Riots in the UK

[Jordan]

You just know the riot police are like "What the hell" xD

Just heard from my parents (they're copperrrs) that quite alot of officers from Devon & Cornwall police have gone to London. The shock they get when they realize theres more to policing than locking up youths driving over 50mph on country lanes or underage drinking. Oh my.

Yee the local news just said 25 from Cornwall, 25 from devon and 25 from somerset went up to London.

[RyRy]

Yee the local news just said 25 from Cornwall, 25 from devon and 25 from somerset went up to London.

As if they took some from Somerset, Bristol has its own problems! They're gonna be in for suuuuuch a culture shock, especially in Devon where I rarely ever see a black person, they're gonna think they've went on a bus to the middle east.

[Firehorse]

Yee the local news just said 25 from Cornwall, 25 from devon and 25 from somerset went up to London.

So about 80% of their forces?

[Jordan]

Haha, they said it wouldn't effect them tonight even though they have increased policing over Cornwall and Devon.

[Accipiter]

Laughed at a fb group

"Going to pick up benefits but realise you burnt down the post office..."

[RyRy]

Haha, they said it wouldn't effect them tonight even though they have increased policing over Cornwall and Devon.

Really? I'd be surprised if it hit Plymouth... I can imagine it happening in Torquay though, and they'd get away with so much because the police are so unprepared down there.

They were a bit worried of Drake Circus, but I agree with you if it did hit here, which it probably won't it would be so un organised.

oh, attacking a 60 year old man. why??????

Loool, the riots seem to be dying though. But this could be just a dip and could become bigger in the days to come. The Boardmasters festival is on Friday in Newquay y'never know.

All the boarders rioting because Fearne Cotton is down there for it. I can see that happening if she's in a bikini, damn. They're not dying at all, Manchester violence is new to the situation.

She said on Radio 1 yesterday she was going to wear shorts and flip flops, but if the weathers crap, which its meant to be wellies instead. I want to go but I don't have the money to spend on the tickets :(

This stuff in Manchester is pretty bad, didn't realise how big it was.

[RyRy]

Afraid not surfing is so boring and Newquay is a bit of a mish. There'll be pics on Radio 1 website probably, yum yum.

You know lifes gotten bad when you listen to David Cameron's speech regarding the riots & think he's talking sense. All downhill from here ;'(

not that much breaking news being reported on sky news atm

[Neversoft]

I can't even believe this riot is still going. How can so much of the English population be so stupid. Everyone partaking in it needs to be shot or at least bashed around the head a couple of times. WHAT HAS BECOME OF ENGLAND!? MY PROUD NATION. Why doesn't the Queen use some of her magic? Why doesn't Boris get on his unicorn and spread rainbows and joy around the country? WHAT IS GOING ON?

Anyone else get annoyed when the BBC refer to videos as pictures? I know they're 'moving pictures' but there is clearly a distinction between the two. |-)

"DanTheFox No idea what you are saying. But your beards are matched by only your courage and altruism. Peace X"

Great comment. He isn't speaking English right? I'm good with accents but can't make out a word

sangat tv has been really good for reporting stuff in birmingham, since the bbc are only concerned with london evem when there's **** all going on there tonight.

0110: Council rubbish lorries on fire in Tottenham – sparks reportedly 200 feet high there now.

0107: Peter Beaumont of The Observer (there’s a newspaper you don’t hear about often) is on the spot in Tottenham; there is a fire at the council recycling depot there. Explosion not long ago, may have been a fuel tank of some description.

Starting in Tottenham again?

[dbgtz]

Is tonight worse or a bit better? I find it funny that this still is happening despite the additional force that was supposedly introduced.

Anyway these riots have nothing compared to the riots in hallway 1.

0131:

There have been reports of a series of loud explosions at a diesel depot near Tottenham High Road, in North London. The fire, police and ambulance services are all at the scene, between Ashley Road and Park View Road. The police have been telling residents they are assessing the situation, to decide whether they will need to start evacuating houses nearby.

Havent been following thread or news for a few hours, small update. Brent garbage truck been stolen and driven around my area at high speed, probaby unreported elsewhere.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I cannot believe you are trying to make political capital out of what is happening. These are not race riots. They are a small minority of criminals from all sections of the community when the majority of all sections of community are law abiding. I find your stance on this thread quite sickening actually. Unbelievably you are an advocate of cutting public spending to the bone - you can see how well that worked last night when the amount of personnel available to the emergency services could not cope. Do you think that all police leave being cancelled shows that they are properly resourced?

Oh my.

Firstly, public spending is not being cut rather its being increased (sadly)so you can stop before you start concerning that one; http://www.spectator.co.uk/coffeehouse/7122543/what-you-need-to-know-ahead-of-tomorrows-growth-figures.thtml - I do get bored of repeating myself over and over again concerning the debt issue on the facts rather than the political rhetoric. There are nice charts there for people who can't understand numbers or who don't want to understand them.

