Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg is meeting with community leaders in Tottenham to try to assess the devastating impact riots and looting had on the area.

The Lib Dem leader held a private meeting on the situation in Haringey three weeks on from the disorder which began in the heart of Tottenham and spread to the rest of the country.

He visited the area two days after the first outbreak of violence, and is sitting down now with some of the business owners and residents who were badly affected.

Among them is jeweller Steve Moore, who he met on August 8 after his shop was destroyed in the riots.
