Once again no arrests made, I wonder if the same would happen if it was the BNP who had attacked her?
/// After all, it was in Luton in March that a similar group of young Islamic protesters shouted obscenities at members of the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Anglian Regiment taking part in an Afghan war homecoming parade ///.
/// When a Mecca Bingo Hall opened, its windows were smashed after some Muslims claimed the neon 'Mecca' sign insulted their religion ///
/// Over the past 18 months or so, around 30 non-Muslim homes have been attacked. One white couple in their 80s had bricks hurled through their front window. A West Indian woman in her 70s was watching TV when a metal beer keg crashed through her bay window.///
The culprits have never been caught.
/// Such is the extent of the problem that government ministers are spending large amounts of money in Luton for a project called 'Preventing Violent Extremism'. More than £600,000 has been put into a 'hearts and minds' campaign to try to prevent young Muslims joining the fanatics.///

There may be a problem in Luton, but this clearly suggests the culprits in this instance were Muslim. If they've never been caught, no one knows who they were. This is just sensationalism aimed at causing trouble. Shame on the newspaper.

"Methinks you protest too much"
/// I'm going back to work it's more interesting than this.///
You mean you are employable, you do surprise me?
You odious little slimy excuse for a human being.
Regarding your persistent posts in trying to wheedle yourself out of the hole you have dug for yourself, I have only but one answer.
Keeping digging that hole, perhaps some passer by will oblige the human race by pushing you in and replacing the soil.

Yes - Luton is a no go area: http://en.wikipedia.o...n_the_Peace_Day_Riots
///On Peace Day, July 19, 1919,[3] the Town Hall was burnt down during a riot by ex-servicemen unhappy with unemployment and other grievances.[4] The riot started after members of the council arrived to read out the King’s proclamation and many in the crowd expressed their disapproval. Tension boiled over into violence and a number of protesters broke through the police line and forcibly entered the town hall. Shortly after a number of violent clashes took place, with the town hall being stormed by the crowd and eventually set on fire. A number of valuable documents relating to local history were lost, including a Papal Bull, sent by Pope Adrian IV to the vicar of Shefford in the 12th century. During the riot people broke into Farmers Music Shop and dragged pianos into the streets for dancing and singing, including ironically "Keep the home fires burning". The mayor at the time, Henry Impey was smuggled out of Luton never to return.///
What are your thoughts on exservicemen rioting?
