It does sound like the facts were withheld from the British public for 4 months. It took less than 2 days for them to assure us he was not an asylum seeker rather a down home Welsh boy who'd just moved to Southport. So why sit on this for 4 months. The reason details were revealed about him being born in Wales very soon after was to try and calm the rioters from smashing up our towns and cities. Quite reasonable to try to stop more people being harmed and livelihoods destroyed. The police don’t need to explain anything. They have done a great job which has led to further serious charges being brought against this scum. He will serve longer behind bars, perhaps never getting out, partly because of the investigation which has led to these charges.

The problem is people being radicalised online. Not immigration. The guy was born in Wales! He was not a jihadi who moved here! Another British born terrorist. Oggy, the point is mass immigration is increasing the chances of this happening more frequently. If the first generation keep their noses clean then the second generation might not. Reducing it reduces the risk That’s counterintuitive. The relationship between mass immigration and radicalisation is complicated but there is little evidence to suggest that more migration unconditionally leads to more terrorist activity, especially in Western countries. It’s factors such as overcrowding, poverty, and local crime which contribute to feelings of alienation, which then can increase the risk of radicalisation. The chances of refugees becoming radicalised is very low. The chances of refugees being blamed and victimised for overcrowding, poverty, and local crime by white right wing natives is extremely high.

At what point do you think they should have released this information to the public? Bear in mind, that at the time, rioters were attempting to burn down hotels housing asylum seekers, their ire predicated on the (wrong) belief that the perp was an illegal immigrant. Are you suggesting that the police should have immediately tossed this piece of highly inflammable information onto a raging bonfire, that at the time, was already out of control? To achieve what, exactly?

Not once has anyone who is incensed by this new charge being made public said who has “lied”, or “hoodwinked” or “gaslit” them. Apparently they are mad because he isn’t a Christian. Of course he wasn’t a Christian. Do real Christians murder children!?

I never thought this guy categorically could not be a terrorist. I never thought this guy was definitely Christian.

"We have worked extensively with partners to establish that there was a low to very low risk to the public – and I want to make that reassurance clear today. I can also tell you that there was no ricin present at Hart Street.“When the ricin was discovered, all necessary steps were taken so we could be sure that no one was at risk. This was a multi-agency response. Expert advice, and guidance was received and adhered to throughout the investigation. “In the following days Merseyside Police worked closely with partners including: Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS); North West Ambulance Service (NWAS); Sefton Council; Lancashire Police; West Lancashire Borough Council; Counter Terrorism Policing North West (CTPNW); Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP); UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA); Crown Prosecution Service (CPS); NHS England; National CBRN Centre; Defence, Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), and the Ministry of Defence to identify if there was any risk to victims, local communities, or the specialist professionals in attendance at Hart Street and Old School Close. “At this point it is particularly appropriate to recognise the support we have received from the emergency services, the local authority, and Counter Terrorism Policing. That support has included forensics experts and digital investigators. This was in place from the initial stages of the investigation and remains ongoing. “I want to reassure our communities that we continue to work in partnership with all our partners and are absolutely committed to keeping our communities safe. “At this time, Counter Terrorism Policing has not declared the attack on Monday 29 July a terrorist incident. I recognise that the new charges, may lead to speculation. The matter for which Axel Rudakubana has been charged with under the Terrorism Act does not require motive to be established. For a matter to be declared a terrorist incident, motivation would need to be established."Presumably, if those on the right want to peddle the narrative that the police were deliberately keeping things from them, then they also need to accept that they are in actual fact asking the Police to prejudice any trial and allow the very people they claim to be against to perpetrate their crimes safe in the knowledge that the people who claim to be against them, are in actual fact wanting them to get off with it.

The police should never be above the law but they do deserve a fair crack of the whip which in my opinion they don’t get unless it’s to prove a political point which in some cases they go to far the other way. There’s some on here who always want to hammer the police yet if it’s an argument around the policing around imigrants or Palestinian protests they’re the best thing since sliced bread.

The question I’m asking is, “how have we found ourselves in a situation where state sponsored gaslighting and political persecution are logical short-term solutions to prevent civil war?”. I see where you're coming from to be honest. Deep divisions within societies can lead to extreme measures by governments to maintain control and prevent dissent from escalating into violence. When you add that to the fact that democratic institutions and processes are weakening, governments then resort to repressive tactics to suppress opposition and maintain power. Ultimately, it's the fear of instability and perceived weakness: governments justify repressive measures such as gaslighting and persecution as necessary to prevent chaos and maintain order, especially in times of crisis or perceived threats. Historic cases of state repression and political violence create a cycle where such measures are seen as effective tools for maintaining control. That all mixes together to create an environment where repressive tactics are rationalised as necessary for short-term stability, even at the cost of long-term democratic principles and human rights. Naturally, it doesn't excuse those from either political extreme (far right and far left) from perpetrating nonsense and propaganda as this just adds to it. Logic comes from a sense of love and perspective. We all metaphorically wrestle with each other on here (some more than others - sorry Paul Spencer - it's meant in jest) but none of us (I think) try to gaslight or inadvertently promote violence against any member of the group. The clearest way of demonstrating what you're talking about would be if gaslighting and violence were allowed on here. Heaven forbid.

The police officer was exonerated. He shouldn’t have been named. The problem is you have the people on here upset that the police have somehow misled them. They are the same ones that wanted that officer in the met to not be prosecuted. Do they wantthe police to be able to do their job or not? The charges brought against this terrorist scum may not have been possible with regular police updates. The police have done a brilliant job on this case (yet again) so why are they under fire from the same people who sympathised with the rioters who also wasted loads of police resources by smashing up local communities because they wrongly thought an immigrant had murdered those poor children. The hypocrisy is staggering.

This is not to condone or justify any riots, but the concerns remain unaddressed, regardless. The PM dealt with the riots well and quelled them reasonably quickly by pouring resources into preventing them. What has happened is a young man murdered 3 children. Right wing influencers were wrong when they said he was an immigrant. Idiots then started rioting against their local communities and businesses. It was correctly announced that he was born in Wales to Rwandan parents. The riots calmed down after a few days. Now people are annoyed they weren’t told sooner he was involved in terrorist activities, claiming they were misled. The evidence shows they weren’t misled. The murderer was born in Wales. He isn’t an immigrant, and this story only relates to immigrants because right wing thugs blame all their problems and failures on foreigners as an easy target to distract from their failures in life.
