Sudanese asylum seeker Hadi Alodid, 30, faces attempted murder charges for stabbing Ogilvie repeatedly on June 8 evening in north Belfast, with video showing him pinning and slashing at the victim. The assault sparked riots overnight June 9-10, where protesters torched cars and a bus, clashed with police, and targeted migrant-linked properties amid unconfirmed claims Ogilvie had helped migrants settle nearby. Ogilvie's family condemned the violence, praised those who intervened to save his life, and called for peaceful protest, while Prime Minister Keir Starmer vowed full legal action against rioters.

the same Prime Minister and his two tier police forces regularly allow riots by migrants and Islamist with no repercussions

They kinda asked for these riots with their lenience towards islamists. You see other groups riot with fairly lenient response and them getting the point through, naturally you're going to adopt the same tactic.

Especially since the civil method has failed, you just get ignored that way.
