Quote from: Alex I've heard the following are/may also be affected:
Woolwich
Eltham
Bexleyheath
Welling
I've got a friend in the Bexley/Falconwood area and she says things are OK there at the moment… although I note that the DLR's closed down to Woolwich by police request so perhaps trouble's brewing but it's not quite become noticeable yet.
I was (to a certain extent) glad to see the riots move away from Enfield today (as that's where I live!), but then I saw the photographs of yet more buildings set on fire, particularly badly in Croydon. Such a wonderful city, reduced to this thievery and anarchy.

What about the girl who was 'getting her taxes back'. I bet she's never paid tax in her life

Young injured lad seemed to be being helped by looters when, as he was distracted, someone stole contents of his rucksack and sauntered off tossing some stuff away.

Quote from: artmo Tonight they will have 16000.
I wonder where they will get these number from.
What's wrong with using the Army? Surely this IS a case where utilising the armed forces could easily be justified to protect the lives and property of British Citizens.
At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.
Opinions expressed in forum posts are those of the poster, others may have different views.

Quote What's wrong with using the Army?
They're obviously too busy.
I completely agree, i dont understand why they havent drafted in the army, you certainly wouldnt have so much confrontation with the army (tried arguing with a guy with an assault rifle across his chest?)
Im starting to lose patience with the authority tbh, im suprised no one has taken matters into their own hands to be honest. (albeit probably in vain and at their own cost)
Move them on, if they dont go - shoot. simple.
Regards

Also they could swell the numbers vastly past 16,000, with the army.

Quote Do we have soldiers available in this country
That is probably a good point

Not even got these boys anymore



Regards
edit: perhaps its about time they imposed a curfew, and took anyone home who is still on the streets after this time.
