I doubt it but you never know, these riots have been coming for years, anyone with half a brain could see it coming who has lived there recently. Just hope it all comes to an end soon before it gets out of hand. ..............waits for the inevitable onslaught :sneaky: |

Re: London Riots
apparently it's all because "they" closed all the youth clubs to save money. Vox Pop video shot in Haringey last week, before it all kicked off: the last guy pretty much sums it all up...

Re: London Riots
I'd say Cameron's Big Society looks pretty small tonight. Mindless, stupid, pathetic violence - yes - but this has been brewing for many months now. Anti-working class and anti-youth policies as well as other Govt initiatives have exposed and even widened divisions in Britain's society and created, in only one year, a generation of angry, disenfranchised young people with fewer opportunities than before May 2010. In Waltham Forest before the election last year there were 1 in 4 'neets' (not in education, employment or training). In one year that figure had dropped 1 in 3 - says much, really.
I'm sure people will argue with me on this point, so go ahead. I'm not condoning the violence but I lay the blame firmly at the door of Britain's unelected government. To use a Canadian expression, what a ****ing gong-show. |

As if you didn't know any of this before you came here, the internet will tell you any of this well in advance, I'm pretty sure it hasn't changed in the time since you came here, always makes me laugh when Brits complain of how bad Canada is, go back if you don't like it, why hang around here and complain about it |
