Who started the riots with misinformation? A white right winger? Nah!

I see now apparently Magistrates have ordered a stop on jailing serious offenders. So we have keyboard warrior hurty worders put away whilst Serious violent offenders etc are now getting a clear message as long as you dont offend illegal immigrants you've got a green light to push your luck.
Im not going to say it but when people in control are fully aware of the state of prison utilisation ie maxed out and you have a choice of running a futile 'example' of people over showing emotional restraint and sticking to the program keeping those spaces left for serious offenders. I find that in itself is a very questionable act that should come under scrutiny itself in an enquiry. A bad call.
No i dont condone violence or racism but we also shouldn't be impulsive and knee jerk when resources are low. It shows a lack of overall grasp on long term strategy for law and order. Ok i just did. I also believe we should all have the right to express our opinion(without offence) without accusation of having a political affiliation.

Everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
Guilt and innocence is a binary concept. It's one or the other.
And if you're not guilty, you're innocent.

Certainly a baying mob of violent thugs don't get to decide on the hoof, or incited by racist commentators.

And violence is never justified.

The rapid sentencing is a tactic evolved after the 2011 riots. The immediate jail terms for the indisputably guilty has a real deterrence for the other rioters.

The racist idiots were always going to be going to prison, but by doing it quickly and with plenty of publicity it stopped more of them committing more crimes.
 
(edit - Festive how can you possibly be a lefty when you have the St Georges flag illustrating patriotism to your countries national flag, such a distasteful and offensive gesture)
I no longer fly the St georges flag.

Because my (adults) children tell me straight away its a clear sign of Farage and far right support.

Shame that is as been hijacked, it should still be my flag. 1 day I hope it will be acceptable to all, not just the far right.
 
Farage provoked the riots, that is the reason they have become known as the Farage Riots

That is not an accurate description of what has been said. So go read what you have found again or find a more accurate report.
