How mny more "rivers of blood" must this country suffer under multi-cultural disfunction.
Both Enock Powell & Nick Griffin prophetised what happend, one was disowned by the tories, the other was threatened with prison.
The latter also for-warned about 7/7 too.
Do we the people have to take the law into our own hands? Or will the politicians admit they have got it very wrong.

Ahhh a 'Vibrant, Diverse, multi-cultural society!'.

Enjoy! - i'm out of here!.

Another Tory government, another inner-city London riot. Plus ca change...

We see this kind of thing all the time on the streets of Northern Ireland. Its nothing new when periodically communities turn in on themselves and trash the place. But we haven't seen water cannons or rubber bullets yet, when the authorities try and establish order ack on the streets again.
Of couse it is the communities and the moderate good law abiding residents that suffer most and are left to pick up the tabs.
The same issues about policing, jobs, and community cohesion, crop up all the time and they are the no different to 10 years or 20 years or 30 years ago whether its Bristol or Brixton or Belfast.
In the end its up to the communities to solve their own problems with disaffected fatherless violent youth with no good role models and an endemic culture of violence of their fathers and a lack of a work incentive and any positive future.
This years Tottenham Riots are no different, and the subsequent Enquiries will establish that fact.

So, it was all "totally unacceptable" was it Nick? It is only what you predicted Nick. On 16 March 2010 you said:

"In a democracy, dramatic change cannot be imposed from above or it will fail.
It has to be led by a process of political engagement.
You only have to look at the scale of industrial unrest in Greece to see that it is
impossible to reduce a public deficit quickly if you do not find a way to persuade
people to go along with the process."

I don't think these rioters were persuaded that it was a good idea for the council to shut most of their youth clubs, driving them onto the streets where they were harrassed by the police. See Guardian video report 31 July 2011.

The council will now have to pay towards the cleanup. Have they really saved money? It will cost them even more. False economy from a false government.

Another riot, another ethnic minority centred riot, still more apolgies from the liberals for our multi-cultural society...
Just a thought... a landmark store which defied another alien attack from without (the blitz) finally falls to an alien attack from within !

And again today, footage of yet more looting in Hackney...I'm sorry but the Afro-carabean community has to accept its share of responsibility...12-13 year old boys out in the streets armed with baseball bats or iron bars...clearly either the parents have completely abdicated all notion of authority or are OK with their kids doing what they are. And the 'racist' card is far too easy an excuse, when I lived in B'ham at the time of the 80's riots, the attackers were black, the victims of looting/vandalism were almost all asians (corner shops/pubs/community centres torched...)
In a sense, a good lesson to those who thought it was a marvellous idea to spend millions of pounds for the London olympics 'regenerating' the area....waste of taxpayer money in my view

sounds all a bit familiar when the tories were out of control previously & riots seemed the norm......will they listen NO!!

@IVAN MILETITCH...What`s the logic of your point?, would you`ve said that if, for instance, they where from Denmark or Sweden and White?, you would`nt say "i`m sorry but the White Scandinavians have to accept its share of responsibility", would you?, all you are pointing out is that they have black skin!!, lots of the victims are also black, but you obviously won`t point this out because it would`nt suit your point!!, Most of these troublemakers are YOBS and THUGS!!, That`s it!, black and white, and possibly of mixed race!, so this further makes your point illogical.

It's a combination of liberalism and my generation's values from the 60's that has led to this.

"Young People" seem to think that they are somehow entitled to things beyond a basic education without having to work for it.

They have been told by successive governments that they have rights and of course the PC brigade have ensured that the underlying culture of anti-social behaviour and criminal activity goes unpunished and encourages a lack of respect for anything. It starts in schools where anarchy is allowed by law.

What happened last night is a disgrace and is inexcusable and those that can be caught should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

It's time for the decent people to strike back staring with educating the young that the only right they have is to become a responsible member of society of face some draconian sanctions.....fat chance!

If the IPCC does conclude that the police shot an armed man who tried to kill a police officer, then those rioters and apologists should hold their heads in shame!

p j wall. I've never been to Bradford, but did drive through once, but wasn't that impressed.

