This is clear prima facie evidence of different "tiers" or standards of policing across the UK. It means that there has been significantly less risk in Northern Ireland of facing consequences when take part in mob-based violence, targeting police or even arson vs migrant/minority homes businesses
My colleague @hannahalothman.bsky.social is in Belfast tonight. This is what she’s seen.

Big thanks to the DUP, Reform, Tories etc for stirring this up all day. Thugs are now attacking people's homes in Belfast, wrecking hostels, checking cars at roadblocks for 'immigrants', burning vehicles and generally scaring the shit out of people. Hope you're all proud of yourselves.

Russian soldiers jump from the back of a moving UAZ Bukhanka one after another as a Darts strike drone, operated by the K-2 unit, dives in for the hit.

right, here's something that makes me feel like I'm still fresh off the Eurostar, 17 years on: why are British people always eating on trains? I've just boarded a train at 3.30pm, by no means a mealtime, and over half of people here are snacking - why? why do trains make you people hungry?
This is great - a year-round, Brexit-busting passenger/freight service between Cork and northern France - starting this weekend 🛳️

These ghouls always set fire to public transport - to protect their communities
The interception of a russian Shahed drone with small arms by the crew-member of a Ukrainian #Yak-52 trainer plane. Snoopy type fighting is effective if done right
How many times have those same Belfast streets seen violent pogroms? Entirely predictible - but not preventable, apparently.
Those involved in disorder/violence in Northern Ireland in summer 2024 were much less likely to be arrested than in England
Northern Ireland in 2024
[49 arrests; > 600 people involved in disorder]
So up to 1 in 12
England in 2024
[1876 arrests of 4000-5000 people involved in disorder]
About 1 in 3

The incident is racist neo-Nazis wandering around in a pack and attacking anyone they decide looks like an immigrant.
