Knife and Gun crime is rife, Anarchy on the streets of London and now the rise of a new IRA, what is our UK coming to?

[THECORBYLOON]

I doubt it's the end of law and order in the UK.

It can only be hoped that those responsible for the death in Londonderry will be identified by Republican supporters and reported to the police.

Look back in history you will find there's lots of improvement, eat some chocolate, and a buttered teacake with your feet up, it will all come out in the wash.

The “New” IRA aren’t all that new. They’ve been around for years. Nasty incident though.

Then France must be looking good for you, AOG....

There are those who say the UK's days are numbered (in its present form), but that has nothing to do with violence in Northern Ireland or elsewhere in the UK. Let's wait and see.

What happened in Derry is hideous, knife crime is rife and London is in a mess. AOG is right, what is happening to us?

I have plenty of chocolate in, a mug of coffee and am putting my feet up for 10 minutes on this beautiful day, but it hasnt gone away. well aware that parts of UK are really struggling right now.

[ummmm]

The New IRA has been around for donkey's years, as ich says.

I'd hate to see a new wave of killings in NI.

Also, England, before I get slated for that statement^^

[ummmm]

It's not just happening in London though, it's London which is being reported.

Not that new...

// The New IRA is believed to have been formed between 2011 and 2012 following the merger of a number of smaller groups, including the Real IRA - the group behind the 1998 Omagh bomb //

whilst ulster society is still most definitely polarised, it's unlikely that public opinion would permit return to the level of paramilitary activity prevalent before the good Friday agreement. it's being reported that the shooting was probably not targeted, and the amount of condemnation by all sides similarly being reported is a hopeful sign that this won't be the start of anything more protracted.

Life is what you make, if you worried about everything that's happening in the world you would end up a mental wreck. There's no perfect world, and never will be, but as an individual sometimes you can put right, what as been done wrong.

[Old_Geezer]

London anarchy is down to the failure of police to move in on disruptors.
IRA terrorist activity is a hopefully temporary failure of appeasing tertorists, some of whom can't seem to act as decent human beings for long even when a compromisewas agreed.
Knife and gun crime is down again to law & order problems and I suspect importing violent culture.
One has to hope authorities will get a grip on all before too long. There's always something to be tackled.

'Our UK is exactly the same as it's ever been, lots right with it and lots wrong with it. Elements of society have always committed crime (and always will), there has always been civil unrest (ask Wat Tyler) and there always will be. The way those things express themselves society wide changes but not basic human nature which propells it. Have an Easter Egg and give your overthinking a rest.

As with most headlines ending with a question mark, the answer is no.

[steg]

How they are going to fit the brexit civil war in amongst all that is going on, I dinae ken

[Rockrose]

As others have said not that new also current thinking is this was a young teen who pulled the trit

[Rockrose]

Sorry trigger

[grumpy01]

Just heard on the news that Police,acting on intelligence,raided houses on the Cregan estate looking for firearms so they could prevent attacks on them over Easter.

[anotheoldgit]

Thanks for providing the proof that it really is called 'THE NEW IRA' Baldric.

But don't let the facts get in the way for the likes of ichkeria and
ummmm having a dig.

[pixie374]

Let's hope they find who it was. I don't think it suggests law and order is ending, no.
