I enjoyed the fact A Woman of Stupid Ideas Ltd said
The reason it got out of control was there were far more students than police, we need more police.

Oh ok let me just order some, can everyone else in london please stop committing crimes we need all the Police

I blame the Met's love of kettleing
they bang on about it like they're very very clever for keeping people in one area until they're so pissed off and hungry they go home.
That's why people weren't following the routes, thats why people were activley trying to avoid the police.

Well if I was boxed in, told I couldn't go down a public street,
was cold, hungry and needed a piss and then got charged at by a horse, I certainly wouldn't be pissed off and would head right home. The MET are heavy handed bastards at the best of times.
