Is it just me who thinks of rioting as being a Northern thing?

We recycle in London, this shouldn't be happening here.

Just make sure the smashed glass is in the right bin.

Saw in Peckham they burnt a Greggs! A Greggs! What is wrong with these people? Really hope they haven't burnt our Greggs

The callous bastards are taking things too far now.

Hopefully Paddy McGuinness was inside.

Don't like it when they bring the police horses in. They'll just get stuff thrown at them. :(

Horses are surprising effective and typically wear protective gear. They're essential in the classic riot dispersal technique: keep pushing everyone back, back, back.

Cameron was going to cut the horses.

Don't want to sound alarmist, but if this carries on under the cover of darkness, residents will form vigilante mobs to defend property, then it's all out Dawn Of The Dead. Home made flamethrowers and the like.

Trying not to be paranoid but difficult in the midst of smoke and shouting. How does one go about making a homemade flamethrower? If it involves wasting my beer to ignite then I'm not interested. I have an orange t-shirt I could wave and hope people are fooled

There's nothing about this on Antiques Master! Why do I pay my license fee!
