Interesting exchange in the comments to this post, Lurker points out another attack by the fearsome Men of No Appearance gang.
But wait....I hear a squeaking from the corner. Mr Liberal would like to point out that it's early days and the law restricts what can be said about an ongoing investigation. Yes, indeed. Which is why you never see anything like this, via Rob.

Except when you do obviously. Say, what can be the difference between these two cases?

It looks very much like it'll make legal history, too:
"It is believed this would be the most defendants to be tried jointly over a single murder in Britain."
Cultural enrichment ahoy!
In a more enlightened age (before 1947 or thereabouts) everyone involved would have swung if found guilty. (Depending on age.)
The Beeb's got as far as identifying the arrestees as south Londoners. My money's on Surbiton - sadly altered since the days of the Good Life.
In the 1st instance cited by DJ, the MSM would have quoted the suspect's inside leg measurement if that info was available to them.
In the Victoria Station murder we are left guessing. Well, based upon the lack of info being released we can be certain that the yoofs are not indigeneous whites.
If *any* of the suspects turn out to be white I'll go out and place a bet on Portsmouth to qualify for next season's Champions League.
Let's not place 100% of the blame on the MSM; the modern day police who feed them their cut-'n'-paste press releases are achingly PC. Instead of bragging about things like crime clear-up rates, they seem more bothered about how gay-friendly their Stonewall rating is.
No mention about crime clear-up rates, but stuff about div-ers-ity abounds here:

You may get to see a clueless white girl or two included.
"Well, based upon the lack of info being released we can be certain that the yoofs are not indigeneous whites. "
I think that's a safe bet, if you check out the court sketch...
And I'd be grateful for any suggestion of what the curious gesture made by the victim in the associated 'tribute' photo further down the page means.
Is it some sort of gang sign?
