The Riot Wombles

Over the last three days, my faith in the residents of a seemingly not so Great Britain has been strating to wear thin. I turned on the news this morning, expecting to see more debris and destruction across the country. I was surprised however, and thoroughly heart-warmed by the large groups of the public who had formed their own clean-up teams, and were setting about sweeping and clearing up the wreckage from looted shops. It was nice to see that people care about their communities, and that local businesses that had survived the riots were offering food and drink to the clean up teams.
Faith in humanity not lost yet.
