    Of course, look at the front page of the Sun for people caught.

    The Sun | The Best for News, Sport, Showbiz, Celebrities | The Sun| The Sun

    7/8 are white and one of them is Frank Gallagher.

    Of course, of the pictures shown of rioters in the press the majority were black, which just goes to prove, white men can't jump.

    That was mine too - not too many asians up to no good in Brum, seemed mostly black people in London and seemed to be white youths in Manchester.

    Obviously I'm only going off what I saw on TV, which is just a snapshot really.

    This is all bollocks. The lads in question were not EDL they were Millwall !

    The lad who threw the bottle got slotted by his own !

    The police closed 2 of the 5 pubs Millwall were drinking in - making them spill out onto the road.

    This was NOT part of the riots. The hoodies wouldn't dare !

    Try the Mister Choc Peanut Choco ones at Lidl. Cheaper and to my taste buds 99% as good as Marathons.

    That last 1% is for brand snobs.

    Top Tip DP.
    Fill up at a Shell garage. You can get 2 for £1 then.

    Mind you, the fuel will cost you £10 more, but then you will have the warm glow of knowing that you are helping the Oil Companies eke out a profit.

    How bizarre!
