This video depicts a spontaneous London street debate about the riots that gripped the city last week. The producers, [FlipLifeTV](http://www.youtube.com/user/FlipLifeTV?ref=opendemocracy.net), explain:

*This began when we started filming \[a man called\] Swiss in Clapham \[south London\] to hear his views on the riots that have been happening in the UK. We ended up in a debate with members of the community that raised many issues that the media are currently failing to portray. It went on for quite a long time and we actually filmed until our battery died but please take the time to watch this video and take on board the important issues that are discussed...*