But on the issues i've raised, i've raised them because people like yourself, your party and the other two parties have for years not punished criminals properly, have destroyed education, have allowed the destruction of the family and have opened the floodgates of immigration and now we are paying the price. I am fed up to the back teeth of people like yourself living in a fantasy world while millions in our country (usually the poorest) live a living hell as you make excuses for criminals and the wicked.

This violence and breakdown occurs in some parts of the country day-in, day-out and people have just been abandoned to it.

Sorry it is you with all the political ideologies - none of which have been proven in practice. You just posted to try to prove your point again which you do in any thread that gives you the slightest hook to shove your minority political views down our throat. Also you can be exceedingly patronising. Do you think that you are the only intelligent, enlightened person on the forum? Nobody in this country lives in hell....they do in Somalia. I haven't made any excuse for any criminals. Tell me where I have. You are also saying that no police budgets have been slashed? Come on, Dan stop playing with charts and figures and touch down on the earth. Listen to what the people have to say who actually work on the front line of these services. The people indulging in the riots are a small minority who are criminals and probablu egged on by people with extreme agendas but it doesn't help when people with political views like yours go around over blowing it and quoting person from over 50 years ago who was undoubtably borderline racist himself.

There are people who live in this country in the most deprived areas who are forced to live amongst constant muggings, among thugs, have to attend the worst schools and the government and the Police fail to act concerning crime in general - and people like yourself pretend it does not go on in the most deprived areas, what a disgrace. Come and visit some inner city estates in the likes of Liverpool and tell me along with locals its not hell.

It is harder to go to University in this country than it is prison, and they're not scared of our prisons either.


I haven't made any excuse for any criminals. Tell me where I have.

By bringing the 'cuts' into it (which i've proven are false time and time again) along with generally supporting a party over the past few years which has done exactly the same - human rights acts, rehabilitation (which doesn't exist) and so forth. Again you've shown just how naive or ignorant you are to what goes on in areas like these with gun crime and muggings.


You are also saying that no police budgets have been slashed? Come on, Dan stop playing with charts and figures and touch down on the earth. Listen to what the people have to say who actually work on the front line of these services.

Indeed thats what i'm saying, as the economic data shows it. It doesn't suit you on the left to hear this because you of course depend and are basing your whole ideology for re-election on the basis that the Conservatives are implementing terrible cuts.. on the other hand the Conservatives are saying there are cuts because their support relies on the fact that they are 'clearing up' Labour's terrible mess.

Neither are true, i've given you the facts and look how you've reacted to them.


The people indulging in the riots are a small minority who are criminals and probablu egged on by people with extreme agendas

So the criminals agree with me you think? that we need Police who will protect and enforce punishment on those who do wrong, that prisons should be harsh and not a nice experience, that welfare should be slashed for these peope.. or do you think that they'd agree with you which is the opposite to what i've just listed?

Judging by the strong support for Labour in these areas, I think so.


but it doesn't help when people with political views like yours go around over blowing it and quoting person from over 50 years ago who was undoubtably borderline racist himself.

Any evidence Enoch Powell was racist? what, none? thats right.

Any evidence that mass immigration was a fatal error and that Mr. Powell was correct? plenty.

I think they should just send in the army and have a nationwide curfew or something.

A pain - yes. But it would sort this out.

[Accipiter]

Switched Sky News on at 3 o'clock yesterday, there were reports of a fire arm being discharged on a police officer, is this true?

I'm hearing of deaths, if they carry on this way I would mind a civil war against scum, they deserve to inbreed like Hill billys because I don't want their genes inflicted on any other part of society.

Just to let you guys know there's an official petition for stopping the benefits of those convicted for rioting in London, it needs 100,000 signatures to be considered for debate in the House of Commons. Here's the link; http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/7337 So far there's 70,815 signatures so hopefully the 100,000 mark will be achieved!

You obviously don't understand how international media works then.*REMOVED*, you really cant say anything as most Australians originate from prisoners, contradicting yourself their?

I'm glad. What they did was disgusting.

I don't think there's anything happening in Manchester at the moment but they're closing some shops early just in case.

[beth]

am i the only person who thinks the 'injured boy' was also a looter. not condoning what they did to him.

[chantellehugs]

Yeah it probably won't, they'll use the excuse about human rights and all that stuff. Though I'm pretty sure the thugs disregarded their human rights when they started acting like wild animals :(

[beth]

i thought he was just a little chinese man who had his lunchboxes taken

find it all very suspicious. they took something new out of his bag then threw away the box. they haven't shown any previous footage and the guy himself hasn't come forward. if they were this big victim they'd probably be on the news telling their terrible tale. just my theory anyway. think he got into a fight with another looter and got knocked out (where the footage starts).
i don't think it's right to attack an injured man, but if you go to these riots and put yrself in that situation: **** happens.

