I can remember PC Keith Blakelock and no one rightly called for this kind of thing.

20 rioters inflicted 43 stab wounds and attempted to decapitate Blakelock, who was left with a knife embedded in his neck.

How is May still a Tory leader? I know it's about Brexit but she is so awful.

The only reason this is happening is because he was murdered by white youths. It was a tragedy and the Lawrence family have acted with dignity ever since that day.
But so many black kids have been murdered since. Are they not to be remembered and are they only a statistic for the press? Just because they were killed by other black youths does not diminish the loss to their families.
Just remembering one tragedy as a national day of remembrance is totally wrong. It is trying to make white folk feel guilty by the left by what happened that night. It will be used as a political football. We should recognise the dignity being shown by his family.

Yet many posters are slagging off the Prime Minister for it. P’raps they mean for caving in to lefties.

Same old story just like in the US when a black man gets shot by police and everybody goes nuts. How many white people get shot by police every day and is it considered newsworthy? Of course not. I’ve always had my doubts about the whole Stephen Lawrence thing anyway. A bunch of white guys walking down the road evidently decide to kill a black guy for no reason and without provocation knowing they will go to prison for the rest of their lives. Seems extremely unlikely to me.

I thought this was fake news. This country and it's politicians have gone stark raving bonkers.

I thought I'd seen it all but this is the end of reason.

The full and unedited version of events on that night haven't ever been published.
It has been a one way story.
It fits the mantra of institutional rascism.
I can say no more as don't want a card.
suffice to say I spoke at the time to people who lived in Eltham.
The truth hurts is a saying that fits !!!!!!!

Sadly this is the truth. We only have 1 person's version of the events because his friend is dead and the suspects deny any involvement. I don't think we will ever know the truth whatever that is.

I would agree, if there is to be a Stephen Lawrence Day then a Keith Blakelock Day is just as justifiable.

Peffers and Stirling agreeing on something and me agreeing with them both.

You have all been had by Mrs May.

It is a naked political move to cover her tracks and appeal to black voters in the wake of Windrush.

I am against having a day like this, regardless of colour, it will only perpetuate this awful event, the mother Mrs.Lawrence wants to 'draw a line' after 25 years but now there will be the opposite, forensically examined each April and the community ever further from healing.

The public are not responsible for what happened at all and should not bear any guilt imposed by Mrs May.

I will not be observing it personally or any other of Mrs May's micro managing of people's lives.

She can get stuffed.
