    Just heard on the radio that 8 of Scotland's police forces are prepared to send officers down to help with the riots.

    Fantastic idea. And whilst they're all down there, Scotland will be completely wide open to anyone wanting to riot here. *' idiots. :38:

    Manchesters Riot police are not to be messed with ..I have a mate that works for the GMP and they certainly dont take prisoners when it comes to this scenario ..

    It's good to see at least they try and do something about it instead of standing and watching them do what they want to do.

    One man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. It continues to be a complicated investigation to get to the full truth of what's gone on. We are concerned that it does not lead to more disturbance and violence amongst communities.

    This is to do with the hit and run :50:looks like they have some one so far.

    Yes that one day in jail though will now surely mean he has no job to go to and also his movement around the world will be severely curtailed due to him having a criminal record

    I dont recall the BBC using words like "criminality" & "looting" when they reported on the bankers or the expenses. *

    Racial Tension

    Understandably I’m now getting a lot of reports of racial tension connected to the deaths of the Pakistani guys last night on Dudley Rd. Every kind of report you can possibly imagine in my Tumblr inbox, but the common theme is that the Asian community are incensed and want revenge and that there’s a strong possibility of gangs coming to Birmingham from other cities like Leicester and Manchester in response to the deaths last night.

    I’m fearful because this racial tension isn’t new - but this has undoubtedly exacerbated it. Some of you might remember the riots we had in Handsworth and Lozells a few years ago, where it was alleged that Asian guys had attacked a young black girl after she was caught shoplifting. It kicked off and there were deaths then too. As it turned out, when everything calmed down, the original story appeared to be nothing more than a rumor and nobody seemed quite sure that it had happened.

    Makes grim reading :54:

    Looks like a scene from the previous 4 nights of destruction. However this is de javu on when Rangers FC last decided to travel away in numbers. There are a lot of comparisons to draw...........
