UK - London riots - Wall of positive messages from community in Peckham

People in Peckham, South London place positive messages about love of their community onto a boarded up window of a Poundland shop following the riots. In a week where mobs smashed and looted shops all over the capital, this is a sign of people reacting to send a message to those involved that they stand together with other communities against the unrest. Post-it notes are stuck to this impromptu wall, organised by a few local young people.
