Refusing to effectively police areas like Haringey due to fear of backlash is not progressive. It's endangering children in minority areas. They should not need to fear for their lives. The state has a responsibility to keep the lives of all of its citizens safe.
Obviously youth services and other such things continue to be important but they are not enough. The violence and slaughter of innocents has to be stopped as it creates an environment that harms the future of even the children that learn to carefully navigate it.
If people get offended by being stopped then tough. As I’ve said I would rather them be offended and alive.
