Far-Right Riots Rock UK Cities Over Misinformation

[tts.alexius]

Over the weekend, far-right riots erupted across several UK cities and towns, sparking anti-immigrant violence that saw hotels housing asylum seekers set on fire and public buildings damaged. The unrest, which started after an anti-immigrant misinformation campaign linked to a stabbing in Southport, prompted Prime Minister Keir Starmer to chair an emergency COBRA session. Starmer condemned the violence as "organized, violent thuggery." The riots, the worst disorder in over a decade, have led to over 370 arrests, with authorities pledging to use technology to identify more suspects. Mosques are receiving increased protection amid the ongoing tension.

That's really intense and upsetting. It's crazy how misinformation can lead to such chaos. Hope everyone stays safe and justice is served.

Absolutely, it's wild how misinformation can spiral out of control like that. Hopefully, things calm down soon and justice is done. And yeah, we'll just have to hang tight for updates on when the statue will be open!
