Yea from the drunk prospective, It is not fun when you work as a paramedic or cop dealing with all that.
Ignorance and callousness is very hard to overcome . Stupidity …. almost impossible.
:hehe:
This is an incredibly slanted view. Lets look at the figures.
[quote]Ambulance crews in London had answered 2,333 calls by 4am this morning while the Metropolitan Police said they had made 77 arrests[/quote]
This in a city of 8 million people, and remember these aren’t all to do with being drunk. There were 97 arrests at the Nottinghill carnival.
[quote]However, officers said the crowds were largely good-humoured as an estimated 250,000 people packed The Embankment to watch the fireworks at midnight.[/quote]
So that is 250,000 people in one small area, plus all the people in the 7000 pubs in London, and the all the people in 200+ nightclubs and who knows how many private parties. That is a lot of people out and about in the city.
Yes there are a small number of people who drink too much and act like d icks. But whilst the figures show that, this article, like the rest of the site, is propaganda not news.

Sorry, I always resist correcting people, but the irony of this amused me.
