Croydon in flames

[GoldWithFalmer]

Major opportunity for the authorities to send in snatch sqauds and dispose of the ring leaders,to the grey area of "missing peoples" list.

What the hell is that fire now on Sky, its huge

furniture store

 

[Bwian]

This is not about football, this is serious

Correct. I'm all up for taking the piss out of our Palace 'friends' but this is way beyond that.

This is really bad - I just don't understand. Sussex Police helicopter been sent to London (just reported on BBC)

 

[patchamalbion]

this is crazy...the police need to be equipped with rubber bullets and the works now

 

[Gary Leeds]

Send the army in, no rubber bullets, anyone found looting or starting fires gets a single warning to hand themselves over to the army, if they refuse then shoot them. Harsh but if they want to go around endangering innocent peoples lives then treat them like a terrorist

 

[Northstander]

I feel ashamed of this country.....never would have believed this!!!

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Fire now crossed the road.

 

[jimhigham]

This can't be entirely spontaneous, surely? Some groups must have co-ordinated this.

 

[seagullsslimjim]

shocking - get the army in and water cannons - this softly softly approach just won't do anything

 

[BUTTERBALL]

That is one hellava fire

 

[sir albion]

Surely selhurst must be the only wooden building in south london,only a matter of time before that shitehole goes up

 

[Surport Local Team]

this is outragous, get the army in!!!!!

The look of the heat is incredible, thankfully there is barely any wind today.

This can't be entirely spontaneous, surely? Some groups must have co-ordinated this.

the media were reporting on it so it's not surprising there would be some local "pride" at stake.

 

[Red'n'Blue]

100 years that family shop had being going for. Only for some ***** to come along and burn it.

 

[sam86]

Scary, scary pictures.
