The riots have gone but the anger remain...

SKY NEWS
About this episode
In Hull, in the aftermath of summer riots that saw an asylum hotel attacked, shops looted, and cars burned, two strong feelings remain. 
 
Resentment over a perceived strain placed on local services by asylum seekers and anger from the feeling that politicians are ignoring their concerns. 
 
On this episode, Niall Paterson is joined by producer Sarah O’Connell, who recently visited Hull to meet residents who witnessed the violence in the city on 3 August. 
 
They discuss how locals feel that they aren’t listened to, and the deprivation that some in the city experience every day. 
 
Producer: Rosie Gillott 
Editor: Paul Stanworth
