Found this excerpt from a London eyewitness interesting....

High Street is a broken, twisted, boarded-off mess, eerily quiet. The electronics store Curry's has been utterly taken apart, as has Costa Coffee. Even the Boots chemist has been smashed in. Ironically, the only thing that hasn't been touched seems to be a bookstore, WH Smith's.

The sad twilight of the book. The rich don't want them because they have a Kindle. The hooligans don't want them because they don't read.
