re: England Riots August 2011 (Was London Riots)

As the riots are not restricted to Tottenham I've altered the title to "London Riots" though as there's now unrest in Birmingham that might again change

oh give up please ,the situation has escalated from a local bunch of idiots that could and should have been dealt with by the local police force into one that demands the pm's personal attention and he has cut short his holiday to deal with it so what's wrong with that ?

Well he can't send in the police, and he can't send in the army.

Hmm! So it's not okay for Syria and Libyan leaders to use troops to shoot their citizens but it is OK for us to do it?

Do you really want our troops to be used like they were in NI? Especially as they have already got enough fighting to do in Afghanistan without being deployed here.

well Maggie they clearly don't respect the rule of law so maybe they will respect a few SA80's pointed at them i for one will not worry one little bit if a few of these **** bags are removed from the gene pool.Maybe this is the turning point when we finally realise that treating these type of people with kid gloves does not work and the heavy approach is needed
