	Description:		After a week of violent riots around the country, what has it been like for some of those on the receiving end of the disorder? Over the weekend, an angry mob terrorised Middlesbrough. Businesses were forced to board up their shops as cars were set alight and missiles chucked at the police - 35 arrests were made in what the police called staggering levels of violence. Today's Emma Barnett speaks to Aneeqa and Kashif, who have both been targeted by the rioters, and Anne, who is concerned about the future for her grandchildren. Listen to the Today programme on Radio 4 and BBC Sounds: 6-9am Monday-Friday; and 7-9am on Saturdays.
