Hope my fellow londoners are ok?

[Rebelrc]

Clarkson for primeminister ! He won't take this tomfoolery !
This government is crap... How do you like your cut backs now! Pathetic

[longy8ight]

these idiots doing this all over the country are mindless t@!ts with shit for brains,is sadening to see this shit going on on the telly,get the army in and shoot the fucking lot of em thats what i say.

[Ant]

There are a lot of one-man-bands whose businesses have been destroyed and people left homeless.
I'm sure that they are going to feel a lot better when they realise that the money they have paid in tax is going to pay for the solicitors who will argue for the release of those arrested.
If solicitors had any morals (?) they should all turndown representing these cases

[MALLET]

So where are the police with the 12 gauge bean bag shot. That will sort them out and yes where are all the police dogs......

[colmo]

FYI, the only water cannon in the UK belong to the PSNI (N. Ireland), and they haven't been asked to loan them out...yet.

If the police can't contain the situation, the army will be the last resort. That worked out really well in N.Ireland 40 years ago...not

Still, there has to be tough, pro-active measures to prevent them congregating. There are no happy solutions to this.

[bodgit]

They wont be able to catch all of them, but I saw on the news one of them smashing a microwave he had looted from a shop . His prints are all over that and things like this should be used to round up all the thieving scum. Alot of evidence is lying there waiting to be collected.

[wezzer]

One of the problems is the youth of today (generally as I know this will not apply to all of them) have no respect for authority. The UK has gone soft and now we are seeing the results of this

The lack of respect started when they stopped you from slapping your own kids, or teachers from throwing the black board rubber at you if you were titting about.

Time was, if you came home crying, mum or dad would ask why, you'd say Mr Smith slapped me, why they'd ask, oh I kicked his bins over, then you got another slap, now, Mr Smith gets stabbed

Send 'em to Afganistan, see how they like it then.

Shoot 'em. Job done. Would you go looting/rioting if there was a possibility that you could be killed? i think not.

Use the Apache gun ships, if you can be filmed from the air.............

Plus it would give Prince Harry something to do

[SlowOne]

Oh dear, nothing like a little lawlessness to bring out the right wingers with all the answers! It's fun watching you all vent your spleens! I wish I was so certain about these things. Looking forward to more ravings of the keyboard jockeys, it brings a smile to my face in these uncertain times!!

[carpenterdean]

can't help but think that this kind of s**t would not be tolerated in china!!

[Fatal1ty]

They should get, what they deserve. Some massive big a$$ kicks, and more!

I hope the army or the police can stop this situation. I cant believe, that people in my age are doing sh!t like this...

Wish you all the best London!

Got the riots here in manchester now,probs seen on news by now,
talk about cut backs,cameron wants to cut the police force and the army,god help him.
got a funny feeling he will be out very soon,too many cuts to soon.

[MALLET]

Did anyone just see the prick on sky news just now masked up and say that he's only out to get some money and gear. Wankr.

[DCM]

Well, if I hear someone tell me one more time that this is happening cause of cutbacks, gonna vent!! This is organised violence to cover up massive theft and destruction, not rioting... Water cannons, rubber bullets, tear gas and horse charges would be good to watch!

[MALLET]

I've only put the news on to see the police getting stuck into the gangs, but the tv news crews are not covering it.

I just posted this over on the Manchester side of this thread. 2 press photographers got beaten by a group of 8 - 10 youths with bats and bars and had their 8 grands worth of camera gear stolen.

This has all been organised on twitter and facebook, there was something about an Argos that got raided and police clearing it up found something saying what to do if you got caught.

I can't believe how quickly this has escalated. The country needs to show a heavy handed no mercy approach now before it gets any worse. Control needs to be taken back !

[wreckers]
