Have a read of that. People eating in a restaurant when looters smashed in the window and robbed people.
Good luck to you and all your colleagues.![]()
Ok readers, a moment on why they feel justified for their actions.
Lets look at the society, Overpaid footballers, celebrities, bankers bonuses, and massive amounts of money on the lottery given out.
The gap is to wide for the have and have not for the reasons I have mentioned.
We see via the media this exploitation, thrown in your face so people are saying I want this life style.
Fair wage for what you are skilled up to do. A premier footballer should not be paid silly amounts of money, for example money should be distributed more evenly for work done.
Their should not even be any billionaires because money is distributed fairly.
thanks to our previous and current Government, all of our Armed Forces are being utilised to police the rest of the world and not our own country. I would send these idiotic thugs to Afghanistan if they want mindless violence and see how tough they are then.
What we see on the news is a result of envy and jealousy, the desire for honest work is not in theses criminals.
We're doing reassurance patrols to discourage would-be rioters and I doubt we'll see any disorder, but Hampshire is a world away from London at the moment. My concern is for the Met and all the officers from other forces on mutual aid who are doing 20+ hour shifts during the night in some very difficult circumstances.
WHY CAN'T THE POLICE USE TEAR GAS for **** sake.
Again what was he doing in that place??? Walk the other way.
I see no fit girl
can we get that re hosted? work filter grrr

Will and I were going to celebrate with a night out at 2 Michelin star restaurant The Ledbury. I had come to terms with the fact that it would be an expensive dinner, but boy, I had no idea how expensive.
Around the fourth dish of the tasting course, there were loud bangs outside. The restaurant staff was yelling at us to get away from the windows. Before I knew it, the front door, a solid piece of glass shattered and people came crashing in with hoodies, masks, and random weapons.
The looters were yelling at us to get down and throwing stuff all over the place. I got down and started taking off my wedding and engagement ring to hide somewhere, but unfortunately wasn’t fast enough. One looter came up and demanded my phone. I didn’t have it with me since it was in my purse and it was out of arm reach. I also didn’t want to lead him to my passport, so I said I didn’t have one.
He told me to take off my rings and grabbed my hand, trying to yank them off. His friend tried to help too, but the rings wouldn’t come off and I just yelled at him that I’d take them off myself. In hindsight, now that I know that gun control is so fierce in England and he only had bat, I should have held on to my rings better and maybe slugged him in the face.
The kitchen staff at the Ledbury went beyond their call of duty by rushing up from the kitchen with rolling pins, fry baskets, and other dangerous kitchen tools and scared off the looters. Then they provided well-needed glasses of alcohol including champagne and whisky. When word came that the looters were coming back a second time, they ushered us into the bathrooms and told us to lock the doors. A few minutes later, they led us into the wine cellar and told us to lock ourselves in there.
Well, that was certainly a memorable dining experience. I was kind of hoping to finish the rest of my tasting menu, but all the broken glass, turned over tables, probably wasn’t conducive to a nice dining environment. I was sad for the wonderful smelling cheese cart that had glass littered all over it. So much cheese gone to waste!
Guy who took my ring, I hope you put it to good use and don’t just dump it in the street. Also, I hope you get a case of flaming diarrhea for the rest of your life. Ledbury staff, thanks for keeping things under control and giving me some petit fours to munch on.
