There were just a series of mass race riots by right-wingers across the UK, in which they went around smashing up shops owned by immigrants and beating up people who don't look white. This isn't about illegal immigration. It's about racism.
conveniently emitting the fact that this is a reaction to immigrants going around randomly attacking birtish people. If you aren't already consider workong for MSM.
No, it's not based on that.
It was based on a false rumor that spread on social media that the perpetrator of a recent triple murder was a Muslim asylum seeker. It turns out that the perpetrator is a British citizen who was born in Britain and is Christian.
What this reminds me of are pogroms in Eastern Europe, which were often sparked by false rumors about Jews.
That doesn't make it any less racist!
But please give some more details on that. The only case I've heard about was a single attacker who was incorrectly called an immigrant.
It adds context which people who manipulate the overtone window for political games and name calling like to exclude.
The person was a immigrants child. Considering there obvious (violent) refusal to integrate they are too an immigrant.

To bring up more things in the broader context, were there not several "grooming gangs" that were active in Britain recently and the police were reluctant to investigate/prosecute them as it might appear racist?
