Riot tactics don't seem to be working very well against looters. I am all for breaking out the MP5s. The city is basically under attack, it needs to be defended with all necessary force.

The FIM's will do all they can not to deploy armed officers to deal with the riots, you can not run the risk of an officer having his weapon taken from him.

Wonder what the rioters over there would do with a few dozen of these rolling at them:

Was walking up North Queen St. the other day and one of 'em swung around, up over the footpath, and away like the hammers of hell in the other direction.


I must have scared them.
 
LOL at the guy on bbc, talking about he would have noticed if people were running about with 3 piece suites on their heads looting.
 
Not much happening in Bromley (A few riot vans and some fire tenders zooming around) / South East London in general.
The rioters didn't spread out much from Lewisham, I don't think Catford or the surrounding area was effected either.

Lots of little scallywags hanging around with masks on, pretending to be part of it, but obviously not.

I'm off to bed now!

I've got so much admiration and sympathy for the Police. They're undermanned and also have their hands tied from doing their job.

Their restraint is commendable under the circumstances.

I have a few police friends on the street atm and they have their hands tied. They would love to get one of the rioters or looters and give them a good battering but they are not allowed to.

There are so many cameras that if one cop steps out of line, they would be crucified so in the cops best interest, its better to do nothing and sit back than end up on the wrong side of the law.
