What what I read, it's not clear what caused them. Disturbance involvong people, care workers and children, with the decision made to remove the case workers and children because of the emerging disorder. All a bit vague and not a great look. I suspect the local people didn't like the idea of the State interfering in familial affairs? However, I also suspect given the 'community' of people that sadly there might have been a reason for the State to play it's hand in such a way, but this is just speculation. We may or may not get a clearer picture, but when you have hundreds of people on the street... burning public transport in my eyes seems to indicate that there were some hooligans around who saw an opportunity to stir the pot of chaos alongside what was already going on.

This is going to come to London very soon; not as in spread, I mean the commence of it's own riots. Why won't the BBC and Sky news report this? Forget a 2 minute 11 second clip from sky news briefly going over it and then ducking out to report about trump; what on earth is actually going on in this country? well I'll tell you what; if it was 10% of that crowd a bunch of football hooligans or nationalists just muckin about helicopters and n armoured police cars would've come out by now. It's funny how I have to watch mahyar tousi for this. I don't even care about politics anymore whether it's to do with that; this country needs more than that this country needs to seriously find God. If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under. Even if you don't believe in God and are secular or whatever the point is that we need to stand for the values and virtues that this country was built on. It makes my blood boil seeing these silly yutes who think they're on some kind of badness wave around phones video recording what's going on, laughing at the police. I'm lost for words.
