I got a plaintive email earlier today from Tony Lee, the manager of the Oxfam Music and Audio shop in Ealing that was looted last week. Another Oxfam shop was damaged in the riots – a brick was thrown through a window of one of the shops in Manchester – but this was the only one to be looted, presumably because it sells CDs and DVDs. There’s an Oxfam Book shop on the same street in Ealing and, needless to say, it was completely untouched.
The whole post is a worthy read, and the shop is worthy of any support UK readers may be able to offer.
