The rain must have stopped and with it they realised how isolated in society they are and are using it as a cry for help

Yep. And I've just had my annual holiday cancelled. Just got to tell the kids now.

Never mind, there's always next year.

Hang on though, we're getting a pay cut in September so that's out too.

Nice to be appreciated "Dave"
🙁

Off for another long night now.

Get it to start raining again, nobody wants a riot when they're cold and wet.

Which is why we don't need water cannon, hoses would do fine.

I like the hose idea. Combine it with UV tagging dye in the water and you have a doubly effective deterrent.

1 - You'll get cold and wet and your blinging new trainers wat you teefed off de man will no longer be so proppa boxfresh, innit blud?
2 - The authorities will be able ot identify that you were there and tie that in with any video evidence of your naughtiness.

We do need something to happen, the news is starting to dry up and the news loops are getting boring now.

Had pondered why the powers that be don't do this - add to the tanks on water cannons, go and 'make rain' on the streets, no need to blast folk off their feet, unless they're being really silly.

Do you

(1) Actually understand the concept of long-term modes of addressing social problems?

(2) Have the ability to understand arguments on their own terms rather than in the form of caricature?

Just asking.

If I was Tommy "The Shank" Sherridan, I hit on his Counsellor, she's proper bo. The clanking of all the bangles as she relieves some of my pent up tension .

nah, needs to be bright pink!
I was going to say it was not too good an idea as the streets / property will need a lot of cleaning but then, thinking about it, there'll be a huge amount of Community Service Hours to be paid back so, no shortage of labour for the clean up... 🙂
