Anybody else thinking (#londonriots) #cameronfail

Restricting social networking: illegal - but hey why did we sign that pesky European treaty anyway, knee-jerk, impossible to police (unless we turn into China) and completely against any notion of free speech.

Stopping benefits and evicting from council accommodation: illegal (that pesky European treaty again), arbitrary (if you live in private accommodation, you're punished less?) and impossible to implement (what are you going to do with their children? Throw them out in the street penniless as well? What if they live with their Grandma is she on the kerb with a hastily gather bundle too?). Oh and such a successful way of preventing rioting, because a gang of penniless homeless people with a known history of criminality would make a desired decorative feature of any high street or residential neighbourhood.

If this really is the best response we can come up with as a society I'm thinking maybe we deserved the rioting.
