How long would it take for the word to speard? I mean they can't all be networked. If we, the British, were fleeing somewhere how many of us would be able to contact each other to coodinate large scale meet ups so quickly?

I can't believe the same type of attacks across Europe happened organically. There has to be something we're missing.
That may not have been the original intention - a little booze, a whole lot of male frustration and a ready supply of vulnerable young women combined to cause the same problem in several places for the same reason. Not all of the males out that evening would have been involved in the theft and assaults but it's highly likely that a proportion would seek to take advantage of the situation in some way.

Like you I don't see what they'd have to gain by such behaviour but desperate people do desperate things which often aren't in their best interests.

It's quite clear that mobile communications are being used by migrants in Calais to co-ordinate their activities whether that be storming the fences or evading the authorities. I dare say they knew about our Sudanese tunnel walker's success before the Border Agency did.
