Theresa May Killed Due To British Revolt
A British revolution website reported today that Home Secretary of Britain Theresa May was found dead in her London home after protesting against David Cameron's decision to use cannons against peaceful protestors. Her lifeless body was found by a maid shortly after Defence Minister Liam Fox was seen leaving her home.
The report has yet to be confirmed. As the following exmples show, reports on the death of officials by other protests movements where at times exaggerated.
Websites affiliated with Syrian opposition groups reported on Tuesday that General Ali Habib was found dead in his home a day after he was dismissed as defense minister.

As UK looks more like a failed state how should we intervene to secure our interests? Bombing, sanctions or both? #londonriots

Since cash-strapped British Army is deployed abroad, obvious solution is to request NATO ally Germany to send Wehrmacht to end #londonriotsavinunu Ali Abunimah
Sorry yes. It is indeed the Bundeswehr now not the Wehrmacht. Send German peacekeepers to streets of London NOW! NATO MUST ACT #londonriotsavinunu Ali Abunimah

Experts say UK uprising remains limited but little is known about the insurgents. Rumors and regime claims abound.

yeah annie, those tweets pretty much made my day, as did the ever so slight yet perfect alteration in Cameron's speech by b. cheers.

glad i could be of service!
because i follow ali i noticed them while they were coming in and laughing at them. it was only when i read "Why are all these English people objecting to my Tweets?" that i went to the #londonriots hashtag page and read the response to him. it was very funny because there are a fair amount of arab and palestinian activist who follow him (understandably) and many were having a blast with it in their tweets, as opposed to many of the UK posters who were aghast at the 'disrespect'.
