At least 20 people, many of them women and children, have been killed in a stampede in south-eastern Niger, reports say.
Refugees from neighbouring Nigeria were queuing for food and money in the town of Diffa when the incident took place, according to local sources.
Ten other people were injured.
The region is home to around 120,000 people displaced by years of violence carried out by Boko Haram militants in north-eastern Nigeria.
How did you see the story? You don't see it on the BBC homepage unless you scroll specifically to the Africa sections of the news site. If you Google 'Niger news', however, it's the top hit.

it's called bing.com.. they have a nifty thing called a " news feed " that scrolls recent events...
it's sad that when you see a news report of women & children being killed in Niger.. the 1st thing you feel the need to think about is the name of their country seems racist...
it shows you only view things through a Racist lens.. which is what Racists do..
you are not here to talk about the news story... … which ironically is something you questioned about me --> " or story NP is genuinely interested in discussing?"
" nation-wide shock and outrage greeted reports of the massacre of no fewer than 30 persons by Boko Haram insurgents following their invasion of Sunday, February 10, 2020, of Auno, a village 25 kilometres from Maiduguri, Borno state capital."

feel free to discuss the actual story.. otherwise you are just trying to bait & derail ..
I am inviting you to share what it is about the story you find so interesting and that you wish to discuss. I hadn't realised that would be such a difficult question to answer.

Well put, he hates white people. The constant China is superior in every way threads, even though he lives in London are a big indication of how he feels rejected by our society. His drift towards Islam is an even bigger indicator of how lonely and vulnerable he is.
He blames white people for not giving him the time of day. This is misconstrued as racism, but the reality is that he has nothing of interest to offer them. So he yearns for the nanny state to tell people how to live and what to think. Little does he realise that once the extreme left have total control, that if you don't produce more than you consume then you have no use.
If he wasn't such an undignified wanker that runs to the moderators at any given chance, I'd pity him.

Never seen a BoJo-supporting Brexit-lover described as "extreme left".

me neither.. good thing Ram didn't do that.. Ram references the extreme Left separate from referencing Ma'aM.. " Little does he realise that once the extreme left have total control, that if you don't produce more than you consume then you have no use. "

Jeremy Corbyn was originally for Brexit, until he was forced to tow the party line. I didn't realise that he was a supporter of Johnson but that's probably down to the fact that Johnson has been quite China friendly. Maybe mrswkd can elaborate more on why he's fond of Johnson?
I do consider that the way mrswkd conducts himself as far left, rather than explore anything he doesn't agree with or knows little about. He tries to shut down debate with his accusations of racism.
It's true enough that the Brexit/Remain question wasn't a simple Right/Left divide, but supporting Boris Johnson is totally incompatible with being "left" in any way except "left my critical faculties behind".

I'll bet it all boils down to the his trust in Huawei, his refusal to join Trump's trade war with China and his enthusiasm to open trade talks with China.

Do you think that's Boris Becker in my profile picture?
Is it Johnson wanting to end the early realise of any Islamic terrorists or his deportation of black criminals that you like about him? Come on, actually say something. What is it that you like about him?

I really like the points system being suggested for future immigration. Could that be why you like boris?
Come on mrswkd. I know why you like him and I've already stated the reason prove me wrong.
