99 per cent of London is not burning. We should not over-react to the weekend’s riots
Travers, T.
(2011).
99 per cent of London is not burning. We should not over-react to the weekend’s riots.
Saturday and Sunday saw large scale rioting in Tottenham as well as in other parts of the capital. Tony Travers argues that while these riots have been damaging in specific areas, if things remain calm, there is no need for over-reaction, or even for senior politicians to return from their summer holidays. It is for the Metropolitan police to deal with, and they must now tread very carefully and ensure they communicate very openly and closely with local communities.
