This is not the time nor the place for jokes especially ones which aren't even remotely funny. People out there have lost their homes, their livelihoods, I really don't think they are laughing at the moment.

I do not want to see any more jokes and stupid posts in this thread.

re: England Riots August 2011 (Was London Riots)

Phaps the Queen and her Possy may do some looting lol

Mick a lot of this wouldnt have happened if it wasnt for Cameron and his shameful lies.

A lot of this has been brewing since Cameron started his "We are all in this together" rubbish when he entered power and then decided to buy brand new Governmental Cars and Hire a Personal Photographer and now it was in the Media they have given the contract for IT for government to someone who is costing the Tax Payer Bettween 7 - 10 times more than what it was costing Labour and the conservatives were blasting labour when they came into power because they had apparently been hiring people for upto £1000 for IT when they didnt really have a role and some were paid to do nothing for weeks on end.

Cameron is a Joke.

You really think the louts that did the rioting even read the newspapers, much less know anything about Government IT contracts and the like? Get real, my man. The only joke around here is you.

re: England Riots August 2011 (Was London Riots)

They are part of a community that the Government is taking money away left right and centre and its hitting those who most need it and as soon as it erupts over one thing anyone and everyone will join in. It was reported on the news and online that people were heard stating that they were "Just getting their taxes back" who were part of the riot for example.

And chris atleast try not to be insulting seeing that its against ur own rules not allowed as u urself look like a joke much like the Conservative Government one rule for one and one rule for the rest of us.

Right. I can see how deprivation and lack of prospects may come into the reasons why people stoop to such behaviour, but to blame this on the current government which has only been in for slightly more than a year seems to me to completely miss the point. If anything, one should wonder why there still is such deprivation and discontent after 12 years of Labour rule.

re: England Riots August 2011 (Was London Riots)

Daniel i can understand cutbacks are needed but think of how these people see it. The Government are taking away Benefits from the Disabled and Sick and even a lot of Lords and MPs have stated the new rules are unfair YET they spend lavishly on new cars for themselves and claim £1000s on living expences.

This is the only things the general public are seeing and as for the "we are all in this together" Crap Cameron spouted was a lie from the start.

Because it's this government that are making such drastic and so many cuts. that's all these people see, experience and care about. they don't care who's to blame for what's lead up to this. all that matters to them is what's happening now.

Whst a load of rubbish.

Whatever political motivation there is behind these riots there is absolutely no justification whatsoever in people destroying other people's property in the manner in which they are doing. Any one who has a legitimate grievance against the government should use their power on polling day, as a legal means of telling the government that they do not agree with their mandate to govern.

It's nothing to do with people being annoyed. - It's pure evilness and lack of respect for other people. If people are naffed off with the government as you so suggest then why take it out on other people? Surely the target would be the government that the aggression is aimed at?
