Underlying the Riots
Rioters from what has been contemptuously dismissed as a 'feral underclass' have become instant 'folk devils', a judgement evoking wider 'moral panic'.

The relationship between psychiatric ill health and the reporting of menstrual distress, measured by a modified version of the Moos Menstrual Distress Questionnaire (MMDQ), was then examined for three phases of the menstrual cycle--the premenstruum, the menstrual flow and the remainder of the …
