Quote: Stephen Goodlad @ 26th August 2024, 8:56 AMI'm glad the Notting Hill carnival was 'mostly peaceful.
Only 3 stabbings and 90 arrests and 15 police injured.
Only 18 arrested with knives and 10 emergency workers assaulted.
No need to fast-track these mostly peaceful people to jail.
EDIT - 8 stabbings, 334 arrests, 50 police injured, 40 emergency workers assaulted, dozens of knives and three guns recovered. But look for these figures now on line and they're suddenly hard to find, and have completely vanished from the BBC News website. They must have 'two tier Keir' fear.
RE-EDIT - I found the item on the Beeb website but it's been hidden from the front page.