@ PJ WALL - yes, had they been from Norway etc... I'd have said EXACTLY THE SAME. So yes, it is (check the news/headlines...)predominently a 'black uprising' & I'm saying that to a great degree, the solution can only be found within that community. For instance, I imagine that you (as I do & I suspect many parents too) know where your children are at this time of night (22:00). Clearly, there are hundreds of kids whose parents either don't know that they are riotting or do not care all that much (or who 'cannot stop their kids going out', but this indicates, for whatever reason, abdication of parental authority) I hope this has clarified the 'logic of my point' to you (similarly, the rise of the far right is mostly a white issue & the answer also lies within the white middle classes & how they think a protest vote for BNP might be OK)

BBP Midlands update: "West Midlands Police said it was aware of some disorder, including vandalised shops and incidents of theft.
Nine people have been arrested, a spokesman said. Six of those arrested are juveniles."

Once again, is it normal or acceptable for parents to let their children out at night without any parental control?

I think the Tottenham (& subsequent Enfield!) riots are indicative of the general mentality of a (vast?) ection of the population. A gun carrying 'gangsta'(I'm sure the list of convictions is soon going to follow) is killed by the police (that's the risk associated with this type of activity after all!) & we see a demonstration (not against gun crime! no...) against Police brutality! And this invariably turns into a riot where support for a multi cultural society is translated in helping yourselves to Ipods etc... in widespread looting. The Afro-carabian community is its own worst ennemy, in that gun crime is predominantly a 'black on black' affair. (by this I mean the victims are also predominently black) & any chance of ever finding a solution or a way forward will have to come from within the community. Incidentally, I was living in Lozells, B'ham (for about 2 1/2 years) at the time of the 80's riots, and after 10pm you'd have been lucky to meet anyone who wasn't carrying drugs/knife/gun (poss all three!)

After the Bradford riots, many business simply left the area never to return. The same will happen here. These appalling out-brakes of criminally are often applaud by the extreme political-left. The hard working and law abiding citizen from all communities simply look on in despair.

@ evol -- Agree with you...but I'm afraid this puts us in the 'old fascist' category... Nowadays, trying to explain that, after all, there is a 'moral right' & 'moral wrong' catalogues you as an old fart (at best, at worst, you can see the result with the Christian couple court case * LOST! * vs local council!)
Almost anything is excused... we 'have' to understand that young black boys underachieve at school, and this is why there is a higher likelyhood of criminality in that particular ethno-economic group (it is true that there is a link between academic underachievement & low-level crime rate). However why blame society when a 12 year old systematically doesn't do his homework / absconds - when teachers are (again, at best) verbally abused by boys(& sometimes girls) of that age, well the parents (sadly more often than not parenT) are to blame.

You may think all this is anodecdotal, but I view all this as symptomatic. Moral standards are generally slipping, so at the 'top of the scale' you find MP's fiddling their expenses & newspapers endemically tapping phones etc... & at the 'bottom' you find people who find it acceptable to smash shop windows & help themselves to goods & then blame all this on poor race-relations

@ PJ WALL (2) ... actually, your remark about me not saying anything about the victims being black is unfounded....just look up (same article 4.18am 8th aug - about 12 boxes below your own entry!) - I did try & explain that part of the reason why the solution lies within the afro carabean community is that gun violence is mostly a 'black on black' affair

These idiots didn't riot in protest against cuts or the murder of a known 'gangsta', they looted everything that wasn't nailed down for personal advantage.

Most of those caught on camera were educated under a Labour run government. How the likes of D Abbot can then blame the Coalition for acts committed by mindless idiots with zero self-respect raised under a system run by her beloved party for 10+ years gob-smacks me - opportunity politics at its very, very worst.

I wonder how many of the looters could answer the sum required to get your post posted on this site?

This is the "big society" - where there are fewer and fewer rights: benefits go and dispensable charities take over; youth clubs go; sure start goes. People with no rights do not feel they belong; how can they? It's "them" and "us" - and the answer is crime, despair or rioting. These three are the violent responses to the violent disowning of people by the State.
Cameron is returning from Tuscany? A little late, but even later might have helped...
