For some channels, that would be a "win"
Apparently it is for #BBCPanorama

I think that is #sad

Well, are we wiser? Not really
Do we understand our "fellow citizens" any more? A tiny bit?
Did it look at who stoked up people to riot? No
Did it look at the conditions that caused the riot? No
Did it offer anything to reduce those conditions? No
Did it make us angry? Yes

Did you research #PatrioticAlternative who offered you money?

Interviewing someone on #IJoinedARiot on #BBCPanorama as he man-spreads using a wide-angle lens is not a flattering look.

Even if you have no sympathy with him (I have little), the #BBC should be wary of expressing subliminal opinions?

If all those like the rioters in #Southport want "the immigrants gone", would they support sending them to #EastEssex to keep the "problem" out of 649 of the #UK's constituencies?

It's cost thousands of pounds to increase #security at the #Mosque in #Southport

Did the UK Government contribute - as I believe they have for other places of worship?

Or did the victims have to pay?
