Riots in Tottenham, London! (NO RACIST COMMENTS)

[LeJosh]

Peoples lives are more important than possessions.

 

[Tefal]

seriously, where is the fire brigade!?!

not wanting to get their heads kicked in?

 

[iamtheoneneo]

What are the army going to do? Shoot people in droves?

While troops can be public order trained, they are no substitute for trained PSU cops.

People need to undertstand that every street and property can't be protected and that is with the army on the streets or not.

if it comes to that yes but im sure these thugs will behave differently when they see troops onthe streets of london

 

[Gypo]

It isn't a Benny Hill show.

You don't just wander aimlessly waving sticks about chasing looters. It is often slow and methodical take back of the streets and take them back they will.

Coming down?

Dude. we got chavs running round tourching peoples cars and homes. blast them with a water cannon or use rubber bullets. there are very, very few people that support this kind of behaviour.

 

[semi-pro waster]

Just looking at the shot of Croydon on BBC News.

Holy **** .

I can't quite work out where that is. Is it the place at the end of church street by the end of the church?

Just wow....

I don't know Croydon all that well but they mentioned London Road and the Lidl that's down that way but it looks like it's much wider spread.

That multiple house fire in croydon is seriously concerning. Looks like the paint on the houses across the street is melting and will also probably light up

already happening.... house across the road now also catching fire...

What's going on here,just sitting in front of the telly,and I'm speechless.

 

[Gackt]

hah no i live further away now, used to live in rainham and hempstead

Lucky sod, you got out! For the love of god, and for your soul, don't come back!

 

[Richie]

It's an odd time when I feel safe living in the East End of Glasgow! Hope everyone is safe. I'm watching Russia Today, hoping they show some Russian-style justice.

East end? I didnt think you were anywhere near the East end of Glasgow

 

[speeduk]

not wanting to get their heads kicked in?

Just turned up. Bit late.

 

[Joshy]

I'm going to be honest. The seriousness of this didn't hit home until I'm sat here watching a building I've past a million times completely engulfed with flames.

Just wow. Really.

 

[Biohazard]

BBC yeah.

They're just circling the croydon furniture store and speaking to the public but she's getting wound up herself.

Edit - was she strife? My bad.

Edit 2 - fire has spread to other buildings!

Who?

 

[Strife212]

holy **** the croydon fire has crossed the street, homes on fire now.

 

[Efour]

Get HMS belfast up and running! like gangs of new york! 15mile range guns should be able to hit all the areas

No, fire fighting, like when the fire brigade went on strike. Because I can't see a single fire engine in these tv pictures. That would be a start.

 

[LeJosh]

Fire brigade at croydon have turned up.

 

[fozzybear]

Cameron on his way back to save the day apparently.

Won't be enough to save his ass though.

 

[101001101]

Fire brigade arrived gonna take a lot to put that out

 

[LeJosh]

Who?

The BBC female reporter, I think she was just reciting a script though.
