In the wake of the uprising and violence of the past week, I found myself becoming quite depressed by the extreme reaction of the 'normal' people to these extraordinary events.


I am someone who likes to look for logical reasons for things and for workable solutions, so I think it is important to try understand the deeper causes of the unrest.


is very interseting and goes some way, in my opinion to explain some of the issues in this complex issue., so I thought I'd sdhare it with the good folk of ED.

But we are never going to agree with everything that is said are we..? Considering other people's opinions, in my humble opinion, is as valid as presenting them..


I liked his monopoly analogy.


Oh and the background music is very engaging too.. Quite a clever choice as it fits well with the content.

    • This kind of thing? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/286379655798?_skw=vw+front+radar&itmmeta=01JNGWMJGWJBG0HRT2XS211T68&hash=item42ad8ec276:g:ZHUAAOSwJdFnxhF9&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1dY%2BfrruzZmTdah0d0nXmXVc9FNiTWblTNNY8jXn37QS%2BAVkwkKSljysp3AMj48HKn63sLwl6BYEqy685rlqwWykTX8It5nPW2FAOfewwqb0iEuSPS6%2BmFgBLH75xBeWGHsV%2BgkvvBmlxApgnovZUAVP7QA6XPgyIZDu54SPmrp0v5AtIDU8Mg4O7QJ5gZF%2FBfgePNdu0vc2xLzsSBPoF1Wh84K6OElw3PZl585iPqbaEIvTGa9J3glnIrh5i4SwrG8SmrOtb9gMt3%2Bovwifcz%2FC5GaC59xp%2FP%2B2iKeJcsw5w%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBMgqnSnKxl  
    • Possibly a little specialist (and the ultimate eventual clothes horse unless you're into fitness!) but we have the Pivot: PIVOT | Ultimate Space-Saving Bed & Home Gym Solution It's a full weight Olympic squat rack which pulls down from the wall into a double/king bed. When we bought it as a Kickstarter project it was less expensive than a murphy bed from places like the Wall Bed Company, though this may no longer be the case. Super easy to put together ourselves.
    • The skatepark has been a great use of a derelict site, but surely the point is that that site should not have been allowed (and should not continue to be allowed) to have become derelict in the first place. As someone who couldn't live much closer to the Grove Tavern, I would welcome any redevelopment efforts. The current state of the pub is untenable, wasteful and ultimately an embarrassment for the local area.  The concerns mentioned about young people and the lack of public space for them to spend time are totally valid. And I agree, its very inspiring that a group of teenagers have built the skate park and created something out of nothing. But that shouldn't prevent the site being turned into something that is of utility to the whole community - whether that be housing, supermarkets or a pub/restaurant.
