Following a peaceful march on 6 August 2011 in relation to the police response to the fatal shooting of Mark Duggan by Metropolitan Police Service firearms officers on 4 August 2011, a riot began in Tottenham, North London. In the following days, rioting spread to several London boroughs and districts and eventually to some other areas of England, with the most severe disturbances outside London occurring in Bristol and cities in the Midlands and North West of England. Related localised outbreaks also occurred in many smaller towns and cities in England. Yeah, so what. The demonstrations were due to the cutbacks. Rioting had occurred prior to these riots where Prince Charles car was attacked when he was no his way to the opera. People in the UK are pissed. The situation was explosive and continues to be to this day.
