Task 5


The radio extract is about the riots in Notting Hill. the radio presenter calls the black people coloured. and says that 'inter-breeding' is one of britianns biggest problems, almost calling the black people animals that shouldn't be allowed to breed with white people.During the interview they also said that immigration was a major contirbuting factor to the riots and that they hope to put an end to immigtraiton, as they believd that it would stop the problem. The radio Presenter also tries to blame the jamaican people for the riot.

 The riot is thought to have started on Friday 29 August when a gang of white youths attacked a Swedish woman, Majbritt Morrison. The youths had seen her the previous night arguing with her Jamaican husband Raymond at Latimer Road tube station. They had shouted racial insults at him and were incensed when she turned on them. Seeing her the next night, the same youths pelted her with bottles, stones and wood and struck her in the back with an iron bar, until the police intervened and she was escorted home.
