So your a foreigner? Even less need for you to comment on UK issues.

Well, I shan't be arguing this evening sorry about that. I corrected you, it's up to you how you deal with that.

Its funny because its just like reverse media speak when it comes to Scotland...

In sports when a Scottish athlete wins he is British, if he loses he is Scottish...

In public disorder if it happens in England it is British and I can bet you if it happened in Scotland it would be labelled Scottish.

The difference is that Scottish people would not put up with it regardless of what the police do or do not so unfortunately we will not find out if what I said is correct.

I am Scottish born, bred and living in Scotland (after reading ridiculous criticism of another member on this topic)

All this aside however, my guts telling me that this is not as clear cut as the media is potraying it to be.

2212: Chris Buckler BBC News People are following us around with bags, asking where the riots are. There is no doubt that there is a great deal of opportunism going on here tonight in Manchester.

Wow really? The same people who were clutching their pearls a day or 2 ago are now ready to get dirty? This isn't going to end anytime soon.
