Interestingly enough, when London Riots and London Protests started trending on Twitter pretty much all tweets reported peaceful protesting (with an exception of a punch up in front of Downing Street) and called out the media on the attempt to smear the protesters as a violent mob.
But since London is a multiethnic city I can imagine the initial protests were attended by genuine protesters whose ranks quickly got infiltrated by troublemakers, possibly hoping for some looting opportunities, like those in the US. Either that or the media and comrades in BLM arms wound each other up to the point of becoming increasingly radical in their approach. The twitter search for those tags itself shows a change in attitudes. It started off as a debate and now they're digging up dirt on white people, including the media hating Meghan and adoring Kate.
Given how quickly events are developing there will probably be many more surprises along the way but I was wondering about something. If the riots continue throughout the summer it will be a good excuse to play the 'second wave of corona infection' card - and blame it on the protesters. Except that by the time fall comes it will be BLM and their opposite rioting.
I hope they don't end up playing the 'second wave' card now and blaming it on the protesters becuase the we'd be in this lockdown till proverbial cows come home. Geez...I've never been keeping my fingers crossed for a hit for the C's as much as I'm keeping them crossed for their prediction of the lockdown lasting around 2 months!

Q: (L) So, it's going to be weather playing a more prominent role... What about a second wave of coronavirus in the fall? Is that a problem?
A: Not really, though what does come may be called by that name!
Q: (L) So there could be some other thing that comes as a wave of infection and they'll call it...
(Andromeda) ...the second wave of corona...
(L) But it will be something else. Is that it?
A: Yes
