There are so many articles on the riots in Britain that it would be impossible to post them all. I’m not sure how this will work out, but I’m posting the hyperlinks from the Independent for those who wish to follow events, keeping in mind that this is an MSM slant. It may be helpful, may not. Have to see.
What it will probably leave out is any sense of how today’s youth may not be able to find steady work, a single job that pays their keep, an entry-level position to many industries, etc. My personal opinion is that British youth have finally said, “That’s enough. We’re no longer cooperating.”
