London rioting and looting, Aug 2011

[spitfire]

The posh cunt should shut the fuck up, shame she wasn't torched.

I'm not going to get into a pointless row with you pal, especially over someone i don't know or particularly care about. I just thought pulling her up about calling them names after her shop's been trashed is a bit rich.

Sirens everywhere but no reports of major disturbances?

 

[Belushi]

I read on facebook that 40 or so people gathered in Deptford for an informal 'We love Deptford High Street' meeting tonight.

I went to a mass meditation in Trafalgar Square to counterbalance the riots earlier

Oh good. Thank goodness we all got permission from the anarchos to give looters a beating.

you're such a fucking twerp

 

[oryx]

Just driven all the way through S London via the South Circular and it is as quiet as the grave - like New Year's or Christmas Day.

Didn't go as far as Eltham, though.

Your mate?

 

[IC3D]

Your mate?

Its an odd one true but someone I call a mate and not a bad bloke in the way your thinking.

I just thought it was hilarious that anarchist spokespeople are still deluded enough to believe that anyone gives a fuck about their position.

You know what I am thinking? Amazing.

With friends who find 'fun' in very weird places.

Isn't pretty much nothing happening tonight, and it's just the media and people on the internet masturbating together?

Millwall was canceled so they went looking for the looters responsible, not my cup of tea though.

they seem to be getting a lot of support for what they have been doing

Manchester didn't seem like nothing, but sure, London is much quieter.

No. Manchester went off, but it was much earlier, same as B'ham. Difference is today it's been much earlier.

Done already today and months ago and years ago probably

I was out at the time, but reports make it look far less than anything previously. Page 4 stuff in other circumstances.

From a local PCSO on twitter. Yes, a PCSO. Is he stupid?

'Simon Hughes, on BBC London radio, has just said words to the effect that “there are people on the streets now making “class-based arguments” - and that these people need to be “taken out” (!) as they are doing “the most damage”.'

who does he mean?

Well, 'taken out' traditionally means 'killed' ... In this case apparently for pointing out the role of neo-liberal capitalism in creating an irredeemably alienated violent underclass. Something that they'd prefer people not to think about for obvious reasons.

Bit of a severe reaction to cognitive dissonance I'd have thought, but I'm not a liberal MP.

Followed by:

Good stuff PCSO Banks, let anyone looking for trouble know where to head for.

Video of the football lot having a fun time in Enfield. They were not EDl even though the Edl would love to have hijacked it. They were not hunting blacks either as the video shows. If I was from round there I would have gone on it, too.
