It was August in 2011 when riots broke out in the UK. They started
in London and then spread to provincial cities including
Wolverhampton. I was sitting in a garden outside a working men's
club when someone asked for an explanation of what had gone wrong.
I had been following the situation closely right from the inception
and I gave my views and explanations of what had gone wrong, and
how it could be solved in the long run. I never could see any short
term solutions. When I had finished, everyone agreed with me; with
the proviso that "they would never take notice of what I had to
say". It is not very often that people will agree with everything I
say. The next morning I got up early as usual and started to write
this book. I was not put off by "never take any notice"; if it
needed to be written down I would write it. Although it would upset
many, I knew that it reflected what normal working class people had
to say.I estimated that it would take me a year, and it was exactly
two years before I had a first draft. By now of course I have
included many other topics which were not concerned with the riots,
and the number of people who disagree with what I have to say will
have increased. But the aim of this book is make people think about
alternatives to society's taboos whatever they may be.
