Rejected petition To deploy a water cannons as a deterrent to disperse violent riots in London boroughs.
Rejected on
I believe that stronger measures should be used, tradition a-side, to prevent large congregations causing destruction in our capital city.
It's a disgrace and sets a poor precedent towards the Olympics that these sort of people are fearless in destroying others property, businesses and livelihood.
We need a stronger deterrent to increase the power authorities have in dispersing these groups and putting an end to the current riots that are rife in London
