London Riots

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

Could not understand why anyone would want to burn it down anyway!

Tescos got robbed too.

But anything else is unclear, just following it on Twitter #enfield

I gather! Thought you lived in Soho though?
Please keep us updated as to what has been robbed and what has been burned, as Twitter has a lot of retweets of wrong information.

:lol: Soho is just my weekend pad.

They've set fire to a few cars which are down side streets. Apparently someone has been stabbed as well.

Looking at Twitter is scary and educational too.

Tons of rumours, but a lesson in sitting back and waiting to see what is true and what is not.

Rumours of trouble in Waltham Cross, Holloway and Westfield Shopping Centre...no confirmations though.

Tbh Quartz, the youths in Enfield are just youths on their school holidays out to cause trouble. *word censored*, all of them.

Interested to see what the IPCC comes up with.

Saw a few shops on the high street such as nandos, hmv, with smashed up windows etc... as i drove past.

Problem is that it is now spreading through the A10 and towards Ponders End and with it being dark there is more potential for trouble.

Hard to knwo what to believe now.

Reports of trouble in Westfield Shopping Centre and Holloway too but looks like media is being censored to extent of trouble, or is it just people exagerating trouble?

Time will tell.

But someone just told me Holloway is true.

And LBC saying that Croydon now has trouble.

Twitter saying trouble is escalating in Brixton.

Perhaps media are being warned what to really show and what not to show?
