...hooded-eyed and 'fearful'? ...than we already are?
Of course the Britain (well...mostly England) of 2011 goes like this; distrustful, fearful, with some degree of chip-on-shoulder sulkiness brought on by a third party (Daily Mail usually). Like it or not, we don't particularly like anyone nowadays, and so the www.police.com link caused not only mass paranoia - but frustration as the poor dears couldn't get onto it, as it became oversubscribed
Went to see family in Coleraine over Christmas, and smiled at 'NF - C.NF' on a wall...nice to see some from Northern Ireland have done away with the usual reasons to kick off, and grab an all English classic from the mid-seventies onwards...a bit like the EDL are doing now; knowing nowt about the politics, but think it's a good reason to show everyone else how large the chip on shoulder they have. And so, with the state the UK is in at present; disliking and hating each other, along with mistrusting others, this sweety comes out for us all to peruse - and attempt to do so, we tried - with the system breaking down within minutes...along with telling us a couple of police call centres branded the worst crime spots...and even more laughable '...the total number of crimes in the London borough of Tower Hamlets' was zero.
That's Tower Hamlets with the districts Bethnal Green, Mile End and Millwall therein (amongst others).
Good 'luck' wherever you lay your head, and don't have nightmares...not entirely of the chance of being a victim, but becoming part of an unlucky herd of the scared who couldn't get on the link!
