Living in Riga (Channel) 🇪🇺🇱🇻🇬🇧

▶️ The social situation at the very bottom of society in Latvia is on the road to hell: Other than even in any winter ever since the rogue 1990s, in 2026 intoxicated, reluctant, potentially aggressive, homeless poor souls are invading stairways and apartment buildings in the very Center of Riga. In summer. This is not winter yet. Inflation breaks society apart. Guard your homes, this is only the very beginning this summer 2026 (and it's a clear threat to your wifes, girlfriends, daughters, mothers, grandmothers at their homes) 😱😱 Don't close your eyes, please 🇱🇻 #livinginriga #liveriga
