The Places Where They Didn't Riot

[poliphilo]

I'm curious about the parts of the country that didn't riot. As far as I'm aware, there was no serious trouble in the North East, nor in any northern city apart from Manchester and Leeds, nor in any Welsh or Scottish city.

Does this tell us anything?

That could be a factor. The Scots (perhaps) have less reason to hate their government.

It doesn't explain the Geordies, though.
