So everyone's seen this video of the "locals" in Birmingham:
https://x.com/darrengrimes_/status/1820503043793998078?t=Q0YEmjfaGLzg3BmnQTyiPQ&s=09So here's some quotes from the link above relating to that....
Local councillors turned out, seemingly in support of the community turning out in the area in response to rumours of a far-right protest that spread online last night.
Later, the correspondent revealed she and her colleagues had been told to leave the area - before a masked man with a knife tried to puncture their van's tyre with a knife.
She wrote on Sky News: 'as we attempted to report live from across the street we were approached by a group of men who told us to leave.
'Older men intervened, reassuring us that we should stay. But as the situation became more hostile, we took a decision to drive away.
'As we did, a man in a balaclava ran alongside us brandishing a knife. He ran in front of one of our vehicles and began stabbing at the tyre of our broadcast van. It wasn't damaged, so we were able to continue to drive away.'
Jess Phillips, Labour MP for the area, claimed on social media that local Muslims had been coaxed out by the rumours.
'To be clear all day rumours have been spread that a far right group were coming and it was done entirely to get Muslim people out on the street to drive this content,' she wrote on X, responding to the Sky News footage.
'These people came to this location because it has been spread that racists were coming to attack them.'
Literally defending knife crime now, the very thing that led to three young girls being stabbed to death in the first place.

Same reason Americans haven't.
The Brits and Irish are further along to open rebellion though.
