Statement on the disorder in Tamworth



Alan White, Leader of Staffordshire County Council, today condemned the violence at the Tamworth hotel:

 

“The targeted attack on the hotel housing asylum seekers in Tamworth and on police attending the scene, is both shameful and deplorable.

 

“Violence of this kind has no place in this county or this country and will be rightly condemned by the vast majority.

 

“I would like to thank the emergency services for their response yesterday and I am pleased that the rioters were dispersed and peace was restored to the community.

 

“I would encourage people to remain calm today to allow the police to bring these criminals to justice.”
