 Just today, in the UK;

At 4am a group of armed leftists used a van to ram the gates of a defence contractor and in the ensuing attack 2 police were injured with a sledgehammer.

A police chief has said that he didn't send officers to arrest a large armed mob because he'd spoken to community leaders who'd promised to 'police' themselves. That mob attacked multiple people and left one man with a lacerated liver.

2 police chiefs have started public statements using a common Islamic greeting, one of them was surrounded by 'community leaders' in scenes reminiscent of some of those beheading videos.

The government have told people that they may face prison time for sharing videos of the riots.

There have been growing calls from leftists in the media and government to have twitter banned.

In my home town the police have been enforcing a narrative of impending riots, encouraging businesses to close. 

I have since heard the same from a friend in Penzance, in Cornwall. 

This is a non exhaustive list.

I'm just exhausted writing it all out.  
 Wow. Thank you. 
 Thank you for taking the time to articulate what is going on in the UK in your own words, I don't trust the media so honest first hand accounts are a refreshing read.

Don't wear yourself out with worry, this entire thing is a psychological operation intended to create mass panic and confusion in order to pass draconian legislation that otherwise would recieve scrutiny. 

The two-tier policing is intended to inflame the native British and thus keep the fire burning.

The reason I can say this with a degree of confidence is that the same thing has played out in Ireland, and was entirely avoidable, but instead of allowing a growing section of the public to vent their frustration, they instead were demonised by the media, ignored in parliament and beaten by the police. In other words, they created a giant powder keg. Then there was a young girl stabbed outside of a school and all hell broke loose, almost exactly as it happened in the UK.

Makes you wonder no?  
 Another Brit here, I got caught up watching the videos of the riots and had to remind myself that this was plan, the covid playbook (which I wasn’t even aware about as I woke up during covid)

This time it took me about 24 hours to realise it’s a trap.

Create a problem
Create fear
No solution 
Only solution is the Govs Solution.

Similar to OP it’s all changed very quickly in the UK.

But there’s a glimmer of hope for Ireland when you see the Unionists and Loyalists uniting right?

I personally think that the “far right” Will be the boogeyman needed across Europe to help roll out the globalist Agenda. All in the name of “safety”. 
 Much my own thoughts, they need the boogeyman. 
 Thank God for Bitcoin and Nostr.

There is hope, things will get darker. The further they push, the bigger the response will be. 
 Had not heard that myself, thanks, 
 Stay safe, mate and thanks for keeping us informed.  
 Ban twitter. Nostrich the nation. Orange pill the world 👌 
 Update since last night;

There was a load of BS yesterday where old bill went terrifying people with stories of riots where none occurred, the communists mobilised in force, funded and organised as always, there was violence in Croydon when commies attacked old bill but old bill have made excuses for them and said they weren't rioting, it was just antisocial behaviour. This morning commies are claiming some sort of victory, against an imaginary enemy, and ignoring their acts of violence...oh and the director of public prosecutions said that they're going to go after people who shared footage of the riots 🤣 

And still no conversation about doing anything at all to limit illegal immigration, which is most conservatives people's biggest concern.

 So the dying old media wants to ban the new vibrant media competition? what an odd thing to do. 

10 years ago, british police were my favourite police. 
 There are serious attempts to control the flow of information. It's all very coordinated.  
 Whenever I hear people say that the goberment cannot do anything right I shout "PROPAGANDA"  
 They had all the practice with covid
