UK Riots Police Braces For Violence Amid Reports of 30+ Far-Right Protests Tonight Sources
Today, we're diving into the escalating situation in the UK as police brace for potential violence amid reports of over 30 planned far-right protests. This comes in the wake of recent riots that have sparked nationwide concern.
Background
The unrest began following a tragic incident in Southport, where three young girls were killed in a knife attack. This tragedy was wrongly linked to an Islamist migrant, leading to a surge of false narratives and heightened tensions across the country. The situation has now spiraled into what authorities describe as one of the worst outbreaks of violence in over a decade.
Police Preparedness
The Metropolitan Police are on high alert, deploying around 6,000 officers nationwide to manage the anticipated protests. Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Valentine stated, “This is a national critical incident, and we will do everything in our power to protect London and its communities.” The police are prepared to use every tactic available to prevent further disorder, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of hate-fueled violence.
Government Response
Prime Minister Keir Starmer has assured the public that they will be safe, while also warning that those involved in the riots will face swift legal consequences. Following an emergency Cobra meeting, he announced that over 400 arrests have already been made, with many individuals facing serious charges. Starmer emphasized, “If you provoke violent disorder on our streets or online, you will face the full force of the law.”
Community Impact
The far-right protests are reportedly targeting immigration law firms and support services, with lists of potential targets circulating on social media. This has led many organizations to close their doors for safety. London Mayor Sadiq Khan has urged communities to check on their friends from minority backgrounds, highlighting the fear and intimidation felt by many during this turbulent time.

Dima and I went to his dugout for two days. During that time we had time to prepare planks from dead wood, install a new stove in the shelter, make the doors to the bathhouse, and haul stones in there. Enjoy watching everyone!
