With the summer recess, when theoretically politics take a break, it’s been three weeks since the last instalment of Wales on Wednesday. What a turbulent few weeks it’s been. We’ve seen shocking scenes as race riots raged up and down the UK, with several attempted pogroms taking place.

Hundreds have been arrested and many sent to prison so far for their parts in these shameful episodes. People have received significant custodial sentences for racial hatred, looting Shoezone and other shops, assaulting police officers, attacking members of the public, and inciting racial hatred online.
