Give them some beer and they soon show their true colours.

A bunch of yobs looking for trouble under the guise of 'protecting England'. They probably only turned up last night as they were busy looting and petrol bombing 'foreigner' property the previous nights.

At least it gave the fuzz some baton practice while the looters stayed at home playing on their new Xbox.

"Local police denied the group were comprised of EDL members."

While I suspect there were EDL members present, it doesn't require very much imagination to see that they might be joined by the very rioters they are seeking to put down.

Last night hundreds of police from eight separate forces tried to restore calm from the mainly white men.

Interestingly, I never heard the media say "Last night hundreds of police from eight separate forces tried to restore calm from the mainly black and asian men helping themselves to trainers and plasma TV's." when the looting was in full swing?

I get the impression that there were plenty of black AND white folks involved, but not a lot of Asians.

Mich, where do you get your impression from?

Too busy running corner shops I suspect.
