The Notting Hill Carnival

[Hammer and Pickle]

“Like Cape Canaveral only with a lot more brothers” Sasha Cohen Always a great day out if you know how to handle yourself. Best act this time?

[Hammer and Pickle]

"While other’s would suggest that turning acts of violence of this kind into big media stories carries risks of its own. Anyway, you can indulge in ostentatious neurotic reactivity based on what you seek out on the internet yourself. The vast majority, I think you might find, don’t need to sustain an attitude of hatred towards the those engaged in making it possible for us all to enjoy life. They don’t need sensationalised stories of violent acts to prove any political point. And they don’t need reactionaries looking for trouble like you."

And yet the 'patriots rally' held in London a few weeks ago was said to have an air of 'menace in the air' despite being among the most peaceful gatherings in years. Couldn't see the sky for Union and English flags yet this is seen as a reason for concern.

[Manuel]

"Horrific stuff, no morals at all with these scum cunts now. Glad we had our day when we did and a punch up outside Tots was seen as a bit scary :-)"

[Lee Trundle]

"""I suspect this garnishes no more than a mere shrug of the shoulders in the UK today?"" It's surprising now what people are used to here, Manuel. There was a guy pushing a child in a pram who was randomly attacked by a gang over the weekend. Had his throat sliced wide open by a blade on a main street through Birmingham and it was filmed and plastered all over social media (don't watch it if you don't like blood). It barely made the news here. The BBC thought it was worthy of a few lines in their local news section. That's it. Some might suggest it's 2 tier reporting based on ethnicity. If you've seen the footage, it's horrific."

[Manuel]

"Three stabbed, two of which are life threatening including a mother who was with her young child at the time on family day. I suspect this garnishes no more than a mere shrug of the shoulders in the UK today? Isn't it time they cancelled this shit?"

"Honestly you must be the dumbest poster on here. You say stick to the facts then make idiotic broad assumptions about people. The facts are you went to Cambodia, abused and underage girl and the bragged about it on here. Hence why you constantly get called a nonce."

[joyo]

goose let's stick to facts rather than made up bollocks Here's a fact..ain't all Eyeties cowards and wife beaters?

[goose]

Joyo you’ve got some front talking about harassing women after what you did to that girl in Cambodia. Pickle - the fact you’ve never heard of Norman Jay proves that you’ve clearly never been.

[joyo]

"Plod seems a bit more hands on this year,but they still do ingore the harassment of females which is fucking sickening And the amount of fatties wearing next to nothing is also sickening"

[GoalLazio]

"This event just shows how multiculturalism has worked…old bill hopeless too and letting them do what they want. Country, dogs and do gooding cunts."

[Hammer and Pickle]

Cheers gents - this Norman Jay fellow seems like he knows his stuff

[claypole]

I went a few times 20 odd years ago. The best year I spent all day at a budwiser bus listening to Norman Jay.

[Dwight Van Mann]

there's live streams on youtube if anyone wants to see how fucking shit it is now

[Eastside surge]

"Had a few enjoyable days out at Norman jays good times sound system at carnival , seems to have gone down hill over recent years though, full of bad boys trying to prove how bad they actually are!"

[Gary Strodders shank]

I have a mate who lives on the carnival route Most of the residents in his block now move out for the duration or else don't venture out. In previous years he has been bottled and threatened with knives when remonstrating with revellers who had gained access to the gated complex and proceeded to piss shit and take drugs in the communal area and this despite the housing association employing security guards for the duration to prevent such incursions. In the run up this year he tells me there had been several shootings and stabbings in the area between local gangs which didnt bode well and he felt it was likely to kick off big time.

[nerd]

"Good day out north of West way supern sound systems not mental busy more fun .The southern half is an utter cesspit and complete opposite . If you know you know , goodtimes ."

"Have the BBC actually verified (VERIFIED) that this is taking place today, in Notting HIll?"

[goose]

"Long necked tramp who’s never been to West Ham and doesn’t live in this country, starts thread on a West Ham website about another thing he’s clearly never been to."

[Mike Oxsaw]

I reckon the feds applying the rule of law to try and stop the stab-stab-stabby boys stabbin' will be the highlight.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

3 stabbings and 90 arrests on ‘family day’ If that happened at football they’d be talking about empty stadiums for a while.
