    Interesting that followers of Alan’s snack bar are part of another minority. Religious or political minorities tend to do that.
    How thoughtless but typical of your limited intellect to join in by publishing it. Silly dull boy.

    The obscure Russian-linked ‘news’ outlet fuelling violence on Britain’s streets

    Before the fire and fury in Southport, there was a name – Ali Al-Shakati.


    Al-Shakati has never existed, we now know, but that didn’t stop an obscure, Russian-linked fake news outlet from naming him as a 17-year-old supposedly Muslim asylum seeker responsible for the murder of three schoolgirls in the town on Monday.


    Channel3 Now, a website that masquerades as a legitimate American news outlet but acts as an “aggregator” for real news stories as well as fake viral claims, published the claim on the back of speculation which appeared to have started on X, formerly known as Twitter.


    What had begun as a trickle then became a flood, sending the conspiracy theory pouring out through social media anew, where the name was boosted by thousands of other Russia-linked accounts before being repeated by authentic Russian state media, which cited Channel3 Now in its reporting.


    The claim was meanwhile picked up by far-Right figures such as Tommy Robinson – founder of the anti-immigrant English Defence League, which played a major role in instigating the riots in Southport and elsewhere this week – and notorious influencer Andrew Tate, whose posts about Al-Shakati garnered millions of views and hundreds of thousands of likes.

    By Tuesday, the conspiracy had gone mainstream, propelled by the likes of entrepreneur Duncan Bannatyne who claimed in a post online that “maybe [Tommy Robinson] was right all along” about the risks posed by Muslim immigrants, before later deleting the remarks. And as news of the attacker’s supposed identity spread, anger grew, sparking the riots that rocked the Merseyside town that evening before spreading out across the country.


    Police were later forced to confirm that the suspect’s supposed name was false. On Thursday, the real suspect was named in court as Axel Rudakubana, who was born in Cardiff to Rwandan parents in 2006.

    Exactly how this little known website found itself at the centre of the chain of events is “very, very messy and uncertain”, says Stephen Hutchings, a Professor of Russian Studies at the University of Manchester and the principle investigator at (Mis)Translating Deceit, an anti-disinformation project.


    There are many like it, who post hundreds of stories a day with a pro-Russian or anti-western slant intended to sow confusion and destabilise society in Britain and elsewhere, Hutchings explains, and why this one in particular gained such traction following Monday’s attack in Merseyside may never be fully understood.


    But what is known, he says, is that Channel3 Now belongs to a complex web of modern day information warfare that stretches from the grief-stricken streets of Southport all the way back to the Russian city of Izhevsk, some 800 miles east of Moscow – and an obscure YouTube channel seemingly set up by amateur car rally enthusiasts more than a decade ago.


    The channel’s first videos, aired in 2012, were posted with Russian titles and generic thumbnails, and showed drag racers gleefully thrashing their cars about in a snowy Izhevsk.


    Like so many accounts set up in the early 2010s, when YouTube took off as a major online streaming platform, the channel went dead for several years after its owners presumably grew bored with it. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, it became active again and was renamed Funny Hours, Hutchings says. Rather than its original car-fan content, however, it was posting English-language videos about Pakistan upon its reboot.


    Disinformation expert Dr Marc Owen Jones, a professor at Northwestern University’s campus in Doha, said this week that the sudden change in content published by the account suggested it had been “hijacked and repurposed” – as opposed to it being formally part of a Russian disinformation operation from the off.


    Hutchings agrees, and believes that the takeover was carried out by Russian-linked actors suspected of being behind Channel3 Now as a way to shield their identities. In 2016, three years before the YouTube account’s possible “hijacking” appeared to take place, a Facebook page used to share its content was set up with the same name: Funny Hours.


    The videos uploaded were bizarre. They included one focused on a tiger being beaten to death, and a match report on Manchester City’s women’s team, according to a report by MailOnline.


    But a couple of years ago, things shifted. The organisation appeared to have been rebranded as Channel3 Now and the videos it shared began to resemble those of a professional news channel. Last year, channel3now.com was registered as a web domain.


    Content shared on the site in the run-up to the stabbings in Southport included news pieces that appeared to have been ripped straight from British and American newswires, but also stranger stories too: a very brief obituary for American singer Shifty Shellshock, who died last month, and a piece accusing NFL player Xavien Howard of “having four women pregnant at the same time”.

