New Socialist, Nov 1985 (32) pp13-15

Condemns the British police as racist and describes the creation
of a Black `under class' by the systematic destruction of housing
and job opportunities by the current government. Also attacks the
press and other media for their biased reporting of events in
Tottenham, Handsworth and elsewhere. Argues that the riots in
these areas were not racially motivated but akin to the uprisings
of the unemployed in London a century ago.
