My granny used to make 'Wait and See pudding', which, I think, was just from being asked what was for pudding and her saying "Wait and see"!

I've just come in from taking the washing in and really going now, and just stopped to take one last look, but oh, how I wish I had a name for him. Well, I have, but I can't let it out on here 
He looks like a Dick to me 
Dick`s been arrested.

I really hope that isn't true 
it won't solve anything and those three lads are still gonna be dead. As far as I know, nothing has linked their death to the riots although there is a possibility it could be, but the full facts aren't known yet.

It was rumoured it was going to, they even got advised by the police to "Be prepared", but in the end nothing really happened.
My sister lives there, so we were in close touch.

No idea, looked like there were hundreds of them outside... apparently they were to stay there to protect the temple.
No idea why there is a little girl there
I'll ask my sister if she knows.

Good, let them break in and then board it up again once they've all piled in

First rioters to be jailed, 10 weeks & 16 weeks.... Should be more than that.
And those who set fires are likely to get a light sentence, surely if theres flats above those shops that were set on fire, it should actually go down as attempted murder?

As usual.....frontline people and those that actually do the job don't seem to matter
Well, Cameron has now said the police will get WHATEVER they need and dummy bullets CAN be used and Water Cannon HAS been authorised,
Too late if you ask me, we needed them Sunday, Monday and Tuesday!
Looks all quiet tonight, I don't think there will be more for now.

Some magistrate's courts are sending them to the Crown courts for sestencing because magistrates can only give a maximum of 6 nonths, apparently, while the Crown Courts can give up to TEN years.
Also I heard that there are over 2,000 places available in prisons in England and Wales - hope they're all filled very soon!
any of the youngsters that are charged following arrest will just get youth referrals - that'll teach them

Eh? Mag can sentence up to 2 years Crown can sentence life. And regardless of space, the prisons will find them..6 to a cell if they have to.

Yep! Sentenced for 10 weeks, out in 5 and if they've done remand before the case is heard that gets taken off, too. Just ship them all out to Tent City in Arizona for a couple of years. (If they survive it).

I've seen similar rumours about people travelling from all over the country to Brum tonight.
Kill a black every night? So they didn't see that white people were looting too? FFS

I don't think these riots have anything to do with the resentment Asian communities feel towards Afro-Caribbean communities - it's been a tinder box in Handsworth, Perry Barr, Lozells, Newtown and Winson Green between these two communities for a few years now.
There was a flashpoint, in 2006/7 I think it was, when there were accusations of Asian men raping an Afro-Caribbean girl and we had a few riots then. It seriously wouldn't take much for these two communities to lay into each other and last night may just be the catalyst that starts it big time
There is more likelihood of these two communities fighting each other than resentment against whites unless they are the Police!
