Finally facade is being stripped away...You have to ask yourself what is it like growing up in the UK, with no prospect for jobs,a simmering angry that has gone on for decades..

Constant Police Harassment

VAT(20% sales tax) – on most goods and services has risen from 17.5 percent to 20 percent.

Many have been bracing for this, it was just a matter of time..

1. I would not be surprised to see something like that eventually happening here. There
are many people at their wits end. Eventually people just go over the edge and it's contagious. That doesn't mean it's right, it's just the ultimate frustration gets to them.

2. That's conservative policies for you.
The British will have to vote out the Conservative government and Americans vote out the Tea Party before things get better.

3. This was the most disgustingly racist interview
I have ever heard on the BBC. Some tramp accuses Darcus Howe of being a rioter and get away with it and there is no media outrage because it has all been hidden by the rest of the stories of riots.

This dumb tramp should lose her job.
