No, the ones sent to sort the cretins out. Colleagues been called up and told pack a bag - expect to be gone a few days. I am sorting my kit as we speak, ready to go.

Liverpool isn't a riot, more like a few cars and bins been on fire.

Tesco Metro looted in the city centre although it only sells crisps and frozen pizza so that can't have been much of a haul.

Loads of Police everywhere, looked to have it all under control. Certainly feel better than when I was reading people making it up on Twitter.

Dress up in a hoody and trackies and blend in. Then give each 1 a clip 1 by 1.

Good luck though.

David Cameron "I am granting the Metropolitan Police emergency powers to use water cannons, rubber bullets and tear gas to take back control of our streets. In addition I am deploying the British Army as a visible presence to provide the authority that is so very lacking."

....Carlsberg don't do Prime Minister's press releases, but if they did...

You know what I don't get, our country is quick to jump in every other countries business when shit's going down; but when it's here, it seems nothing is getting done.

Where the fuck is the Army?

I was watching it all night at work. Was a Sony distribution place that set alight, guy who worked over the road gave his story about what happened earlier.
Worst thing I've seen so far is a woman saying that rioters battered her door and when she came she had hold of her baby daughter... And they took the baby off her!!

All cells in London full, FTSE 100 below 5000 points for first time in 14 months, London stock market down 3.5% in early trading and Swagger Jagger is number one.

These are bleak times we live in.

Kicked off in a lot more places than that, media not showing full picture as always.
