I feel for you folks out there who have had their towns destroyed by ignorant fools.

If you want to riot against elite rule, do so on their property and in their faces

do not destroy your own community

anyone who does so is a traitor to their own people and should be shot dead in the streets

stay safe, brits

We are watching area just east of Tower Bridge, contacts there can hear it going on right now. The poor old dears (white students from the counties) are scared to go out ! There are break-ins to homes going on - thats not good. I hope they all quickly work out that having a go at politicians is much more fun...
