Typical Gillingham (of the Medway variety) - an ultra-modern revamp of the train station isn't even finished yet and already someone's smashed one of the windows into a fractal spiral (and they probably don't even know what fractals are!!!). How did civilisation attain the heights it has achieved when meatheads are so prevalent?  Maybe those with higher intelligence use the grunts for the more menial tasks to reach these peaks - Aldous Huxley's alphas and betas controlling the deltas and epsilons - but it's hardly conducive to cohesive society, witness the summer riots.  Common humanity suggests that, no matter the political regime, those inclined to torture and brutality will always find a way to channel their desires, legally or illegally.
Or the window could have been cracked by a careless workman...
