        I think you’ll find that it was indicated that Fagin was gping to be hung at the end of the book…..you’re thinking of the original musical where Ron Moody danced off into the sunset with a group of smiling urchins

    anyone would think that the political classes have never used violence to attain their own ends.

    this whole saga is ridiculous.

    what does that say about commenters who apparently haven’t got a clue as their country is removed from them, under their very nose, by the elites – blame the victims FFS – no one is an island except the white english it seems

    Lou Scannon says:

    So let’s get this right : Wavy Davey and Fluffer Osborne actually want to encourage street crime so that they can justify taking money from the poor to piss away in offerings to their rich friends in the EU and third world countries that run space programmes.

    Theresa May wants to name & shame the young people involved in the riots (contrary to current law)

    Funny how only recently it was decided to keep the names of MPs being investigated for robbery from the public purse secret

    One law for them another for the rest

      Tough Talk BUT will anything actually happen ?? says:

      I shouldn’t worry nothing will happen in the end ….firstly the law requires to be changed and the Tories won’t get it past their Coalition partners let alone passed by Parliament…also this talk about targetting gangs,evictions etc is just hot air to keep the “Daily Mail” and its readership happy and thinking that the government ios getting tough…the fact is that the very politicians who are sounding off on the lines of “Something WILL be done !” are the very ones that passed the law that actually stop them actually doing what they threaten in the first place.. the Human Rights Act will stop the government’s proposals being they are even implemented and you can expect that the ECHR will instruct them to stop such action and issue a fine against them if they persist that’s WHY the country is in the mess it is. The only way for the government to do what it says is to repeal the Human Rights Act and aagin they will be unable to do this for the simple reason that the Tories do not command a majority in Parliament that’s why “Dave’s” manifesto proposals have been kicked into the long grass by setting up a commission on the subject…he know’s he can’t actually do it or that his Coalition partners will vote for it. The fact is the LibDems have the whip hand on evry piece of legislation in regard to these matters

      Also expect plenty of bullshit from “Dave” this morning but in the end very little action that he or anyone else can take within the current laws of the land and as I said he simply will not get any legislation passed into law for the simple reason that the LibDems and Labour won’t support anything that smacks of endangering an individuals rights

        Well said Tough Talk

        But don’t fall into the Tory fantasy that iDave would be some sort of Tory Rambo if it weren’t for the Limp-Dumps.

        He is a a leftist Blue Labour cretin who could have got in on a landslide if he hadn’t peddled his “Hier to Bliar” tripe and had to suck up to the Limps to get into Downing st.

        If they vanished tomorrow he would still be the EU-sucking , green marxism peddling little shite he is.

      If they are innocent (including those charged but not convicted) then they can’t.

    can’t wait for Dave’s moral blockbuster

    Presumably the moral he’s talking about are his and anyone who doesn’t agree with him is morally unsound.

    morality in isolation is pure nonsense and once again top-down crusading

    he’s hardly a good example either

    Cameron say he wants a social fightback well why wont he start by shutting down that left wing anti British and Labour supporting BBC.
    then perhaps we can have some proper debates rather that listening to all the lies/bile from this overgrown lefty organisation.
    Everyone knows now what they are doing FFS Cameron get a grip.

    MAD FRANKIE HADDOCK son of COD says:

    Totally off topic !
    But ,Last week my van broke down
    i had to get towed to a garage where i had a complete new clutch ,slave and master cylinders etc
    On top of losing a days pay,it cost me £500 on top of my misery was £100 VAT
    making the total £600
    My question is why the fuck should the government get £100 off me for doing sweet FA ?
    In my view a clutch is essential as i cannot work without it , I will be able to claim it all back against tax
    But the man in the street would not be able to do this and it just got me thinking that governments should not be adding VAT to things that are essential to people earning a living !

    Moan over !

    Aagh…the monster has surfaced again.

    Gordon Brown has spoken out against what he described as “politicised” parts of the British press, which he said try to “destroy pieces of people’s characters” to make political points.

    The former prime minister made the remarks during an unscheduled appearance at the Edinburgh International Book Festival, where he joined wife Sarah on stage.

    How to Tories can win a landslide election victory:

    1) Bring all the troops home
    2) Withdraw from the EU
    3) Raise the personal allowance to around £25k

    Only around 30% of the population, those permanantly hooked on state money would vote agains the above platform.

      4) Instruct the Police to police the streets with the consent of the law-abiding 95% of us, and not the consent of rioters, looters, drug-dealers and Gangstas.

      A lot of decent people are fed up with seeing the victims of crime being arrested for having the temerity to defend themselves against thugs, or for saying something that might offend a scumbag.

    The cartoonist has a sickeningly stereotypical 1960s vision of Class, Privilege and Race. This is not an epithet suitable for 2011.

    The UK racial group under most pressure at the moment was securely at home watching TV during the civil disturbances. Only fools and “Johnnie-Come-Lately’s” went out to walk the streets in the midst of riots.

          Bollocks

          What the cartoon (and it is badly drawn) makes very clear is that Camoron is a con-man. Talks tough but will do nothing apart from stealing more money off the public and passing laws that increase the states oppressive power over ordinary people with something to lose and have zero effect on the scumbags (including the looters in Westminster)
