The Register says much the same thing again as it said before "It might be a test of ministerial mettle if thousands of British Muslims were burning cars every night, as has happened in France. But what we seem to have here is some foreigners burning just one car and failing to burn two more owing to almost unbelievable incompetence. The mindset of a man who's willing to set himself on fire to make a point - as one of the Glasgow terror-clowns seems to have done - but not to spend any effort at all on researching methods is a difficult one to understand. Even if these jokers were illiterate or had no internet access (seems unlikely, [more than] one of the suspects is apparently a doctor) they could have at least done a test. In my part of town, fun-loving teenagers burn out a car or two down by the canal every week or so: nobody would notice another one with some nails in it."

I'm a bit surprised that some of these people were allegedly medical doctors, as the whole matter seems to have been totally stupid. Admittedly GPs are sometimes incompetent drunks, but this business goes almost beyond belief and one can only imagine that the NHS has become - in parts - totally incompetent or totally desperate for anyone who will claim to be a doctor.

IMO: One such bad apple in the NHS at one time would be a pity. Several bad apples like this, is quite surprising and leads one to suspect that there could be some ulterior criminal motives for these strange goings-on by the authorities - or some of them.
