The Telegraph’s live newsfeed reports that rioting has spread to “Birmingham, West Bromwich, Manchester, Wolverhampton and Salford.”

And here’s audio of two drunk female rioters describing the “good times” they had burning things and drinking stolen wine. “It’s the government’s fault!” “Yeah, conservatives.” It’s hard for me to tell if this is real, or a parody of mindless British underclass hooligans.

Now some videos from the riots. Cheerful looters hauling away goods:
