:I'm not clear exactly what changes you are proposing, but I certainly prefer the past tense to the 'historic present' tense. [[User:Sweet6970|Sweet6970]] ([[User talk:Sweet6970|talk]]) 21:43, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

The police said they were unable to deal with the riots effectively due to having too few officers who were trained to do so. Has there been any explanation as to why the army weren't sent in to make arrests and stop the rioting? Jim Michael (talk) 15:53, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
That's mainly because in the UK, for something like that to happen you'd need an armed inssurrection, not rioting. Deployment of the military for domestic matters in the UK is considered a really bad idea, mainly due to experience in The Troubles--NVDELHm (talk) 10:54, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
