DAVID Cameron today praised Liverpool’s public spirit in coming together to clean up after the riots.

The Prime Minister was visiting Daresbury Science campus in Cheshire which the government has made into an enterprise zone - a move that could create 1,000 jobs.

"I am pleased to be here after a week in which people have been tragically tearing down our country," he said. It’s great to come here to see how pople are building and creating for the future.

He also welcomed hefty sentences that the courts have handed to rioters and those that incited riots.

"It’s right for courts to hand out sentences that they see as appropriate.

"I think it is excellent that courts are handing down stiff sentences.

"It was heartening to see in Liverpool people come out to clear up after a bunch of thugs did so much damage."
