I was caught up in the Brixton riots (not rioting but an innocent person) and I can tell you the Police were very, very proactive with full length riot shields and horses. When I saw the footage last night of Police in the riot areas, they stood there almost passively. A completely different picture from the 80s with the Brixton riots. Give Police back their powers and give them back now! |
