Re: summer of discontent
Scotland's such a quiet, peaceful place to live.
Scottish Labour have today highlighted shocking figures which show that violent crime in Scotland is running at four times the rate of England and Wales.

Re: summer of discontent
I just presumed it was tradition.
We had riots, Bristol, Toxteth, Brixton, just before the Charles & Diana royal wedding. It's nice when old customs are maintained.
