Using an imgur link in a UK community isn't a great idea, as imgur block UK IPs.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

From OP body text 🙃
Considering the region blocking you may want some contingencies in the form of a proxy??
backstory here?
Ugh. Okay, so: last December, Henry Nowak (a dual UK-Polish citizen) was stabbed by Vickrum Singh Digwa (a UK-born UK citizen of the Sikh faith). After the altercation, Mr Nowak was handcuffed by the police, who did not believe he had been stabbed, and died on the sidewalk. Mr Digwa was convicted of the murder on June 1st, and the bodycam footage of Mr Nowak was released last week. The UK right-wing (and their foreign sponsors) have spent several months using the incident to help foster anti-immigrant sentiment.
A couple days ago, a Sudanese man living in Belfast stabbed his neighbor, a disabled man named Stephen Ogilvie. Right-wing figures claim that it was an attempted beheading; I do not know enough details of the attack to definitively refute that, but believe it unlikely. Elon Musk, himself an immigrant of dubious origins and even more questionable beliefs, echoed the calls from various UK right-wing figures for anti-immigrant protests, with at least one figure saying, "Do not make peace with evil. Destroy it."
Mobs formed, some going down streets and breaking into houses where they suspected immigrants were living. They torched cars and sent them rolling down the street, stole a bus and set it on fire, etc. The UK right wing (as far as I can tell) appears to be doing little (if anything) to de-escalate the situation. It is not a good time to be a visible minority in parts of Ireland, Scotland, or the UK.
The gentleman in this video is attempting to show one of the masked mobs in the streets, and is promptly attacked for being a visible minority.
What. In the actual fuck.
Sorry for the links to hellsite, but:
Here's a video of a masked mob going down a Belfast street, trying and sometimes succeeding in breaking down doors to get into houses of suspected immigrants. And here's one where they set a vehicle on fire and sent it down the street.
If you google for more Belfast videos, make sure to specify something like "mobs", "fires", "riots", etc, as the video of the second stabbing is fairly prevalent online.
The Wikipedia article is getting updated regularly, but is obviously not as polished as events are still evolving.
gottdamn.
thats.. a suitcase..
