting them ablaze.
It’s a difficult night for firefighters in Belfast with fires reported in several parts of the city. pic.twitter.com/lOlgBXzOH7
Starmer, of course, was appalled by the violence.
The scenes in Belfast last night were shocking and completely unacceptable.

There is no justification for the violence and disorder that we saw threatening our communities, nor for those who encouraged it, online or elsewhere.
It is clear that people were targeted last night…
The post continues:
… because of their background and I will not tolerate it. Those responsible will feel the full force of the law.
I’ve spoken to the Chief Constable of the Police Service of Northern Ireland to convey my thanks to them and the frontline emergency services for their bravery in keeping people safe. I’ve also spoken to the First Minister and Deputy First Minister to discuss the ongoing situation.
Appealing for calm must be the priority, and that is what I urge now. We must let the police get on with their work.
Fuck off

I recently published a post about a piece in The Economist looking at the dangerous rhetoric of anti-white prejudice in British politics. As I said in that piece, the "danger" The Economist was warning about came from more people backing Nigel Farage and his Reform UK Party, as more and more incidents like this occurred.
We need calm heads.

It’s very important that people like Rupert Lowe, Elon Musk, Nigel Farage and others don’t use this horrific Belfast incident to whip up hostility and division against minorities, migrants and Muslims living in the UK.
We all agree the incident was… https://t.co/wBr6nzS4Qa
… disgusting and horrific
Note that Zara Hussain, who says in her bio that she has a problem with Islamophobia and the far right, was mostly concerned that people like Farage, Rupert Lowe, and Elon Musk not use the incident to "whip up hostility and division" against migrants.
It wasn’t a ‘stabbing’ - he tried to butcher the man’s neck and remove his head in the street.
— Rupert Lowe MP (@RupertLowe10) June 9, 2026
Think about that.
The Belfast victim has lost his left eye and has severe damage to his right eye.
— Rupert Lowe MP (@RupertLowe10) June 10, 2026
Hacked at the neck, with his eyes gouged.
Men who inflict this brutal evil on others do not deserve to live.
Musk has been accused of whipping up division against migrants by posting about the Pakistani rape gangs and the Southport murders. An Australian TV presenter accused him of "inciting racial tension" by not censoring the video of the attempted beheading.
BREAKING NEWS: Australia's public broadcaster ABC News just accused @elonmusk of ''inciting racial tension'' in Belfast because he did not censor footage showing a Sudanese refugee attempting to behead someone.

They're angrier at Elon than at the stabber. pic.twitter.com/PGDTLChDxd
Murderous migrants beheading innocent people in their home town is what’s making people angry, not “social media”!
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 10, 2026
They are more angry that people can see what's happening, than angry about what's actually happening.
— Matt Van Swol (@mattvanswol) June 10, 2026
Tells you all you need to know.
The UK politicians will be more upset about this post than the attempted beheading.
— MAZE (@mazemoore) June 10, 2026
It’s simple, the violence the politicians import never comes close to touching them or their families. So they simply do not care.
Social media keeps the ruling class from controlling the narrative. The anger they see on social media is people waking up to their lies.

They're more mad at us sharing the footage rather than the man beheading someone, incredible!
— Robert B. Chernin (@rbchernin) June 10, 2026
They're mad that the "far-right" like Farage, Musk, and Lowe are pointing out the failed immigration policy in the country and that more people are joining the "far-right" Reform UK Party, which opposes mass, unvetted migration. The Labour Party wants native Brits to "keep calm and carry on."
