00:00I know that the public will be feeling anxious about the reports of potential more unrest tonight
00:06but the police will be there to respond to any violent and criminality that we see on our streets.
00:12There's no place for that on our UK streets and the police will do their job like they have done
00:18exceptionally well under very difficult circumstances.
00:20Coming on the streets, throwing missiles at the police, attacking police,
00:24attacking hotels like this one I'm here today is not a legitimate grievance.
00:28It's not the way we do politics in this country and nobody should be condoning that.
00:34This is thuggery, this is violence.
00:36Someone could have got seriously injured over the last couple of days and it's no excuse for that.
