Sorry to ask how did you find out please?

Is not rumour it's fact,in any event come to this country you are or rather should be subject to our laws,rioting in protest is not appropriate and if you are not a citizen of this country you should be deported and if you are jailed.

I believe they are on hunger strike, a bit of frontier justice, let em starve I say.

I am more interested in what precisely kicked the riot off.  (I have only seen rumours that social services were trying to take some Roma children into care, and that the riot started from there.)
Personally I would like to know far more factual detail about it.

The police lost a battle there, but they won't lose the war. They have a lot of videos to watch and people to round up:
