No! No one else was in the house!! It was like solitary confinement. No electricity, No lights. Just a small dark room when the sun went down.

Birmingham is choc full of Asians of middle eastern origin. I cant really say its racial tension but it could be although 3/4 of the folk rioting in Tottenham where Afro minorities.

Im glad our neds and yobs in Glasgow are civilized we only fight the other side we refrain from attacking innocents.

You could have left the house and stocked up for the winter Freedom :D

Some Irish guy on the phone to the news was like "AW THESE GUYS JUST EFFECT THE DECENT PEOPLE LIKE ALWAYS". I think the Conservative government will have an absolute field day with these riots. Every time the Conservatives are in power some bad shit always goes down.

Seeing the news looks like they recycled their middle east footage

Glad I don't live in a place like that, I live in just about the calmest place there is, only thing we want down here is a subway for cheap sandwiches, and no ones gonna riot about that.

I laughed at LBC radio last night when they tried to blame the riots and looting on the kids becoming something called 'de-franchised' or whatever....

Kids with no future that watch big earners like footballers and singers (gangstah rappahs) and other famous stars roll around in bentlys and splash millions out on just 1 bottle of champaign. Have finally broke and decided that they also wanted a peice of the same cake so they riot and loot to make a statement.

And Tottenham's Mark Dugan 'peaceful' protest was the best place to kick start things.

I dont think these kids are 'de-franchised' Nor do i think they have a statement to make to the entire world other then showing the rest of the world what a bunch of idiots they are.

People have lost their homes and livelyhoods, and all for what??

So they can parade around in their gangs and get given 'respect' by their homies because they were one of the people who attacked the BBC news crew who were reporting on the goings on in Tottenham or because he is the guy that setfire to and blew up the bus.

If they think such actions make them more of a man then they are greatly mistaken. And since it is the way these kids think nower days. The world has just got a little darker.

Labour jelly, but could not take defeat like a man.

Labour are just as bad as the other 2, they became complacent when in government. I dont like SNP government in Scotland but in some ways its almost a blessing as it forces Labour to get their act together.

Although i think dosey Ed isnt up to the job honestly i don't think we have had a great government since Labour after the Second World War. Conservative privatisation was needed in small doses in the 80s but they went about it the wrong way and ended up crippling the left overs we had of an economy. Everything leeches off of the public sector there is no growth in this country. Secondary leeches who take money from public sector workers like the service industry. We need to export something be that a physical product or a service. I thought the whole idea of a European Union was to allow national exports without barriers throughout Europe?

I heard the USA had recently downgraded its credit rating so i think this will have a world wide effect. Im actually certain im worse of more than when there was a so called recession. For years and years countries have lived off credit, it was only a matter of time before the world markets crashed.

I could talk politics all day but i ramble. The riots are fuck all to do with politics though as i think even the most dim witted person can see that.

Police should be free to use rubber bullets, tasers, baseball bats and water cannons. The moment those thugs started destroying properties and put lives in danger they revoke their human rights. You do cannot have human rights if you disregard them in the first place.

Never... i dont want this country to become a quasi police state. They need to call in neighbouring forces to get the job done. Dont know if you know but the police in the UK is split into different forces like the West of Scotland is one massive Strathclyde Police. Aberdeen is taken into Grampian Police.

Sorry to double post but yes i agree i think police should in this case be allowed to use tasers and water cannons. Its a humane form of protection. Police need a way to cuff these rapscallions and water isnt going to damage a person is it?

To far i think, take a look its already spread to the Birmingham time to crack down. If only the police where so concerning about knife and gang culture in the first place.

Exactly, but at the end of the day the army could use rubber bullets, and if they didn't tell people they were using them, they wouldn't have a problem, your not gonna mess with someone you think has a loaded weapon
