Unrest in Southampton following the death of Henry Nowak leads the Prime Minister to call for "serious work, not rage" at PMQs. We examine accusations of two-tier policing and discuss police guidance on race with Matthew Ryder, former lawyer for the family of Stephen Lawrence. Also on The World at One, we hear from Russia as a large-scale drone strike hits targets in St Petersburg on the opening day of its flagship Economic Forum, and we take part in a live studio workout with Ele Breitmeyer as a Harvard study suggests weight training can help extend your life.