    Far right rioters assaulting a lone black man in Manchester:

    https://x.com/bmay/status/1819765667073056893

    Links below in the thread to more violence in other cities and people openly giving the nazi salute.

    Years of incitement by the likes of Braverman, Tice, Farage, Anderson etc and the far right in this country are out of control.

    It's a disgrace.

    I agree it is a disgrace. Such populism will always be given the headlines. It is stoked by feeble clickbait on shallow media.

    Sadly, it does point to a greater generational malaise, that we can only hope will disappear, sooner rather than later. Accurate reporting of extreme views does not pay tabloid wages, and it perpetuates the moronic view.

    Suburban dads up before the beak for last week's peaceful protest.

    The 'cowardly' thug who stamped on man's head in Piccadilly Gardens

    Anthony Livesey, 31, of Moorfield Avenue, Denton, pleaded guilty to violent disorder following an incident in Piccadilly Gardens on August 3.
    Prosecutor Hannah Nicholls told the court that at around 1pm on Saturday there was ‘large-scale disorder’ in the city centre which led to ‘far right protesters’ engaging in an altercation with a black male.

    “This was filmed by a member of the far right group and uploaded onto X, formerly Twitter,” she said.

    “In relation to this defendant, he was seen to antagonise mounted police officers with two beer bottles in his hand on Market Street whilst swearing and chanting at the police and opposing protestors.”

    Livesey was then seen to follow the group as they climbed over some barriers before they attacked the black male. He was seen to ‘swing’ a punch’ towards the man whilst others engaged in the attack.

    At one stage the man was dragged away by members of the group before falling to the ground.

    “The defendant was then seen to stamp on top of the male’s head. The police then became involved,” the prosecutor added.

    The court heard he had previous convictions for domestic violence including battery and controlling behaviour. No application for bail was made on his behalf by his solicitor.

    Remanding him into custody, District Judge Lucy Hogarth said: “I have worked in criminal justice for nearly 30 years and I am not often lost for words but this offence that was committed by you and your friends is one of the most cowardly and disgraceful cases I have ever experienced. I am absolutely stunned and shocked by you and your friends’ behaviour.”

    He will next appear at Manchester Crown Court on August 16.

    Livesey smiled to a friend in the public gallery during the hearing.

    Doubtless you will be nominating the gentleman for the Telegraph’s award for Engerlish Yeoman of the Year.

    SA is the best poster on Teakdoor.

    Fact.

    I come from a city, Manchester, where over 200 languages are spoken.

    Every 2nd or 3rd person I walk past on the street is "not like me."

    Because that's Britain.

    We're a nation of immigrants.

    And we get on very well.

    And SA gets it.

    All the fucking time.

    Right wing nazis don't.

    And that's when the gammons and Reform voters turn up trying to ruin our cities, the thick kunts.

    And this thread has been an eye opener as to those who choose to bat on the side of ignorance and hatred.

    Your prehistoric views aren't welcome here or on the streets of our cities.

    Never have been and never will be.

    You never fail to disappoint, do you snubby?

    All week we've seen looting, assaults, attacks on mosques etc, but you choose to highlight a response to all this.

    Pretty much like you're hopelessly out of touch views on Israel/Palestine really.

    And what, exactly, is wrong with this where he urges the others to stay peaceful and not react to the provocation from the far right?

    ^ First time in my life I've ever got the your/you're wrong that is.

    In my defence, I did rewrite the sentence and simply forgot to change it.

    Will leave it there for posterity though instead of going in and editing it.

    This is all starting to look like a psyop to me. Pissed off suburban dad's don't light hotels on fire.

    Plus the stabbing suspect was featured in a BBC film or something. Seems to be an odd connection. The suspect was featured in a children in need ad. You can't make it up

    (BBC link)

    The legit protest a few days ago was lower middle class suburban dads. They aren't the tip of the spear of the current violence. Which is what i was fucking saying.

    Too late to try backpedaling now. You enjoyed it because you are a vicious little gossip queen who enjoys this kind of thing, until you are called out on it.

    Not to worry. Opinions like yours should be brought to the surface and published. It shows that such mindless violence can be correctly attributed to the extremist scum who make you so happy.

    Radical shit stirrers like Farage and other right wing extremists correctly attributed with promoting such hatred.
