        I'm not assuming that, I said it was a suspicion and it still is (General Chat) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 9, 19:28:27
        
        It's a suspicion by you. By no-one else at all, amongst the acres of opinion written about (General Chat) - Tricky Hawes, Aug 9, 19:32:18
        
        not at all, many are pointing to the link between cuts and the failure to control riots (General Chat) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 9, 19:39:11
        
        and it's not exactly assuming the worst of the police is it? (General Chat) - Worzel Scrimmage, Aug 9, 19:46:25