[buttons]

definitely disgusted about the triple murder in birmingham so sad, but i knew that leave it long enough brum would get violent.
yeah that was so sad, they were only protecting the area. was the hit and run person actually a rioter though or just a coincidence?

am i the only person who thinks the 'injured boy' was also a looter. not condoning what they did to him.
yeah possible but he was bleeding and walking by himself not covered up etc, don't really think they'd go for another looter and why was he beat up in the first place?
oh ok read your other post, it's possible ofc he hasn;t came forward probably because he's in hospital and maybe getting spoken to? someone posted his name on a facebook page and said thanks for the support

[Stephen]

but the thing that guy got out of his bag looked as if it was brand new because he threw away the wrapper or whatever didnt he

Albeit you don't get your jaw broken by just walking, so clearly something sparked him, and im guessing he wasn't a vigilante

think people are coming from different cities to riot against the rioters or something like that. Aslong as it's only the looting rioters that get killed then it should be ok

[chantellehugs]

I think Birmingham is going to turn into a racial thing, my friend told me there's always been racial tension between asian and black people. It's not right that they plan to 'riot hard' because the shops that they're destroying have nothing to do with it.

THIS. This is definitely very true.
----------------------

The year below mine (year 12's from september) have involuntarily given approximately £2000 each in foreign aid over the next 2 years, and a few thousand full time salaries ontop of that from cut jobs in the police and army alone. I bet they're thrilled. Great idea Cameron. The aid provided with this money is a one off vaccination which is unsustainable and means more aid will be needed in future and more mouths to feed. Our government is clueless.


It's the fact the aid is being used unsustainably. Giving people a vaccine doesn't improve living conditions, doesn't stop famine. It is just one less thing to die from and this so called aid package is just the drug companies shifting overstock whilst getting our government to pay for it. This 'aid' won't solve any long term problems, and is a product of our government trying to look like they care but at the same time not knowing how to.

The way these American students report about the riots makes me annoyed. They're acting as if people are cleaning up after a party rather than a riot.

[Kasabian]

Didn't follow it much last night.

Our town center was suppose to open late tonight(extra 2 hours), but this has been canceled as a precaution(inside information).

Also, AFC Telford United v Luton Town FC has been called off(scheduled for Saturday), as there is an EDL march in the afternoon and police will be stretched. (West Merica assisting London and patrolling Birmingham/Wolverhampton too).

Pissed off about the football, but you can see why it's been done (for precaution measures).

I think we've seen the worst of the riots/looting, and if anything will happen again it won't be for a week or so.

Love how GMP and other forces are naming the people on twitter who have been through the courts and sentenced. Including their DOB and address! Kudos for publicly naming the rioters.

find it all very suspicious. they took something new out of his bag then threw away the box. they haven't shown any previous footage and the guy himself hasn't come forward. if they were this big victim they'd probably be on the news telling their terrible tale. just my theory anyway. think he got into a fight with another looter and got knocked out (where the footage starts).
i don't think it's right to attack an injured man, but if you go to these riots and put yrself in that situation: **** happens.
He was on BBC News yesterday in hospital recovering.

yeah i saw ha (: i take back all i said, guess i'm just a suspicious person ;).

To be honest I've looked at the footage closely and it appears they stole a psp with headphones wrapped around it, in a lunchbox.

All fine from that POV.

I've got a good game for us to all play:

Identify the London Rioters, so worth it if you actually do!

Had shop keeps been allowed to have guns in this country, does anyone suggest it would have gone this far? or that as many shops would be robbed in this country as is normal day-in and day-out?

I wouldn't be surprised if something kicks off. Anything to cause trouble, even if the intentions are peaceful.

i understand why the community in winson green (where the murders happened) want to do the rally but i think it's far far too soon. the dust needs to just settle. theres growing speculation on a 'race war' between the two communities there. and i just think this is going to provide a perfect opportunity for something to happen.

There's an EDL(English Defense League) march in telford on saturday, marching/protesting against the convicted asian pedophiles from telford.

There's also an UAF(United Against Fascism) march at the same time.

Could get quite messy.

Our father, who art in prison, my mum knows not his name, thy rioting done, you'll read it in the sun, in Birmingham as it is in London, give us this day our welfare bread and forgive us for looting, as we forgive those who give ASBOs against us, lead us not into employment but deliver us free housing, for thine is the petrol bomb, the plunder and all its glories, forever and ever... I'm a ********!

hehe

Rioting is stupid, whats the point of destroying your own city.
