Apparently the police are getting reinforcements from other areas. All Police leave cancelled.
If the scummers were smart they would get in their cars and go to a large town like Leeds or something.
And kick it off there. Be where the police aren’t.
Get Tottis mates to kick off up North again and see how quickly that holds true.
jesus
I think this was just brilliant from Rio
“The solution to this is not to just clean up the glass, its to stop the glass breaking in the 1st place.”
England - Holland game cancelled, now it must be really really serious.
the British Lion is obviously pretty upset with the destruction of the capital city of the realm.
no matter how disenfranchised or uneducated these kids are, they are not so stupid to know that this looting is wrong.
agree that its a sign of a broken society. The materialism of the rioters is amazing though. They dont try and rob banks but want what the rich kids have iPads, smart phones etc. Probably will sell it back to them. Raises an interesting moral dilemma - would you buy something you knew to be stolen?
wouldnt be a fan of whataboutery arguments - media, govt, banks do destroy societies but thats not an excuse for further criminal activity.
Thatcher’s harvest.
Mate of mine living in Clapham said he is looking forward to picking up all manner of electrical goods on the cheap over the coming days.

Not just Thatcher, Labour had 5 million on benefits. Immigrants needed to do the work while the underclasses arse around
Labour took the ball of Thatcherism and ran with it.
I can safely say this will all peter out and tonight will be a let down.
These groups seems largely unorganised and their “success” so far has been more down to a police reluctance to start cracking skulls than anything else. Last nights actions will have put the general law-abing public firmly on the side of police and political clearnace will now be given to them to start battering the fuck out of the rioters. Once they start fighting back, the rioters won’t be long dispersing, they only seem to be doing it at the moment because they are being given a free rein to do as they please.
Big time Sid.
thats the thing, a lot who complain now will do the same. similar to the way they buy drugs, prostitutes etc from the ‘scum’
same thing will happen in Ireland too. It already did when the Glasgow Celtic shirted mob used the orange cunt march to wreck the city. Cuts to education and other public services will lead to more disenfranchised youths. Ireland isnt as divided a society as the UK but still saving corrupt failed private institutions will have a huge consequence socially in the near future
Sales of universal remote controls will go through the roof after this.
Globalisation is the underlying cause of all of this and it goes back to colonialism.
Right wingers moan about multiculturalism completely oblivious to the fact that it is a product of the rigged world economic system they advocate.
The basic principle of Thatcherism/Reaganism was: why make things in Britain when it can be done by slave labour in third world countries?
The basic principle of western capitalism was to keep third world countries poor by rigging the rules of world trade against them.
The ideology of rampant greed and profit accepts, even advocates an increasing gap between rich and poor.
So you have an underclass of white English who believe they have no stake in the system, and a parallel immigrant underclass who believe they have even less stake in it.
Yet they are still indoctrinated with the individualistic get rich quick principles of Thatcherite capitalism as it has been the prevailing culture in Britain and the rest of the English speaking world through the media etc for the last 30/40 years,
Capitalism will eat the human race some time within the next 100 years.
Capitalism won’t be eating me I can tell ya. I’ll be eating capitalism.
Your problem is that you eat way too much you fat fook
