REVERBERATIONS from 9/11 are still "being felt with undiminished intensity", East Ham MP and Treasury Secretary Stephen Timms has proclaimed.

"For us in the UK, serious questions have been renewed by the July 7 bombings, the Lansdown Road, Forest Gate, police raid in my own constituency and the alleged airline plot uncovered in the summer," added Mr Timms. He was speaking during the Race Convention, a major European conference to mark the 30th anniversary of the Commission for Racial Equality.

The politician was at Westminster's Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre to introduce 'Divided we fall; Americans in the aftermath', a documentary which charts the divisive impact of 9/11 on American society.

The documentary follows Valerie Kaur, a Sikh American college student who, after hearing of the unprovoked murder of a family friend in 2001, set out to reveal and confront the forces that divided America in time of crisis. [Link]
