    I have been reading about the riots and it looks bad.

    I hope everyone in UK is safe.

    We'll probably have similar problems here too as our economy goes down the tube.

    Nor here in Brighton. but we have Pride on Saturday and there is rumour that the riots are planned to coincide with it to cause maximum disruption.

    I have heard a number of theories why the riots have happened and all indicate valid points. One thing is for certain, society is out of balance with contentment. Seems the Ministry of Happiness has its work cut out lol.
