Courts minister Heidi Alexander has told Sky News an extra 567 prison places have been made available to house anyone convicted of rioting.

She said anyone who took part in violence over the last few days can "rest assured that there will be a prison place waiting for them if they are convicted".

Ms Alexander also dismissed claims from the X owner, Elon Musk, that "civil war is inevitable" in the UK.

She said social media companies have a "moral responsibility" to take action against anyone using the platform to incite hatred or violence.
