Announce there is going to be an enquiry. One that'll probably cost the tax payer tens of millions of £'s. Money that could be spent on the causes of this problem.....
Probably a few million tops which truth be told wouldn't make a dent in those problems, one off payment of less than £1 for all the unemployed basically. They basically need to redevelop the places to bring in business and jobs and I'd say that nobody in their right mind would do that after this.

just heard loads of noise coming from outside my flat door and thought we'd got burglars or soemthing and it turns out it was the guy next door who'd locked himself out
he ended having to kick his door in which seems like the most action bristol's getting tonight thankfully

got trapped in work tonight
police were thinly stretched, saw kids walking round with guitars they'd robbed lol
I don't want to see the result of them meeting anyone. The police aren't quite sure what to do with them, are they?
The police aren't sure what to do about any of this, are they?
Oh dear.
nope, seems it all took them by surprise a bit!
in a way i think everyone else should have had the balls to do like that enfield lot or the green lanes lot the other day, would probably end badly i guess....but if everyone grew a pair and told looters to fuck off im sure they'd outnumber them 100:1, they'd soon stop

watching the shit unfold in manchester, the police (at least here anyway) know exactly what they're doing
there's still 'civilians' on the streets, i was one of them, there was a wedding party leaving the restaurant i worked in, should the police have gassed them??
they're doing the best thing
whats lost up here?? not much
london is different, but the rioting in london was over such a massive scale, attempting to control it with a few tear gas canisters is a jokes idea

Mass unemployment, public sector strikes, rioting, and a fucking Conservative government!
At least there aren't any New Romantics roaming the streets
I assumed emo hipsters were this generation's version.
