I have seen some of conspiracy theories as to why this has been such a distruprive set of incidents - some people believe that the Police was "too slow" on purpose. I don't think so myself (I just think they were taken by surprise by the scale of the events), but the outcome will be favourabe for the Police (they were facing cuts, but the cuts will be canceled after this, I think).

I'm not sure if the Army is the solution. I'm not sure either the all media talking and making it huge is a solution too. *shrugs*

You know me - I am "take an axe out and chop their heads off" kind of girl. :D Like everyone, I am not sure what will help, but it seems that the Police is not capable to do it on their own.

It is awfully big, though. there have been some incidents in Leeds, and there have been Police helicopters and Police siresn heard everywhere today.
