Possibly because the cops on the ground know that they won't be supported by their senior officers or political masters. They're damned if they do and damned if they don't.

I so wish they could go in and break some heads..

Good plan. That way there won't be any prints or DNA on the bat.

Re: Riots in Tottenham

The trouble is there are far too many dogooders, we should adopt the norwegian approach to prision over crowding, one out, one in.

Lock these people up, when the prisions allow it, no time off due to over crowding.

Re: Riots in Tottenham

I think this thread needs renaming to Riots in London as it isn't just Tottenham under attack. Peckham has just been attacked and i think my area is next according to reports

Re: Riots in Tottenham

Could this song be the beacon to what and where it is happening?

Quote:
Panic on the streets of London
Panic on the streets of Birmingham
I wonder to myself
Could life ever be sane again ?
The Leeds side-streets that you slip down
I wonder to myself
Hopes may rise on the Grasmere
But Honey Pie, you're not safe here
So you run down
To the safety of the town
But there's Panic on the streets of Carlisle
Dublin, Dundee, Humberside
I wonder to myself

I am not a softy lib who thinks we should only talk and slap there hands whilst wringing my own hands, I am a realist who see's what NEEDS to been done with the **** involved in this.

EDIT

There has just been a stupid woman on the news saying we should be asking the rioters why they are looting
No!The minute you put our troops on the streets to keep order is the day I leave this country.Only a fool would put fighting men into a civil disorder situation.Any government doing so would most certainly lose my respect and my vote.A standing army is for defence against enemies of the state not it's citizens.

Look at how the US National Guard got it so wrong in the University protests against the Vietnam war.
