I live no where near London, thankfully, but I do find the spreading of this thuggery and vermin, rather scary to be honest.
I guess that's what you get when you hand out "ASBO"'s rather than punish repeat offenders.
What I don't understand is why the police are just standing around with riot shields/armour, when thugs/hoodies are throwing bricks, smashing windows and knocking vans etc over?
What kinda country is this when people are allowed to do this thing? good lord.
From the BBC's twitter:
Quote:
1839: Vicki Young Political correspondent, BBC News
Senior Tory MP David Davis calls on the police to stop treating the disorder on the streets as a peaceful demonstration and intervene more quickly to stop rioting and acts of criminality. Speaking on BBC Look North, Mr Davis says the police had been "standing by, presumably under orders," and watching criminal acts happen.
