Fagin sent them on the rob...In a conversation as long as an encyclopedia, no one seems to have questioned why 7 year olds were wondering around a borderline locked down city on their own anyway...?

Drop the shovel and step away from the hole! A bunch of pissed adults derisively tossing coins on the ground for kids to pick up for pure entertainment? Drawing parallels with some obscure Scottish wedding tradition that I'm sure you've never witnessed...makes no sense.It reminds me of a game we used to play as kids called Scramble. Isn't it also a Scottish tradition that the groom throws coins for kids?
There's a picture on the internet of those kids in Lille when the coins had stopped being tossed. Their swag bag ended up with a couple of pounds in weight of coins. Kids must have had a good day. I think people are trying to find offence in something for the sake of it.
Who said they're alone? Even if they were that makes them vulnerable children, not just regular children. Are you suggesting that it's their fault? That's exactly like saying a woman wearing a short skirt deserves to be assaultedIn a conversation as long as an encyclopedia, no one seems to have questioned why 7 year olds were wondering around a borderline locked down city on their own anyway...?

Well actually, it was published in BuzzFeed not FT. How's your respect for BuzzFeed for journalistic integrity?
The actual tweet has loads of people calling him out as a liar and he doesn't once try to defend himself. He's been getting shamed with comments like you stood there and watched it without intervening, and you watched it but took a picture after the event.
His claim stinks of bullshit.
Does look like they wrecked the town though...England fans in Doncaster yesterday, they were not tear gassed or charged down

Yeah, well, you know. Doncaster is in England. England have different norms, laws, ordinances and police forces to those in Europe. What you do in England you can't necessarily do elsewhere.England fans in Doncaster yesterday, they were not tear gassed or charged down

No trouble now then. Let's hope it's all finished

& that ridiculous comment gets 2 'winners' ..
Absolutely astonishing & very troubling the number of people here either directly or tacitly defending the indefensible on the last few pages
Really? Them pesky white missionaries have a lot to answer to...An extreme example is missionaries taking "the word of god" to the dark continent. Bringing light & salvation. But they brought slavery, and laws meant to hold them back, and a flag for them to die for. Let them serve us in this life so in the next they might be born again by christ.
Eh?! Not sure how you could have read "he's blaming the kids" from what I wrote. This has all clearly touched a nerve, sorry.
As I wrote in a post, I`ve always felt almost warmly welcome in England. The most polite people in Europe. Almost too polite. "Thank you, please, excuse me, please, please, please" in every sentence, but that`s nice. When I see many english abroad I sometimes wonder what kind of english who enjoys traveling (in Europe). And honsestly, I would be ashamed and embarassed if I was english when I see those and read about how they behave.
To be honest, I dislike and almost literally hate this provocative singing/chanting and general monkey mentality more than I dislike real hooligan fighting in some backstreets. The latter is actually better, cause you`re not provoking and involving everyone if you do it that way.
I`ve seen some statements which maintain that the english have behaved well for 16 years now. No, not true. I`ve seen an english documentary film about the english behaviour in Germany in 2006. Not much of real fighting maybe, but a lot of provocative behavior. Stealing other nations flags, racist chants (you know- the one about the turks), thowing chairs etc etc.
That`s the worst. This monkey tribe behavior. I agree with Lineker: An embarassment.
The russian thugs are extremely voilent and terrible, yes. But, many english supportes are not tough enough to fight, but tough enough when it comes to throwing bottles and chanting shit when they have 100 persons surrounding them. Silly!
Don`t do it if you don`t mean it.
NB! It`s not Europe that have to adapt to and understand english supporters. It is english supporters who got to adapt to, respect and understand the country they are going to!
Eee. Did I misenterpret your post? I'm really genuinely sorry if so Was a very poor response on my part in that case. Sorry mateEh?! Not sure how you could have read "he's blaming the kids" from what I wrote. This has all clearly touched a nerve, sorry.

When they convinced the Egyptians to use slave labour to create the pyramids was ok though...
