Socialist Alternative - Why London is burning

Socialist Alternative - Why London is burning: "he following statement, which Socialist Alternative fully endorses, was put out by the UK Socialist Workers Party in response to the riots that have swept the UK over the past 3 days.

The riots that swept large parts of London, Birmingham, Liverpool and Bristol last night are an explosion of bitterness and rage.

This is what happens in a society of deep and growing inequality, where there are great pools of unemployment and poverty, where there is systematic police harassment and racism, and where many young people feel they have no future."
