    Listening to LBC.  Not sure the Brixton one is anymore than rumour but the Walthamstow one is sounded real as a shopkeeper called up saying it was going off and no police around to help it.

    Im in suburban sunny Becekenham and theres been police cars flying about all night heading into town so wont be suprised if it kicks off south of the river either.

    It seems that there is a pre-arranged meet at Edmonton Green Shopping Centre at midnight....... still no sign of Police apparantly. Also now reports of masked gangs in Oxford Street.

    Better not be Palmers Green - my brother in law lives there and, being Sicilian, any little f***wit with a hoodie comes through his front door they're going to regret it!

    listening to LBC news and listening to a driver who got diverted off the A10 and states about sky being red and a dreams superstore in Cabinet way in E4 alight

    LBC is on the money.  Someone calling in saying the Dreams bed store in Highams Park is up in flames.

    That's just regular East London foolishness. You could raze that gaff to the ground overnight from the IOD to Epping Forest and no-one would notice the difference

    Just heard a woman on BBC London radio say that all this trouble goes back to slavery.

    So there you have it folks, because of slavery some little scroat (white or black) thinks it's ok to go and nick a telly, grab some trainers and burn down someones home/business. C***S.

    It's further back than that mate. As far as I understand it, it all stems from when pelycosaurs first evolved into therapsids.

    I think you will find it is God's fault, for not making us perfect, or maybe Eve's fault for eating the forbidden fruit, or Hitlers fault for not conquering us and turning us into blond hair blue eyed Nazi's, or the Met Police's fault for not heeding the warnings, or my fault for not bothering to put my recycling bin out last week.

    Truth is, all of this is happening because the people rioting and looting are all utter, utter scumbag-tosspot-arsewips.

    Royal Mail van just been hijacked in Edmonton - all windows being smashed and they are trying to set fire to it. It would have been safe a few years ago as their giros would have been in it.
