Police State UK"Two out of every five people arrested after participating in last summer’s riots had been previously reported to the police for domestic abuse."

"It’s not only the police who are institutionally racist, but the entire system. Islamophobia has long been used as a racist code by mainstream politicians. They cannot overtly appeal to a hatred of Black and Brown people, but they can use Islam as a proxy for race" – George Monbiot
"As Rusi explains, the UK has a genuine two-tier justice system. It treats some people – white, non-Muslim – as though they act from blind anger, and others – Brown, Muslim – as coordinated terrorists, even when they commit the same crimes." – George Monbiot
"the riots have been prosecuted as though they were random thuggery, although they emerge from a long and organised campaign of hatred directed towards asylum seekers, immigrants and Muslims" – George Monbiot
Alex GallagherThis is good reporting by the Times.
"What motivated the rioters? From Tommy Robinson to Facebook groups"
t seems pretty clear that social media played a large part in motivating the rioters and seeding the riots. Question is: what should/could/can we do about it?
