The wave of violence and riots in Britain is not stopping. Due to this, many cities there have been affected. This unrest has erupted mainly due to anti-immigrant protests by right-wing groups. In the past days, there have been large-scale riots in 9 cities like Liverpool, Hull, Bristol, Leeds, and Manchester, where protesters have damaged public property and clashed with the police.
Where did the violence start in Britain?
Let us tell you that this violence started after the murder of three girls in Southport, which created outrage among the people. In fact, on July 29, three innocent girls were stabbed to death during a dance party in Southport, after which a 17-year-old boy was arrested in this case. It was told that a knife was also recovered from him. After this arrest, someone spread the rumor on social media that the boy belonged to Islam.
After this rumor, the residents of Britain got angry and started attacking the refugees living there. The protesters threw stones at the hotels built for the refugees, looted shops and set fire at many places. The police have taken strict action to control this situation and so far more than 100 people have been arrested. However, in all this, stones have also been pelted over the police and many policemen have also been injured.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has expressed concern by focusing his attention on this violence. He has also said that those who are participating in the riots will have to face serious consequences. Officials have been instructed to take strict action against the extremists. Home Minister Yvette Cooper has also warned that such criminal acts will not be tolerated and the accused will be given severe punishment.
The situation in Britain is very tense at this time. The security situation has deteriorated in many areas due to clashes between the police and the protesters. The government has given more powers to the police to control the violence, so that they can take action without any hesitation.
