What's up with London? (riots, merged)

[Oberon]

At least the BBC are actually reporting on it tonight, for once.

Well, here is how it is going to be. The gap between the rich and poor widens and this is what happens. It's not pretty, and it's got nothing to do with race, nothing at all. What it is to do with is the Haves and the Have nots, and the lack of regard for society, which in their eyes, has continually defecated on them.

So, Dave, here's your Big Society. Hope you like it.

Latest police advice is for people to stay off the streets unless they have business to...so...basically...a self-imposed curfew.

The tea boy stepped in and gave his speech.

As for that dipstick Cameron he is in bed with the EU, result no action.

I can't help feeling that Boris Johnstone should have been on a flight back from his holidays on Sunday morning instead of waiting until today.

However, Here is the response of Lee Jasper, Ken Livingstone's Director for Policing and Equalities when Red Ken was Mayor:

Last night during the uprising in Tottenham, we dispatched a legal team offering legal advice and representation to all those who were arrested.

There will be community meetings this week to discuss the events of last night and how best to respond, in which we will be involved: details will be announced as soon as possible.

Thursday evening there will be a meeting called 'Recession, Riot and Resistance' - venue and time to be announced, but in the meantime please put the date in your diaries and keep Thursday evening free.

Please continue to promote the March 4 Justice 4 Demetre Fraser to be held next Saturday 13th August. Thanks to all those raising awareness at carnivals and events this weekend.

So, one of the main guys in Livingstone's Mayoral team, a man who will probably be back on Ken's ticket at the next London elections, thinks that the correct response to all this is to help the rioters deal with the police. Hmmm.......Nevermind those who have lost their homes and livelihoods. Also note the use of the word 'Uprising'.

I actually don't know what I expected from someone connected with Ken Livingstone.
