Why is nobody involved in this bright enough to realise the irrepairable damage they are doing to themselves?

Just shows the level of idiocy these people are at...

Unbelievable, this needs to be stamped on NOW and quickly.

Agreed. Don't know what they can do other than bringing in some big re-enforcements - martial law a slippery downhill path.

It's just devastating - and awful. Can't believe this is 2011 in a modern city. It's tragic.

Just declare a curfew, otherwise this night is going to be a nightmare for the police.

Police look like they have some serious numbers in Hackney now, but the Chopper doesn't seem to be showing it.

How come the police had more balls during the poll tax riots ?

Curfew wont do much. Poilce need to stop sitting back and actually do something. This would have been all done by yesterday or Maybe today if they actaully Stomped out the problem and did something.

Pointless policing there, charing in riot geat down a street, theyll never catch up to them before they move away,

They will just move onto the next street,

I'm nearly in tears for this decent guy on Sky News atm.

I am ******* seething.

Raymond Lin · 8 Aug 2011 at 19:51

Bunch of idiots, ****ing at your own neighbourhood, wrecking it...it's your own neighbourhood!

It's got to be time for water cannon surely.

I was thinking exactly the same

Now they've stopped running again :rolleyes:

I think a curfew is going to become necessary tonight, just arrest anyone on the street after 9pm, although I've got no idea where you would hold them...

explicit4u · 8 Aug 2011 at 19:52

apparently that's being handed out

Why would it, would you want to go to the carnival after all this, I bet a lot of people in London wont want it going ahead, doubt the police could enforce it with all the work they are having to do now, treat them like kids "you have been naughty, so no fun for you"

IT's not as if people need any more "excuses" for violence - I'm just stating that that would just perpetuate further trouble...

I've been to the carnival before, but I have no interest in it really.

Some South London residents are apparently claiming that the mobile phone network is down???

Nexus · 8 Aug 2011 at 19:53

If that Philipa on BBC calls them 'Protestors' one more time!!!!!
