It did not look like a tiny minority to me,but even if it was ,it should not have happen.

It was inevitable, I don't now why you are surprised. There are always some who will take the opportunity for mischief - and the police really should have been better prepared given the strength of their intell.

Compared with about 250,000 it was a tiny majority of the mindless scum.

Fortnums - a group of us used to walk round to look(only) at things each year when we visited the Summer Exhibition at the R.A.
One year a member of our group who had recently become a bee-keeper, told one of the assistants in charge of his department that his 'honey had gone off' !! in some of the jars !!
Oh dear...

It seems in attacking the posh peoples' store the idiots chose the wrong target. Fortnum and Mason is ultimately owned by the Garfield Weston Foundation, a registered charity that donated £40 million last year, including several millions to cancer research.

I remember the old joke about the 'Lady' who shopped in the Queen's grocers for 1/2lb tomatoes, when asking the price they replied £4.00, she said 'Here's a fiver,Young Man', keep the change as I trod on a grape whilst browsing'
