Aug 11: Katja Hoyer, fallout from England race riots.
Manage episode 433674231 series 2342620
The race riots in England have abated after strong action by the new Labour government of Keir Starmer took action against far-right demonstrators/rioters. Some arrested, charged, tried and convicted within 6 days last week. While the violence may have abated, it would be foolhardy to assume the anger against migrants, Britain's refugee and immigration policies has disappeared. So, what now? What next? Are the rioters themselves surprised at the level of participatory support they received?
Also of concern, as reported by Global News today, is the growing anti-tourist sentiment appearing in Europe. Perhaps in Canada as well. Some has to do with short term rentals cutting into possible long-term rental housing.
Guest: Katja Hoyer, Anglo/German historian and professor at Kings College, London. Author of Beyond The Wall: A History of East Germany. - Originator of the Zeitgeist blog.
