Another said the odd confrontation was a poor example of a fight. 

They said: ‘Nothing to see here but standard expressive dance by the ladies.’ 

Another commented that the scenes of bedlam were more like something you might see at an American Black Friday shopping event.   

They joked: ‘Folks in London putting on their best impressions of Black Friday in Florida.’ 

Another said that given the cheap nature of the paper it was probably a bargain worth taking. 

They joked: ‘Yeah, but that 99p Xmas wrapping paper is worth battering someone for though.’
