A more complete story is at legacy BBC:

A girl who was stabbed in the neck as she walked down the street has been released from hospital.

The 17-year-old was attacked as she walked along Wood Street in Brierfield, Lancashire, at about 15:00 BST on Friday.

A 30-year-old, described by Lancashire Police as a British man of Pakistani heritage, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder of the teenager, who the BBC understands is also of Pakistani heritage.

"This was a very serious incident but thankfully the girl's injuries were not life-threatening," a police spokesman said.

This seems not to have provoked riots, since both victim and perp were of Pakistani heritage; had the victim been of native UK working-class stock, we may surmise the outcome would have been different. Meanwhile, legacy media stressed "anti-racism" demonstrations:

Belfast had its “largest ever” anti-racism rally on Saturday afternoon, with thousands of people gathering in the city centre.

Speakers at the event included Lord Mayor Róis-Máire Donnelly, the SDLP’s Matthew O’Toole, trade union representatives and figures from voluntary and migrant support groups.

Ahead of the event, AI-generated posters advertising an anti-immigration counter-protest had been circulated online. The turnout for the counter-protest was small.

Meanwhile, at a similar event in Londonderry, a Guyanese woman said anti-racism rallies “let people know that there is hope”.

Nurse Beverly Simpson, who attended the event at the Guildhall, said: “I think it is fantastic to see so many people supportive. People are so aware of what is happening and totally against racism.”

But the problem isn't race. The problem is 80 years government policy bringing in third-world migrants to keep wages down, when the migrants arrive in such numbers that they can't be assimilated. The fact that even after generations in the UK, they murder each other over issues like honor killings (the likely root of the incident above) is an illustration of the problem. That the mayor, other politicians, and union officials would headline the Belfast "anti-racism" rally indicates that the official line will be that protests about migrant stabbings and rapes are "racist".

But apparently this isn't enough:

Britain’s minister for Northern Ireland, Hilary Benn, delivers a warning to those who complain on social media about their stabbing or beheading. Minister Benn notes the danger created by people online sharing information from Belfast after two days of civic unrest in the city following a migrant stabbing and slicing a local resident.

. . . “Social media companies have a very heavy responsibility. It’s why we’re going to bring forward new powers next week to make it clear that social media companies need to take down illegal content, particularly when we are facing circumstances such as the ones we’ve seen in Northern Ireland over the last two days”

According to The Guardian,

Social media companies have been ordered to have emergency measures in place to stop illegal content going viral, as regulators battle to stop the type of misinformation spiral that circulated after the 2024 summer riots.

Sites such as X, formerly Twitter, and TikTok will have to have a “crisis protocol” in place to intervene when the sharing of dangerous content begins to rise.

Under the measures to be implemented by Ofcom, the UK’s tech regulator, online platforms will also need to reserve a dedicated line of communication channel through which the police can contact them in a crisis.

. . . Ofcom said it would define a crisis as an “extraordinary situation in which there is a serious threat to public safety in the United Kingdom”, which is highly likely to have “resulted from a significant increase in relevant content”.

. . . “For example, evidence from previous crisis events illustrate how the perpetrators use online services to carry out illegal activity, such as inciting racial or religious hatred, making threats or inciting violence. This can lead to an increase in the amount of illegal content circulating online but also manifest in violence in the real world.

“Such crises are exceptional, and this means that online service providers’ usual content moderation systems and processes may not be sufficient in such circumstances.”

The bar for the implementation of such protocols is high, dealing with outright illegal content. The new measures will come into force after being approved by parliament.

The main problem for the UK government is Elon Musk.

The government had already been mulling the option of banning X under the Online Safety Act:

The UK government is threatening Elon Musk’s X with the nuclear option under the country’s online safety laws: a ban. The social media platform is under pressure from ministers after it allowed the Grok AI tool, which is integrated within the app, to generate indecent images of unsuspecting women and children.

. . . The Online Safety Act (OSA) contains a provision that allows Ofcom to seek a court order imposing “business disruption measures” on a website or app that is in breach of the legislation. These measures are in effect a block on the recipient operating in the UK.

. . . Ofcom said it must follow due process as part of its investigation. “As the UK’s independent online safety enforcement agency, it’s important we make sure our investigations are legally robust and fairly decided,” it said.

Ofcom’s own guidance also makes clear this is not workaday punishment under the act and such measures are not a “matter of routine”. “We acknowledge that business disruption measures are a significant regulatory intervention and therefore we are unlikely to find it appropriate to apply to the courts for business disruption measures as a matter of routine where we have identified failures, or likely failures, to comply with enforceable requirements,” Ofcom said.

It seems to me that the problem Labour faces is that in the current migrant crisis, stabbings and rapes are going to continue at a pretty rapid rate -- as are equivalent episodes with homeless and mentally disturbed individuals in the US. Labour's aim will be to keep such continuing episodes from being publicized, rather than to try to solve the underlying problem. But in trying to rein in Musk's own perceived right to free speech, this will likely annoy Trump and others in his circle like Rubio and Vance, since Musk has their ear.

Well, good luck. I think Musk's post above suggests he understands the one solution to the UK's migrant crisis: call early elections. Letting Labour stay in power another three years will be disastrous.
