In light of the amount of inaccurate information being spread on social networking sites we are asking members not to post unsubstantiated rumours of future riot locations unless backed up by a credible source. If a riot has broken out or a crowd has gathered please add either a link or a trusted news source (TV, Radio) from which you heard it.

We do not wish to cause people undue concern and worry. :)

I must admit, seeing two teenage girls drinking wine at 9am and saying how the arson and violence was "awesome", really makes me wish I could move to a remote island, heh.

Good call. If twitter was to be believed last night, nearly every shop in Bromley was set alight, and Primark blew up at least 7 times. Thankfully, while there was looting, I don't think any shop was actually set on fire.

How about an archipelago? i quite fancy doing same, but could we each have their own island? I want to limit my direct companionship to just beautiful women.

Once we agree..I'll start making my list :D

Just thinking after you posted ,would it be possible for Twitter and Face book to be shut down in the UK to stop the rioters from planning future riots

Can that be done? Is their identity on twitter and facebook purely UK driven?

Or would you need to stop individual accounts that are UK based?
