I'm fucking petrified. -
@ Garnett - hmmm, well 90% of the rioters I saw in Peckham were young black males but then roughly 80 to 90% of the young men I see in Peckham (say when going shopping for example) are black. From travelling along Walworth Rd (although I don't live there I don't live far away) I'd say the vast majority of young men I see in that area are black. So the fact that most of the rioters both on Walworth Rd and in Peckham were black shouldn't really come as much of a surprise.
I don't see what your point is really? I don't think you're being racist it's just the population of these areas, non? But I'm surprised you're surprised as you live there and mingle with the population on a daily basis.

Liverpool's not looking good. They'll move up into Liverpool ONE and raid all the shops.Used to live right by here. From what I can tell there's couple of hundred youf who've moved down from smithdown rd towards here on the way to L1. Doubt police will let them get anywhere near Liverpool one if they have the numbers, but up there it would have just been a normal Tuesday night.
Might be a shortage of lacoste tracks come tomorrow though.

Call the police, lie, you have two young children and there are people downstairs trying to set your place alight, they could simply not handle the press, they will be there in 2-3 minutes.
