luckily I already have various improvised pointy sticks and the like in my house
[QUOTE=geogzm;31614438]I'll use a cricket bat. I'm not planning on making any actual contact unless necessary. I may head down the road and wave it around at rioters. This is fucking sickening[/QUOTE] Why would you threaten people that's just foolish, why not just stay inside and hope for the best.
Found this on facebook, someone who works for currys got arrested for looting currys while wearing her currys uniform. [img]https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/284466_248810311807118_248810008473815_902199_5901219_n.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=markg06;31614478]Why would you threaten people that's just foolish, why not just stay inside and hope for the best.[/QUOTE] They aren't breaking into houses anyway. Just burning them.
Apparently Cameron is cutting his holiday short for the recent events. What I'm wondering is where the fuck is Clegg then?
Theres a guy on the line now who's apartment got attacked. Sounds like broken windows only. They threw a bottle of rum through his window.

Someone the BBC is interviewing just said that someone lobbed a bottle of rum through their window while they were watching it on TV. They are debating if it was being drunk or used for setting shit on fire. Ninja'd
[QUOTE=Sastion;31614241]I'm flying to Edinburgh tomorrow morning, it best not kick off there.[/QUOTE] the fringe festival is on. everyone will be passed out drunk
[QUOTE=RainbowStalin;31614509]Theres a guy on the line now who's apartment got attacked. Sounds like broken windows only. They threw a bottle of rum through his window.[/QUOTE] I hope it was full, rum is tasty.

[QUOTE=LewyJudge12;31614490]Several FPers including me can confirm this.[/QUOTE] I'm in Ormskirk, so unless they want to come and burn some farm equipment we'll be alright out here :P Fucking mental how its "spreading".
[QUOTE=Benf199105;31614455][url]http://twitter.com/#!/benschofield[/url] Apparently Toxteth in Liverpool is starting up....[/QUOTE] That's his car burning right there outside his house.. who does something like that. That would make me so angry.
[QUOTE=Nightsure;31614503]Apparently Cameron is cutting his holiday short for the recent events. What I'm wondering is where the fuck is Clegg then?[/QUOTE] He's been here the whole time
[QUOTE=Mabus;31614534]I hope it was full, rum is tasty.[/QUOTE] Enjoy a rum and coke while you watch london burn. For the looter with class. Clegg could try and stop the riots and make the looters break down in laughter.
[QUOTE=Mabus;31614534]I hope it was full, rum is tasty.[/QUOTE] Apparently it was empty, shame for them.
[QUOTE=Jsm;31614557]Apparently it was empty, shame for them.[/QUOTE] Now the looters have crossed the line. Shoot the bastards.

[QUOTE=smurfy;31614549]He's been here the whole time[/QUOTE] Oh so that's why a load of sensible stuff was announced in the last few days. Cameron is going to be pissed when he finds out that Clegg was messing with the country while he was entrusted with it for a few days.
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXcI-NL3Tro[/url] if this hasn't already been posted holy shit I didn't think it was that bad.

Cameron is going to be pissed when he finds out that Clegg was messing with the country while he was entrusted with it for a few days.[/QUOTE] The other way of seeing it is that clegg was in charge for a few days, and this happened. Of course it's unrelated, but still. I bet someone will make that argument.
They burnt down a unused police station in Birmingham.
West Midlands Police confirm that a police station in Holyhead Road in Handsworth, Birmingham, is on fire. Fucking hell
There's a chopper flying around near my house. I really hope this isn't a bad sign.

"B-b-bu..." "No buts! You're staying in your room for the next two weeks Clegg!"
Snip, bad joke
