>IMO you're both as bad as each other. So I often hear people say: the people who publish people's personal details with incitments to violence are just as bad as the people who snigger at the publication (by a disgruntled Fascist) of the names and addresses of Fascists. As for actual violence, rather than incitement to it, the Fascists are a long way ahead on that one.

Most public order type violence, these days, arises from Anti Globalisation and ANL protesters. I'm suspecting them to be roughly the same people in both instances.

There is always a small number of people who want to break things or throw stuff. If the police don't want a fight, they can easily isolate them or, more often, let the stewards and the rest of the crowd get them in order.
You only get a big fight or riot if the police want it. Most people on a demonstration do not want trouble and will usually look for a way out. The poll tax riot started because the police attacked the crowd.

It doesn't take that many of them before things get out of hand.
From what I've seen you can always tell the situations where people are there just to cause trouble, 'isolating' them just doesn't work because they know if they go completely ballistic when the police try to isolate them, their mates, and some people in the crowd will join in, and then its too late to isolate anyone.
> You only get a big fight or riot if the police want it. You can believe that if you want but its not 100% true. I've seen riots start and carry on for hours and all the police were trying to do was disperse people to start with.
(Carlisle riots, 1980s. Multiple fighting kicked off in a few places round town more or less at the same time, police broke up the fights, people ran, see people from other fights running towards them, more random fights, ended up with mass battles drifting up and down the main high street and square. Police completely clueless for quite a few hours. Couple of the fighters rolled right over the bonnet of my car as I was sitting at lights trying to get out of the area)

Vandalism, broke into building sites, trashed some w.nkers car? Depends how old people are, but young people seem to be exceedingly easy to lead astray and put their individual morals aside.
Was watching something on that "Living History" torture re-creation program on Sky last week where they build some stocks and put a team member in them. Ok, its only throwing rotten tomatoes but everyone in the team who build it was suprised at how easily the public joined in throwing things at a complete stranger, just because others were doing it.
It seems once people in a crowd see a few members of that crowd doing something, they just take those individuals moral judgement as their own and join in.
Scary.

CN 27.01.1989 p1 City riot case 4 found guilty CN 03.02.1989 p4 Rioters took over the Market Place CN 03.02.1989 p10 Keeping law and order CN 03.02.1989 p14 Crackdown on the city rioters CN 05.05.1989 p11 City police heroes are honoured CN 20.04.1990 p4 Police were targets of rioting city mob
Which doesn't help a lot!
I can't remember personally what they were about, I know about then (1989ish) there were a lot of problems with all the clubs closing at the same time (there are a lot of nightclubs in Carlisle for the size of the city center), the drunks pouring out at 2am and usually quite a few fights.
It was strange as I remember seeing the usual crowds milling around, staggering into the road, then one small crowd running one way, another running the other way, the first spotting the second and doing a U turn and fighting started, then individuals spotted the fight and just launched themselves into it, Then more crowds spotted each other, more fighting, then the police started being targeted, but mostly just infighting.
IIRC after this the council experimented with different closing hours, moving the taxi ranks, relaxing taxi pickup laws, etc, in an attempt to get people out of the city centre ASAP.
DR, do you remember any more about this lot?

Well recounting what I've been told about a lot of employer strategies around this neck of the woods regarding Polish immigrants, they seem to be able to walk into jobs at will. They are often paid more than their English 'competitors', often English people will only be employed on short-term contracts via agencies (usually at exorbitant commissions) while Poles are offered direct employment.
While I can appreciate the argument that Polish people have a different (better?) work ethic than your run-of-the-mill English hoodie, this is also a recipe for generating much racially motivated violence, vandalism etc., and plays into the hands of the likes of the GNP in recruiting members and attracting voters.

That's strange because everywhere I've worked it's been agencies supplying the Polish labour rather than them being employed direct.
It's not unknown for agencies to be renting large houses and a condition of employment (1) is that the workers rent rooms off the agency. They won't get away with that sort of stunt if they try it with local labour so the locals miss out.

My experience of Polish labour is that they'll work hard for a limited period of time (2) and then it'll tail off gradually, often reaching a low point where they get kicked into touch. There's also the problem that with the type of work I'm involved in they're more often than not crap.

That is often the case around here, but where my Son works he reports the opposite - mostly English through agencies at £6.60/hr with the agency charging more than double that, and a lot of Polish people on direct contracts on £11.70/hr
B&Q & Wilkinsons warehouses in Worksop are practically Polish Ghettos, as is a large logistics operation in Boughton which distributes to Woolies.

Not so much of this around here - a large Polish community, but they tend to own or rent their own houses.

My only direct experience was with my Polish assistant - he was employed as a line-marker, but is doing an OU computer science degree.
He was OK, enthusiastic and hard working, but his Linux and OS tendencies had to be kept in check. His problem was that he was on basic hourly pay, but the operatives can earn £40k with bonuses & overtime - he wanted to work in IT, but while he was working with me he wasn't earning any bonus or overtime.
He left on a Friday, and started as a fork lift driver the following Monday. Still looking for an IT role, but his english is abysmal, and he has little practical experience or qualifications on his CV, so we fully expect him to be back with us in the not to distant future.
