Active civil servant: name withheld The MJ's coverage of the riots across England has been first class, and the magazine should be commended for its authoritative, yet balanced, reporting of such a difficult and complicated set of issues. In particular, the magazine's swift reporting of Haringey LBC leader Claire Kober's sensible and non-inflammatory comments during the period of civil disturbances helped to portray local government as a rational voice, while the often-irrational national media is fixated with swift, unhelpful 'solutions' such as putting the armed forces on the streets.
