Deputy Assistant Commissioner Stephen Kavanagh confirmed officers were looking
at the website as part of investigations into widespread looting and rioting.
Acting Commissioner Tim Godwin pledged a robust response to some of the ”pure
criminality” seen in recent days.
Amid speculation that police could have done more to contain the eruption of
trouble, Mr Godwin said he was immensely proud to be a Scotland Yard officer.
He went on to praise the ”sheer bravery” of officers who were injured during
the clashes.
Police patrols will be stepped up again tonight with many officers voluntarily
abandoning scheduled leave, Mr Kavanagh said.
