Understood. Sorry to hear that. :(

I reiterate my previous comments. I sense the Govt will build up to a proper response to this, so they don't 'upset' anyone in the meantime.

It will be too late by then, the damage will have been done. This is bound to make the economy deteriorate further. People will stop shopping, travelling, living, because of their fear.

You're probably right Lisa, but BBC news at 9pm did lead on Manchester and the Arndale Centre.

Amazing live reports on News 24 from there too. I hope I am not speaking too soon, but London appears a bit quieter tonight.

Quote " It's very scary sitting at a set of lights while a group of people emerge from a wrecked shop just next to the lights brandishing merchandise and talking excitedly about what they have just stolen "

Tell you what mate luckly you did not jump them set off lights had the mob tried to get at you as bet the fine for jumping the red light would have been with you long before the scum got theres and 100% sure I know who would be paying the biggest fine !!!!.

Yep .... sadly that is the case. Cameron has been way too slow over this ... mind you imagine if it was Milliband :eek:

Funny you should say that as I was thinking the same thing at the lights... if even the slightest whiff of attention turns towards me I am off... red light or no red light.... and I will just have to fight the fine... funny how things like that go through your head :D

Imagine if it had been Brown!!??

Surely this is the time for the mob to drag him out onto the streets, Mussolini style!? No one has blamed Brown for 1% of what he has helped to cause here, IMO.

Asif

Brown can't speed up evolution.

While I agree with you Asif, to a certain extent, Brown is no longer relevant, a failed politician and karma will do her thing as regards him eventually.

Right now I would rather we spent our efforts persuading Caneron to wake up and smell the coffee!

Right, now you've settled your nerves - The Police have been cleared to use plastic bullets and there's a battalion on standby. What do you want Cameron to do, put fcuking riot gear on? The poor coppers are probably terrified of pulling the trigger in case they kill someone.....they wouldn't want to start a riot or lose their job or face a trial by media.....

Why not support the people trying to manage this instead of demeaning yourself by linking pure criminality to Tory policy? That is all. :razz:

Shame if its been looted but I cant imagine they would want most of the stuff in there, would be tragic if it were burnt down, it happened before but dont know if it would survive another one.

Look this is how it is. Cameron is the PM. he has the army, plastic bullets, curfews and martial law at his disposal ... take your pick out of any combination of those, but looking at Manchester tonight his idea of tough policing by consent is not working. And right now I don't care whether he is Tory, Labour, EDL, BNP, SWP or whatever other frigging party you can think iof. As the PM I want him to get tough.

Yes, he NEEDS to get tough, now and in the future, I can cope with knowing the Police have these powers as I wont be out rioting, all my kids are present and accounted for, their only crimes being leaving dirty glasses around in the lounge and moaning about going to bed.

It's unprecedented flash riots FFS!! Everyone wants it sorted but you're talking as if it's a simple fix! I get your frustration, but you're just not looking at it clearly. What do you propose? I take it you've changed your mind about killing everyone or should we get all al-Assad on the fcukers? Drink your brandy and give it a rest. Fcuking hell. :D

:lol: Pure genuis. The regular ad makes me snigger, but that ^^^ is something else! LOL :cool: :D

Why don't you give it a rest eh? You always pose questions, but never any answers! You seem more worried how the UK looks to your beloved world stage than whether its people can walk down the stret in safety. FFS indeed!

low life scum..... is this what the big society looks like????

Well, if you like. Moff to bed, and as the bloke on crimewatch used to say, don't have nightmares. X

Well we can now add Leicester to the list. Electrical shops have been looted in town, with other places like the Highcross shopping centre also broken into and vandalised and possibly more looting taken place inside. Riot police out in force watching the action.

Wasn't expecting it to happen here as we don't have gang related probems. :mad:

Mainly white thugs claiming to be part of EDL. Now making their way into the predominantly Asian residential area. Not looking good at all.

Isn't that just like a normal afternoon in Millwall before kick-off

Birmingham is not doing too good.

As the looters went into Lozzels and Aston it all kicked off with the local Asians.


Didn't go so well, one police officer has been shot, two Pakistani guys have been run over and one of them has died.

To top it offend repercussions (sp) tommorrow are going to be worse. If it isn't controlled soon it's going to turn into another race riot.

Three Pakistani guys were walking along the pavement. Some loon in a car mounted the kerb.

Amazing first for Brum. The Sikhs and Muslims are working together.

No need to build new jails - just transfer to a remote Scottish island , leave tents , water and oats. End of.
I know our friends in Jockland will oppose , but they did impose Blair and Brown on us .

Just seen footage of Sikhs in Southall with hockey sticks and baseball bats :thumb:, the police should arrest the looters, and dump them at Southall's doorstep and let that community teach them a lesson. No need for custody cells, paperwork etc.

As for the tossers who have damaged Fire appliances in Liverpool. Hope THEIR family homes catch fire tonight and the Fire service can't get there as a result of the vandalism with their families burning to death nice and slowly.

Sky news reporting that two have died.

Hope they catch the idiot driving.

IMHO This whole farce will be used to rush in some new law removing part of our rights......

The sleazy government will always be looking for opertunitys (sp?) to grab more power.

Birkenhead got hit last night .. (probably difficult to tell) but apparently it's pretty bad :( I have to drive through there today to go to and from work, dropping the misses off and through Liverpool centre .. will post up some photos if I spot anything ..

Might have been Millwall,but i did notice they wern't smashing up cars,maybe we need to get a few more firms together.

You want a family to burn to death because of the actions of one member of their family ? probably a kid whos been brought up badly and doesn't grasp what they are doing ?
