Carnival

Do you mean stabbings or shootings?

Maybe Sir Nobby of the Festering Five can take his abacus down there and report back on Tuesday

With the huge increase in 2026 of geo political destabilising incidents across Europe, such as 70,000 immigrants in one day, drones at airports, infrastucture hacking etc.
The chances of an event like this being used as a platform by one of these geo political actors, leading to a major news story are much increased.


250-500 arrests and a handful of stabbings would be average.

Here's hoping it just another average year.

my spread would be .. 250 - 300 stabs... are you a buyer or seller

seller £100 per point at 250 stabs, free £muneys

Lets hope your right cos 1 of my grandaughters is going with her Lewisham Posse

You've brought that one up wrong, stringy, ffs!

Only 1 going is a miracle

I wonder if Sir Nobby was one of them

Are the whiteys going to get blamed for their behaviour this weekend.

Millions spent on policing and security.

Stabbings, looting, assaults and gang warfare.

But not the fault of the usual suspects, it’s everyone else’s fault.

Wacist!!!!!!!

Seems safer than Middlesbrough?

Gang warfare in Boro , not a celebration of Culture

Don't think the woman and her 7yo niece were in a gang ~TON


Those clips of the boro youf driving stolen cars across that field and setting fire to them?

We never done that at me nan's funeral. is it a northern youf cultural thing?

I dont know nowt about it , Only what the news are reporting , Certainly nothing to do with celebrating culture

Police in Helicopter

It's only just gone 21:00 hours but a short time ago the Evening Standard reported that there's already been a staggering 169 arrests on "Family Day" at the Crime Carnival.

Will anyone put this pitiful event out of its misery?

Which "Family" did they have in mind exactly?  The Manson Family?

You not down there dancing to calypso with Nobby then String ?

Still sulking at The Lions gettin  Hammered .. Dix

First day arrests now upgraded to 243 arrests by the MET.

Looks like you are in for a moody nine months then String

Just dug out my Aswad Live and Direct vinyl LP -  recorded at Notting Hill Carnival no less (in 1983) .

No Warrior Charge on there but still a great album.

243 arrests now but apparently it is overwhelmingly positive , i doubt it is for all the people attacked and assaulted , and these are just the incidents that are actually reported and they are caught and arrested , the real figure will be much higher .

Let's hope granddaughter isn't letting five in

Looks like it's been a record breaking year.

Must be one of Escapees "geo political actors" at fault.

The metropolitan police said, the atmosphere was “overwhelmingly positive and celebratory” and said “it passed largely without incident”

One dead and 560 arrests, with that number nicked expected to be much larger.

Twice deleted already without explanation. Let's have another go at publishing last night's report from the Evening Standard.


I'm sure most sane people would like to express their condolences for the victims of crime at this appalling "Festival"

The carnival is just a display of the liberal system.

That’s why they don’t care about the massive hypocrisy regarding all the arrests, stabbings, sexual assault and violence.

Khan says how fabulous it is but doesn’t let you reply to him on social media.

What is the percentage of white English now in London?

It was 33 per cent in 2021 so now 25 per cent or even less.

You either have to embrace it or be despised for hating it.

636 weighed in, weighed in.

Smashes all previous records at this annual celebration of crime.

You've truly never had it so Progressive, Kind or Tolerant.

Roll on next year.

It just shows how captured the police in the UK are that such a large yearly increase in arrests is still something positive and there are no issues to highlight.

Why would anyone want to go there ? , Blaring noise non stop , crowds pushing and shoving and its a result if you come out without being robbed or assaulted .

All you waycists, just stop it will ya.

I Went to a greasy spoon for a fry up on Tuesday and read the daily star

According to them there were 2 stabbings.


Giving me a profit of £24,800 on this bet.

Plenty of incidents occurring that were doubtless not recorded.

I'm not sure anything the Star prints can be regarded as official or "weighed in"
