So did I as she told me Eve…and yes Tinks, we do need more stories about kids that are good kids. The majority of the kids that come into the shop are polite, respectful, well spoken, inquisitive and a pleasure to talk to. I’ve had to throw some kids out of the shop too but it has to be said that they are very much the minority.
If there are good things to come out of the riots it’s (hopefully) bringing home to the Government that the huge cuts in policing that they are imposing aren’t feasible, and also seeing communities pull together to clear up, support each other and to stand together and say “no more”. Well Mr Cameron….sorry, Dave…this is what you wanted wasn’t it? Big Society to help mend Britain’s Broken Society? Just don’t go condemning them as vigilante groups when they step into the breach left by your cuts to our services.
