My response to Cameron: Too little, too late.

That's usually the case. Nothing done until all

You'd think by now that measures to deal with

Good old minimum policing. The police can hardly do a thing until they're given the authority to use force, and when they get that authority most aren't even trained in using it. What they need to do is go full riot police. Batons and guns free, and shield-bash these dumb fucks to the ground. Beat them until they stop struggling.
