I said in my post that it was not an Australia v UK thing. The fact that you want to make it so is your indaba not mine. Do what you gotta do.
I will just add that this shit is happening right now in the UK and not Australia. |

Not rocket science.
Poverty and hopelessness. Nothing new there. How many riots do you get among the middle class, no matter what else is going on with their lives? |

Your post insinuated that it is a UK problem, bottom line is that it isn't. It happens elsewhere.
Don't try and use 'elsewhere' as a smoke screen for what is happening in London. |

Can you still get Portmeirion china? How revolting! :D Actually I was thinking of the uni students pissing on the Cenotaph, swinging from the Union Flag, smashing up Maccas, the window of the car holding Charles and Camilla etc but never mind. ;)
Oh you can. Middle class England couldn't get by without it. But yes, I know what you mean. Rockstar children swinging from the flag aren't a proper riot, but at least those riots were about something, despite the hangers on that were just in it for the riot alone. These riots just seem to be down to a total disconnect from the very idea of society. It's taken us some time to grow this lot, they can't be the product of any recent changes alone. |
