London Riots - The Riots in their own words part 2 notes

• Like a bubble – no one bothered you if you were driving about in your car.
• Rioters seem excited, not actually related to the death of Mark Dougen story.
• Escalates really – bus on fire
• Adrenaline + Buzz
• Little kids being involved – got no reason to.
• People rioting iver other reasons (Jobs, government etc)
• Lidl – Alcohol was stolen but no fruit, veg or other types of food. Just expensive things.
• Stupidity and anger to make a statement – don’t like the corrupt system.
• People stopping to see fire in furniture store – realism (people knew how serious the riots were getting)
• Up bring – Future Careers (how people were brought up and raised at home and how it will affect them in the future)
• Easy for Media to jump to conclusions.
