  • Can not speak for @gonzo but coming back yesterday we ended up with one  of our seats double booked with a protester. We chatted most of the way back, I told him I  was not a supporter and he was fine

  • I just wish folk would stop producing bollocks information and spreading it. 3 kids have been murdered ffs and the first thing someone can think of is set up a fake twitter profile and post some

  • Anyone who thinks Starmer covered up for grooming gangs because he in some way thinks it’s ok, is off their fucking box. Hes a dull as shit, methodical legal cunt. Unfortunately, to get justice p

Park life is an adult only festival which you can only enter with a ticket in the middle of a big park. Not sure how it’s similar to NHC 

Oh ok, I wasn't aware what your criteria for a similar event was

so your on about carnivals and not festivals

Which are free to attend events in public places near main roads, or something

Leave it with me

 

Do they have to be in this country? 

I bet Rio Carnival is a right gun fest

Any event similar, as I said, A ticketed adult only event, in a park is hardly similar. Only one I can think of is the Bolton one. Hundreds of thousands over a weekend, family event, in a town/city setting, celebrating different cultures, food and drink stalls, music live bands etc

1.5 million on an anti war protest. Can’t remember if there were any stabbings, or rapes. It was a few years back though, I doubt there was. I could be wrong. 

Half a million manage  to get though a weekend in Bolton without being nicked or stabbing someone at the food and drink festival. 

Half a million rocked up for Carrs Pasties?

I’m impressed

Yeah I don't know what the answer is to be honest 

Do we ban park life 

Or

Do we make NHC an all ticket adult only event in a park, and then they can do what they want

Two tier festivals 

 

I'd presume Millions went through Manchester Pride other weekend?

No many arrests but hundreds of bummings.

I’ve lost track of your agenda here mate. What’s your point? 

I’m saying we shouldn’t blame the carnival for knife crime & gang culture. These a wider , deeper rooted social issues. They need to make changes clearly, but banning it won’t solve the issue.

Take 2 million people across London on any given weekend & you see similar offences, just not on the same scale I assume. Though I’ve not got the data, which is why I said it’d be interesting to see.

I went in 2018 with a mate when I lived in London. Didn’t stay long & it was in the afternoon but didn’t see any trouble. There were also a shit load of arrests & trouble that year, but with the sheer numbers of people you don’t always see it & a lot take place after the carnival. That doesn’t mean innocent people don’t get caught up in it. There were lots of positive things going on & banning them seems odd. It just needs to be moved & adapted, so it’s not so dense maybe. Punishing the organisers & majority peaceful attending isn’t the way forward.

My agenda? I don’t have really have one. All I said was that some people want it banned or cancelled and I can see their point. 
 

No matter which way you look at it the carnival attracts trouble, and it’s not the kind of trouble that you see at other events. Year in year out multiple stabbings, multiple rapes, sexual assaults, police and emergency workers getting assaulted, business's have to close for the weekend, residents board their houses up and move away. It’s a magnet for trouble. For you to say “yes there’s loads of people there so it’s not that bad” and “I didn’t see any trouble” is just a bit ignorant.

I'm not sure Bolton Food & Drink Festival can be used as a comparison tbh, where a large percentage are there to simply look at chutneys and cheeses,

Ignorant😂

 did you read my post where I said there was loads of trouble the year I went?

 The carnival isn’t the problem. It doesn’t need cancelling. 

It’s a knife crime & gang culture epidemic

Yep ignorant. 
 

So this knife crime and gang culture. Why didn’t we read about it after pride? Bolton food and beer? Tommy Robinson March? Etc etc 

This “epidemic” seems to get worse every Aug bank holiday around the Notting Hill area. I wonder why? 

Bet there was lots of stabbing going on at pride

It’s the “come fck things up stall” at Notting Hill carnival.

 They have it every year & ask London’s local gangsters to come. 

 There are pick pocket workshops, sexual harassment role play & zombie knife battles. I honestly think if the carnival stops encouraging violence then we’ll see a reduction in crime.

Bolton food & drinks festival doesn’t do these, they just teach people how to make Kimchi. Which is why the crime rate is non existent.

Got through the fellas documentary a while back. He’s right, it wasn’t a racist attack & the media reporting was poor, & dangerous. The boy who committed the attack suffered significant mental health issues after he was vilified. The sad thing is that both these boys are children & it was an incident that the school should have been left to deal with. Everyone behaved as bad as each other for the sake of a headline story. I can hardly look back at my 15 year old self & say I was an angel. Why the media, local mosques & TR were allowed to get involved is beyond me.

Tommy decides the way to go about it is to go after the other child. Releasing confidential school reports & other private information about him. Then he had the audacity to cry victim when he’s sued for damages. What did the daft cunt expect ? Deserves everything he got.

He also conveniently forgets to mention (whilst promising to tell us all ‘The Truth’) that the attackers mother is a convicted racist who spent time in prison for assaulting & racially abusing the local chip shop owner.
