How Southport mum told daughter about stabbing
Aw God. 💔 I'm imagining having to tell my daughter her friend was murdered. The bickering doesn't change anything, this is a horrific and needless tragedy and politicians, institutions, services etc. all need to be held accountable and changes made.

Does social media for under 18's need to be illegal? Does antisocial behaviour actually need a proper crackdown?? We need to be brainstorming and coming up with ideas to fix our society. Talk does nothing. Change has to happen. It's just not good enough.

It's easy to blame the parents but we live in a society. They weren't the only ones responsible.

They are probably not using an adult photo because people still watch the news, read papers etc in prison. He would be a sitting target. And im not saying protect him, but the prisons service is underfunded. If he died it’s an investigation, maybe a closure and the family would no doubt sue for what happened, even if they are mad at what he did to those kids…… the media are at times sensible in what they share.
I think if the judge has ruled they can now name him, then the media have every right to share pics of what he looks like now! The police did everything by the book and appealed to the court to have him named using totally the correct channels. I don’t get why people are having a go at the police for not disclosing anything earlier! They have to be very careful not to jeopardise this case and make sure this b gets sent down for a very long time! I would imagine his family have been moved to a safe house now too in case of attacks on them!

This is the photo I am referring to - he looks around 10 years old.
I find the language used quite odd. Calling him a ‘boy’ when he will be 18 next week instead of saying youth. Then posting this photo which clearly isn’t recent. If he does have some sort of mental health issues then I feel sorry for him but it does seem like a targeted attack.

It annoys me how mental health issues seem to be used as some sort of excuse these days. Not saying you’re doing that Grifty. But look at Huw Edwards he used Mental Health to get an easier ride with all that carry on last year.
I know mental health isn’t a black and white but there are millions of suffers who don’t commit crimes and/or have dodgy dealings.

Reading that he was expelled for taking a knife to school and telling his classmates England needs a genocide like Rwanda to fix the problem and he was known to social services, how the hell did it get to this point

There’s plenty of people have mental health problems and don’t turn to killing innocent little girls! Who knows what his motives were or what his family like was like! I suppose it will all come out in due course!

This is amazing. I really liked the way he kind of presented the guy to the police so calmly like “there you go, stop making a fuss” and went back to his day job 🤦🏻‍♀️
Never judge a book. ..😂 very impressive I’m sure he’ll go viral.

Is it just me who finds articles like this a bit weird? Has she been paid for this story?? Why’s she making it all about her and her daughter?
THANK YOU. I was feeling a right wrong un but I saw them on the news and it was an uncomfortable watch. A bit of mourn porn tied up with grifting your child about for attention. Parenting capacity seems off to me.

Yeah, don’t worry I didn’t take offence at your post and appreciate that we can discuss things like this. I do have some people close to me who have serious mental health issues but they wouldn’t hurt a fly, but then I also know of someone in NI who was psychotic and killed his mum. (It wasn’t a clear cut case and very heavily drug influenced and was just a terrible sad situation)

I don’t think any of us know the motives yet because this was horrific and I feel for the defence team who have to do their best to represent the client to ensure a fair trial.

yeah I find this one weird. The actual child Poppy, who lost her friend 3 days ago is talking too.

“I saw the picture,” said Poppy. “And I said what is wrong with her? And you said she has died from the incident.”

“I don't think she's fully got it, that she has gone,” Charlotte said.


So she’s letting her speak to a journalist for bbc news?

It’s the posed photo as well. Weird. I think shame on bbc. Expect this type of stuff from the Mail.

I didn’t realise they had been on tv news too! Wtf?!

For gods sake @welshgirl2021 has said numerous times that she will agree to disagree, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and she wants to move on from it. What part of that do others not understand. I rarely comment on things like this but jeez get off her case. People have said they agree or disagree and that should be that. It’s boarderline bullying keep going at her.
Thank you I appreciate this

I think potentially they may have been taken advantage of by a journo to some degree here

I actually didn’t read the headline properly and thought the article was about one of the poor mothers finding out her daughter had died. I find it a pretty crappy thing to do if they really were as friendly as being made out to have her posing and being interviewed by a stranger mere days after.

BBC News has been pretty terrible on this, I watched this ⬇ live and was amazed at the ignorance, and I don't think they ever corrected it. This is the guy who's doing the main coverage of it.
