People don't do those things when they are busy and well integrated in the society and not hungry. In most cases, you can safely blame government for the long-term effects of short term policies.

Pretty much spot on. It isn't pretty, it isn't right, it's just built up anger and blind rage. Blind freddy could see it coming - not the time and place but that there will be economic riots. The quote below is from the ABC site; seem to sum it up:
My brother is in Hackney. We just spoke to him on the phone and he's ok. He's locked himself inside his flat as there are rioters outside his building. He heard an argument t his front door earlier. A group a black youths confronted a white guy and said "you look wealthy. We aren't putting up with this anymore. We have nothing. You have no idea what it's like." my brother said it looks like a war zone.
War zone indeed.
