It makes the violence yesterday so stupid. If you have 100,000 people protesting & 100 go purely to cause trouble then the press will focus on them, the movement will be discredited & confirm certain people's beliefs that some members of the black community are lawless. Insane.

Tens of thousands gathering and not social distancing during a pandemic that disproportionately affects BAME people. More will die as a result. The bitter irony.

UK people don't know who is Geroge Floyd

Why would anyone read this crappy rag with writers like this!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Any chance you can sack this bint for this appalling comment?

There's a virus killing people it does not discriminate. This year is not the year to rebel. One man's life be it criminal or innocent should not be used as a platform to cause disorder . Go home stay safe and enjoy the time with loved ones. getoffthebandwagon

One of the countries responsible for the existence of this cancer called racism. The royal family is one of the main culprits of this disease that is still in the human mind. There's no point in pretending it's not up to you UK.

The racists made brexit a reality.

No there are plenty of violent people from all colours here bitching for a fight with anyone and anything it would seem - very shameful!

The uk is not innocent. But it doesn’t need another three month in lockdown. Respect all races, respect everyone’s health. Go home and plan our future together, don’t jeopardise it by being wreckless with your own lives.

Well they lost most people’s sympathy with their violence

The UK is the least racist country in the world. The UK abolished slavery. Most African countries STILL have slavery. Guardian, you are FAKE NEWS and a disgrace.

The guardian is the nations sick bag

I blame The Celts The Romans The Viking’s The ...

What is the difference between Xenophobia and Racism?

Uncalled for MediaScum

Is this one of your journalists openly mocking an innocent police officer being seriously injured?

The Guardian certainly isn't innocent.... Rabble rousing for criminal thugs and covid spreading masses. Bunch of hypocrites

You are putting us before a court then?

Disgrace

Disappointing if still a bit unexpected to see the whatabout trolls out so quickly . Trolls please go back to the Mail on Sunday . You ll be able to soothe yourselves there in the teats of intolerance and the bigotry you clearly enjoy .

You encourage and employ this vile woman?

Please can you quantify the bold claim you make. Unless the claim can be identified and observed, then this is just a belief. And if its just a belief, why would you want to force it on me? Quite bigoted don't you think?

The violence against unarmed police is the perfect way to lose support for a very worthy cause. Shame on you.

Racism is a British legacy

Johnson is the proof.

all lives matter and remind me how many black on black deaths in London in the last few years ?

What about when PC Blakelock was murdered by Winston Silcott in 1985 was there demonstrations then?

You just need to look at our PM, with his 'jokes' about watermelon smiles and his cronies to know we live in a pretty racist country.

No nation is innocent. Some whites suffer racism is black dominated areas too. Lets speak out. AllLivesMattter

Racism.. The major problem that humanity faces 🖥

Thoughts on your writer ladyhaja finding the video of the innocent police officer being injured hilarious?
