That community copper sounded like a genuine person who cares, thats why he feels confident to walk the streets, because he knows his heart is clean...

[@minifini6991]

Police don't want to patrol the streets anymore,prefer to be warm and safe investigating a corpse for rape and pedophilia

[@daisychain3007]

@@minifini6991 You do not want another riot, do you?

[@CARLIN4737]

Community policing was a very good policy but before and after the Shooting of Cherry Groce the police had no credibility and were totally untrustworthy. SUS laws and later the PACE act of law that gave officers any number of reasons to stop and search and are still misused today.

@@daisychain3007 riots are the going thing these days. People smashing up innocent local businesses, personal property; their own communities. Gone are the days when the men of England marched to the wealthy and burned their records along the way - those were clever people with an understandable agenda behind them, being freedom and equality for all men. They generally didn't attack the innocent or destroy innocent local businesses. Riots now are simply pent up, misdirected aggression. People making their own areas more impoverished and scarred

i lived and was up in Brixton, upper Tulse Hill and later Streatham. I was around and see both riots in 1981 and the far worse one in my opinion in 1985. My brother was caught up in the 1985 riot and went with his pal into Brixton police station for thee own protection as it was chaos. The buses were just left in the streets and cars were getting torched. I had to go and get my little brother i was only about 13 my brother 11. Scruffy white kids from housing estates just like the black kids. These were not race riots as wrongly seen by the younger generation now. These were anti establishment riots against the police who were hated in Brixton and other London boroughs like Tottenham and Peckham. As well as the youth both black and white in Liverpool, Bristol and other inner city areas.

Never be better place in the world than Brixton in the 70s... .. my youth

Seriously it was a slum,but at least it wasn`t full of black knife gangs and religious cranks and mincing hipsters like it is now.

Parts of Mayall road shown too, blimey to think that the houses there are now worth over a million pounds, over 35 years later.

@@CARLIN4737 I think you are referring to Railton Road not Mayall Road.

A parking space in Vauxhall is worth a million pounds? Whats your point?

One year on? 21st November is only seven and a half months from 11th April. Bit of a stretch to call that a year. (I say 21st November because that was the Saturday before the 25th which is the date at the start of the video).

Artistic licence from the producers and reporter maybe but as you say no knowhere near a year on.

London is not the only city that had riots or race riots other UK cities like Birmingham Manchester Liverpool are highly segregated and racist then even today those cities are riddled with racism .

You're right. As a white man there are many places in London I can't go...
