Post-Traumatic Stress - A Special on the London Riots, Ten Years On

It's exactly ten years since a Black man called Mark Duggan was shot dead by police in north London, setting off five days of rioting and looting across the capital and beyond. So what happened then and what has changed in police-community relations in the last ten years? Dr Matteo Tiratelli, lecturer at the Social Research Institute at UCL tells Bloomberg Westminster's Caroline Hepker and Roger Hearing many of the issues that set off the protests have not been addressed, and it could happen again. Croydon was one of the focuses of the riots, but Gifty Nmaju of Croydon Black and Minority Ethnic Forum says police-community relations have improved there, and, while much of the anger that fueled 2011 remains, there are better ways of dealing with it now.
