George Floyd: Labour and SNP call on UK government to suspend export of riot control equipment to US during unrest

The protests were sparked by the death of Mr Floyd, a black man, last week in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Protests have spread across the US since, with dozens of cities seeing demonstrators take to the streets. An unnamed company has been given one to sell a range of crowd control items to US police and military buyers, including CS hand grenades, anti-riot guns and projectiles, and tear gas capsules."If there is a risk that any of these riot control projectiles and equipment are being used in the United States against peaceful, unarmed civilians, then the government must act immediately to stop their export," Ms Thornberry said.

Publish a list of all export licences so all the brain dead idiots can go round and burn their premises down.... what a really good idea!! 🤡🤡

Because that helps how exactly, labour really are a joke

Labour supporting mob rule says it all about that party.

The Labour Party trying to remain relevant. 🤣🤣

Labour demanding anarchy and social breakdown in our strongest ally. Hardly surprising

Communists support communist riots... people know now they're all in it together UKLabour are in No position to demand anything 🤫 80 seat majority No election for close to 5yrs DEAL WITH IT 😎

So I have come to the conclusion that sky news is posting all this racebading nonsense because they are worried incase ther are uk riots and there buildings get looted or torched

They are classed as TERRORISTS, they've destroyed all WW2 memorials. Trump is doing what has to be done. of course labour communists wouldn't want to support this. Clowns. Get ready!

The equipment didn’t hurt anybody. If we stop exporting it, the only people hurt are the people who make it that end up losing they’re jobs.

Looks like they will need more to protect their brave police and public from the rioters and antifa🤔

Thankfully Labour are not in power, I’m sure the peaceful people getting robbed and murdered on the streets in the US would have like a few minutes with these Lab useful idiots to remind them they are low life thugs not peaceful protesters

Gonna need it here

🤣
