Here you go.

This applies to the borough of Haringey, not just Tottenham, by the way. Not sure if that makes a lot of difference as Haringey isn't exactly a rich area is it?

Population (2008 est.)

Fair enough - I was assuming you were taking your figures from the 2001 census as the 2011 figs won't be released for a while...

Have the Judean People's Front got involved yet?

[DIRK STEELE]

But this is so Baudrillardian

Ha! Are you for hyperreal?

 

[public school boy]

[Captain Haddock]

That's so odd seeing the local HMV I browse in regularly, being plundered like that. Would never have imagined it, whereas Tottenham...

I was working in and around that area last year. It's true some areas are not great but in truth they're no better or worse than plenty of other areas both in and outside of London. When was the last time there was a full scale riot in Whitehawk ?

 

[trueblue]

Interesting how the media always call it "looting".

It's STEALING, ffs. In fact, assuming the premises are closed at the time, it actually constitutes burglary, which could warrant a prison sentence.

I don't care what someone's gripe with society is, half of the stuff this weekend is nothing more than greedy, cowardly, thieving toerags masking their faces and looking for things to steal. It's shameful, and it's not even as though they're going after just the giant chainstores. They're robbing small, local shops too, for crying out loud. Run by local people from the Tottenham area who've probably worked their butts off half their lives for little reward, only for gangs of utter pondlife to smash their way in and help themselves to the contents of the shelves.

Absolutely.

As for the story that will whip things up further - the bullet in the radio being police issue & therefore there was possibly no shoot out - well, there doesn't seem to be any dispute the guy was carrying a gun. It may have been in a sock apparently. Of course nobody wants the police shooting people dead indiscriminately but this is not one of those distressing cases where the victim was unarmed. If you decide to carry a weapon in Britain then you may have to live (or rather not live) with the consequences.

In the Bradford riots of 2001, people were tried under the crime "act of riot" which encompassed burglary/violent disorder - it was only premeditated serious crime such as arson which was tried in addition to the "act of riot". I think the same thing will happen here, and - as I said in the other post - I hope that they are all given very stiff sentences as with the asians in 2001.

Exactly, all of a sudden the local community leaders seem to be painting this 'victim' as a near saint but how come a 'saint' is carrying a gun ? Whatever the Police did it leaves the credibility of these upstanding figures rather in doubt.

They have clearly chosen to target the most upmarket shopping area in the Enfield, Haringey boroughs. Loads of police sirens audible last night from my house and talk of Waltham Cross being attacked; can't really understand why though, who would stoop as low as looting Poundland and without KFC the little sxxts would probably starve.

I must admit it was half inched from a pic someone else put on Facebook so that makes me a thief and therefore lawless i must be shot ha ha !!!

Without ethnic, racial, religious tension these people would not have anything to do. They encourage separation for their own benefit.

f*** sake. Will leon knight never learn?

Yes that's a bit close to you isn't it? Waltham Cross seems a bizarre one. It's like hearing it's all kicked off in Lancing!!!

Drove around today and Enf town is still cordoned off. Enf' retail park was hit (sports retailer and Curry's by the look of it).

 

[SeagullAA]

Thugs are planning on descending on Lewisham and Bromley tonight. Maybe there will be more at Brixton.

 

[SeagullAA]

This girl wearing a Curry's uniform has been arrested for looting the Curry's store SHE WORKS FOR.

Noticed a photo of a cashpoint which had been ripped out of a wall in Tottenham on Saturday night. Beside it, someone had sprayed "RIP Mark" in black paint.

How utterly shameless, to use the death of a man, whatever his status in life, to justify thieving in that way.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I noticed in one of the images of PC World, or Currys, whatever, it was all the display models that had been nicked.

Keep your eyes on eBay for loads of dirty, fingerprint marked laptops, complete with crude penises and "Kelly heart Tyrone" scrawled on the MS Paintbrush screens.
