In the news

Do Chinooks generally fly in formation over S London ?

You see them flying over London occasionally. Often heading to/from the barrack in the City.

Can you get a Sky feed? That one is still up.

No. Is this like cycling? Is there a web page I can go to that specialized in live riot coverage?

3 chinooks just flew over clapton

the fuck?

There are Chinooks passing over the Isle of Dogs every week for the last few months. SOmetimes in pairs. Dunno why, would like to know.

Non stop sirens here in Victoria. I wonder where they are headed? No sign of it kicking off in Westminster at present. Lets hope those helicopters are armed with some decent missiles

Oh wait. You don't need Sky for Sky News. I'm good with TV.

Cheers!

Yeah, freeview channel 81 or something like that

So I went home early to avoid getting stuck in any nonsense after hearing the reports about Hackney. It was eerie going along the route parallel to the town centre, hearing helicopters and almost drowned-out crowd noise from Mare Street. Few signs of anything wrong this far from the town centre. I do hope they manage to get the situation under control. This town centre hopping rioting/looting is just insane.

What are these fucking things?

BBC reporting that BoJo has cut short his holiday. About bloody time.

Boycott sky

i know that helicopter blades are good for clearing zombies, not sure about scumbags though..

Quite often actually and at relatively low altitude. There aren't any tactical places to land one in or around the city so they would have to land miles away and then the response teams would have to be driven in. Pointless really. There will be no shortage of support if needed tonight.

Now kicking off in lewisham

Brockley FTW!

It would have been seriously damaging to him if he hadn't. Still, the initial hesitation speaks volumes.

Those would be black people.

Theresa May sounds like Anne Diamond...

Hackney Downs is located conveniently close to Hackney Town Centre if they're looking for a place to land. So is London Fields.

I'm being told Camden and Brent Cross/Staples corner are being targeted?

im lovin it

I'm lootin' it?

Told you there was going to be some serious response units out tonight.

Doh! wrong pic meant this one

Clearly some type of heavy-duty vehicle. :) Like you, I don't know their function.

They look american...

It's weird watching the coverage, while listening to -
