Book description
An urgent, insider account of power, racism and reform at the heart of British policing. In Turmoil, Neil Basu, the first person of colour to serve as Assistant Commissioner in the Met, offers an unflinching look at the structural racism embedded in the UK's justice system. From the aftermath of Stephen Lawrence's murder to the London riots, Basu was there for the defining moments of modern policing, and now he's telling the truth from the inside. With clarity, courage and compassion, Basu holds a mirror up to British policing, examining how racism, political interference and systemic injustice have shaped the force from within. This is a powerful contribution to Britain's ongoing conversation on race, power and the state. Turmoil is essential reading for anyone interested in the realities of institutional racism and social justice in the UK, offering a vital new perspective on how we can move towards true accountability. Together, these insights form a compelling case for change, and act as a timely reminder that the work belongs to all of us.
