Absolutely, I fear the youths of today faces a bleak future. I wouldn't blame labour for this as some of their policies were about social inclusion. Can't say that about the Tories though.

How?

I think there's a link between stock markets crashing and kids rioting in London. Its heard behavior. There's some sort of zeitgeisty bubble bursting. Its like a big stampede of hoodie cows, or stock market trader cows, running us off the cliff for no logical reason any of us can really get hold of. I just hope I can get out of the way.
I live on Lordship Lane - but decided to leave my flat as soon as the trouble started. I'm staying with my parents in Cambridgeshire right now. Can anyone tell me what the current situation on Lordship Lane is? I am seriously worried about my flat (northern end of Lordship Lane). Thanks.

Extraordinary. Why did you leave?

Cuts to EMA will not affect the poor. Tuition fees haven't kicked in and have been woefully misreported - kids think they have to write a cheque for ?9,000 to go to university. And lack of employment opportunities has been the case for years.


13 years of Labour's social inclusion policies clearly have not succeeded.

EMA? We have to pay these scum to go to education?


Fees increase? Despite Blairs mad ideas - it's not a god given right to go to Uni.


Employment? Maybe...however I have spoken with my Dad tonight. He's been unemployed for 3 years and yet can't quite see the justification to steal and burn other peoples property. He's strange like that.


@WJFOX


Lordship Lane is quiet at the moment. No trouble or damage at the northern end.

    • The country didn't "hate Corbyn". Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer, if memory serves, and it was only due to our weird electoral system that they didn't win the previous election. Any hatred of Corbyn was whipped up by the right wing press. The Labour Party has completely lost its way. It doesn't seem to know what it stands for any more, and its members have deserted it in droves. Including me. Anyway, this is probably for the lounge, not being directly relevant to the subject of the thread.
    • Agree but Labour made a far worse start and the wheels seem to be falling off spectacularly quickly. Whatever the reason for Reeves' tears it made the markets very jittery and now there is real doubt about how much longer she will last but Starmer cannot afford to lose her - I think they are both toast and the likes of Rayner and Streeting will be licking their chops. A bit like what is happening with Cllr McAsh locally the internal politics of the Labour party always are the real driver of policy, direction and execution and for a government with such a huge majority to be struggling so much so early is really worrying. We should all be very scared because this is paving the way for Reform and a leadership challenge or swing to the farther-left within Labour would be an unmitigated disaster - we had another term of Boris because the country hated Corbyn and his far-left ideology and the far-left Labour may see a leadership challenge as their only feasible way to take the reigns - a bit like Cllr McAsh and his Momentum buddies.
    • He has been around for a few months now and looks so sad and unhappy   ,he is coming into the gardens at the top end of  Upland and  Dunstans Roads .Just wondered if he is owned as he is not neutered and keeps getting into fights with cats .
    • Starting with Brexit, all the way through to drunken lock down parties, and then finishing on Liz Truss' 'mini budget', I would say it was fairly disastrous from start to finish.
