Good luck and well done to your dad.

Hopefully, the instant justice will make the low lives, think twice, before attacking any property again.
From the amount of looting, the riots to me look like a cover for criminal gangs out to make financial gains.

They obviously don't care about the damage, lives and livelihoods they destroy, only their own selfish desires.
All civilizations are destroyed by do gooders from within. The left leaning liberal justice system in this country is a massive industry with rich pickings and livings to be made as the Cherie Blairs and her ilk prove time and time again. A criminal inside can't commit more crimes to keep the police active, CPS, prosecution and defence lawyers, judges, court officials etc, so it is in their interests to be as liberal as possible to continue to grow their industries, so their are doubles all round at our expense. Likewise, if a foreign criminal is deported, no more money to be earned from them by the 'justice' system, human rights lawyers etc.

Unfortunately, our left wing liberal, poor education system is making many young people unemployable, so better educated people with a better attitude to work from the EU are taking their potential jobs.
Unemployed young people with time on their hands and hot weather is a dangerous combination as the Arab Spring has proven.
