Riot in Tottenham

Ah fair enough, I was enjoying the shock on the cunt Burley’s face.

I’ll be disappointed if we dont see heads being cracked tonight. Time get the boys back from the Middle East and let them loose.

Obviously not as widespread as London but with it being the curry capital of the world, I expect some bit of action tonight.

Are their any reasoned estimates on the economic damage done to date?

€100m

No. Sky News were saying that it would run into millions.

Sounds like incredible lowball. Like that furniture shop and the Sony warehouse that went up last night would have been worth that alone.

Hundreds of millions. They are reporting looting like its just a pack of crisps being stolen.
Jewellery shops and electronics stores all being looted and it’s just being lost in the shuffle. By the time this is over you could break a billion.

This could be the economic stimulus the UK needs. We should burn down the oversupply of housing here.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission have said that their intial investigation will show that Mark Duggan did not fire at the police.

He may have drawn a weapon but it was not fired.

The rebuilding job should create an even bigger boom. This is good for the British economy.

:smiley:

This all reminds me of Clonmel '11 and Paris '68. Are ye bringing a big firm next year?

I’d be interested to hear Ben Shermin’s views on this from both a racial and a public transport point of view. London’s excellent public transport system has been used as one of the reasons why these immigrant rioters have found it so easy to travel between flashpoints.

We have a suspect

Indeed, this may well save Dublin from the same fate.

A reletively intellicual chap at work was telling me today that a lot of the shops that were looted/burned down wouldn’t be covered by their insurance as there is a clause some of them have meaning that you are not covered for acts of “civil unrest”. don’t know hown true it is though

Breaking News: A 16 year old boy has been detained on suspiciou of trying to encourage riots via Facebook.

FFS

The riots will spread from Ballymun to Crumlin as soon as the 19a arrives

No bloody wonder the Old Bill can’t deal with this when they’re all on Facebook all day.

What an opportunity the rebuilding will provide for our down on its luck construction sector. We should be selling back the iPads and phones from our Currys at twice the price we paid for them too.
