Violent Disorder

Proceeding contribution from Yvette Cooper (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 September 2024. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Violent Disorder.

I certainly think that we should have honest and practical debates about issues, rather than debates that end up being lost in rhetoric, and often lose sight of the facts and practical issues. Some of what we saw was extremism, as well as local criminals and thugs. Some people who had a violent history of crime in the local area also got involved. To deal with the disorder, we have to deal with all the different aspects and origins of it.
