Not published yet (12th September) but delighted to finally have a physical copy of this. There was a time when I didn’t think I’d be around to see it. Thanks to all - family, friends, criminologists and oncologists - who helped make it possible

Only caught the end of ‘Policing Protest’ on BBC Radio 4 but there was some tosh being talked about politicians and secret plans. Not sure I can face listening to the remainder

"the eventual end of the 2011 disorder was thought to have been a result of mass policing and tough sentencing by the courts." Er... What about anti-racist protesters Tim Newburn? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Excellent piece by Tim Newburn on the need for a national inquiry to understand not just the reasons for the disorder, but also to inform future policy addressing the root causes.

In 2011, "The communities affected were largely ignored. Almost nothing was done to address the problems the riots so clearly illuminated. We find ourselves in a similar position today" -Prof. Tim Newburn theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

‘Rioting is generally an indicator that all is not well in the body politic. We ignore this at our peril.’ Good piece by ⁦Tim Newburn⁩ challenging lazy narratives & ill-informed assumptions about recent events. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

In the aftermath of the UK riots, Prof. Tim Newburn argues we should be looking to understand what caused them & why people chose to get involved. Failing to do so, he says, could prevent us from stopping more from happening in the future. Read more: tinyurl.com/39enjccr

I read @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social' article with great interest and share the concerns. I remain on this platform (just) because there's still a lot of stuff to like. In terms of Musk, I think avoiding Tesla might be more effective than avoiding Twitter/X

Dan Hancox Tim Newburn John Drury We agree there needs to be an urgent review at Govt level looking at causes, triggers & underlying issues with the aim preventing a repeat. The most immediate concern in places like Hull is trying to rebuild confidence in communities affected. Great piece by Tim Newburn

Racism? Poverty, drink & social media? We still don’t know why Britons rioted – and we need answers After all that violence, we face the choice that confronted Cameron & Thatcher: to seek real explanations or move blindly forward theguardian.com/commentisfree/… Tim Newburn on The Guardian
