I expect there will be an intifada theme this year, with separate Hamas and Hezbollah floats.
They should go unisex. Himas and Herzbollah.

Happy Windrush Day!
"A 32-year-old woman is in a life-threatening condition after being stabbed at the Notting Hill Carnival, the Metropolitan Police has said.
The force says it is aware of two other people who have been stabbed during the west London festival - including a 29-year-old man and a 24-year-old man.
About 7,000 officers are patrolling this year's event which is expected to attract about one million people across Sunday and Monday.
Issuing an update on Sunday night, the Met said 90 arrests have been made for a range of offences and "15 officers have been assaulted".
The alleged crimes included assault on an emergency worker, assault, possession with intent to supply, sexual offences and robbery, the police said.
"Hundreds of thousands of people came to Notting Hill Carnival to enjoy a fantastic celebration," the Met said."

That's 7,000 cops that could be investigating rapes, rather than watching them happen.

Or investigating this in the pre-Labour period. This man needs a good kicking. Then jailing. Then another kicking. "A Nando's waitress who was hit with a plate in an 'unprovoked' attack by a male customer claims she was 'grossly let down' by the police. The female staff member broke her silence after the 'savage' assault took place in March at a branch in Stratford, London, with footage of the incident going viral this week after it was shared on X. In a seven-minute video posted onto social media, she criticised the Met's response to the incident, stating that she as 'really disappointed and let down with what happened at the time with the police'. She also spoke to camera in detail about what happened in the restaurant in the moments before she was struck and claimed the force had re-opened the investigation 'thanks to all the support and the attention it [the video] has been receiving online'. The woman said: 'I don't think the situation would have garnered as much attention as it has, but the support has been overwhelming." www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13778167/Nandos-waitress-attack-restaurant-police.html

"Eight people were stabbed during the Notting Hill Carnival with a total of 334 people being arrested during the event, the Metropolitan Police has said. There with three stabbings on Sunday, with one of the victims being a young mother who was with a child. She remains in a critical condition. On Monday, five people were stabbed, with two of those attacked being critically injured. The Met said a total of 50 officers had been injured during the event, while most of the arrests were for possessing an offensive weapon or drug offences." www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c07e55159kroWhy has the BBC closed to aggregate the figures for the past two years? Is it yo disguise worsening criminality at this event?

I see there are almost no spaces in jails due to the Notting Hill Riots, despite the ludicrously light-touch, two-tier policing shown towards the Notting Hill rioters. Labour. "The number of spare prison places in male jails has fallen to just 100, it emerged on Tuesday. It is the closest the prison service has come to running out of space in male jails, although officials at the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) were hoping on Tuesday that they would not have to introduce further emergency measures. The MoJ has already activated Operation Early Dawn, under which defendants are kept in police cells until prison spaces become available. The problems have been worsened by a surge in arrests over the Bank Holiday weekend, including 330 at the Notting Hill Carnival in west London. Sources suggested MoJ officials are confident they will manage without having to activate further emergency measures, known as Operation Brinker." www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/08/27/only-100-places-male-prisons/

I expect those trials will be set back to a time and date that's convenient for the defendants and that they will be held in, rather than on, camera.

Why does it shock anyone that several million people being part of a massive carnival street party celebration involves some lawlessness? Why is it commented on every year?

Oh carnival!
I was in Brum over the weekend so missed it but mate’s photos look amazing. Clearly I am not too old for it so may head there next year if I can tolerate the crowds.

What's odd though, is that the left have taken to saying, "Well it's a black event so what do you expect?" Bit racist if you ax, I mean ask, me.
