No child should see that, what are they doing putting kids in that situation, suppose she nipped out for some milk.

WTF

Photographers just picking off the vultures that breed this crap, very sad. Probably looking for a fix.

If people go out today know that worst that can happen is get charged at with a feel riot shields theres no deterrent, If this was america it would be over by now.

Attacking a BBC crew in the middle of a live broadcast, unbelievable.

There were defiantly a few of their faces visible, so hopefully they get arrested afterwards.

I hope that BBC reporter was made from the same stuff. I think he got a smack. : (

Sky have just pulled back too.

I think that reporter got knocked over just as it cut? Hope he's ok, but clearly not a place to be without protection. They'd steal the camera tbh.

He had balls, i'll tell you that, he asked "Why are blocking our camera" Quite directly. Brave.

They're extremely tough! At the student protests it took ages for people to smash through the windscreen!

If what happens over here (N.I.) is anything to go by, they won't.

Sounded like the bbc reporter took a smack. Thugs didn't want them filming their mindless violence

Police were totally unprepared as usual and had to quickly leave that car where it was :/

Now the French have a burka ban, I think the UK should have a hoodie ban, especially during the spring/summer!!

Why is a woman out with 2 very young children at that time of night?

/edit: Oh it's alright, there's a london olympics special on now. Firebombing as the new event anyone?

Maybe she lives in the houses by the riot area.

What's wrong with the time? I'd query the location (unless she lived there).

Nice "mk 28" on Tottenham would do the trick

Probably crisis management from the bbc crew being attacked.

How did we lose the capital to this scum?

By taking 1984 as an instruction manual?

Still - generally you'll find that the media is treated differently depending on which side of the police they're on.

Apparently the Met Police are now opening their 'Gold Command' or something, the centre is only opened during major public disorder or serious policing events.
