Far right and counter-protesters turn out at demonstrations across UK | LBC

Police prepare for a ‘weekend of disorder’ as the far-right are told to ‘target mosques’ in at least eight UK towns and cities.

Posters shared on social media - including the encrypted messaging app Telegram - have called for ‘patriots’ to take action, the Times reports.

Other posters carried the phrase ‘enough is enough’, which was used during violent disorder earlier this week.

According to The Times, events are being planned in Manchester, Liverpool, Nottingham, Leeds, Newcastle, Middlesborough, Belfast, Bristol, and Hull.

Some far-right activists have even encouraged attendees to meet outside mosques.

A mosque in Southport was attacked on Tuesday night in violent disorder which erupted following the fatal stabbing of three young girls at a Taylor Swift dance class.

Social media was rife with rumours about the suspect’s age, religion, and identity, with claiming he was a Muslim with a fake name.

Yesterday, the judge revealed the identity of the 17-year-old suspect, Axel Rudakubana, who was born in Cardiff to Rwandan parents.

Remember those "fiery but mostly peaceful protests" ? Apparently its OK when certain people do it.

[anon_ymous]

LBC spreading misinformation as always.

[dillon]

young girls need to feel safe, not muslim men.

[Benjio]

First thing to get said? ''Far right''. The media should be ashamed.

[tetsou]

Calling everyone far right isn't going to work anymore.

[sabinahusain]

Blaming the poorest, most desperate immigrants, fleeing wars Tony Blair funded and created out of lies, instead of blaming the government who created all these problems by cutting public services is the issue needing to be addressed

[pagesofDawn]

It will be a week tomorrow and these poor girls and their families have been forgotten.
Their grief overtaken by these actions supposedly in their daughters names, haven’t they lost enough?

[beastmaster]

LBC you are the only thing people are tired of and disgusted about

[TheDarrenChannel]

You dont need to shout louder, you need to listen harder.

[Huncholini]

Axel was a christian teenager. Wheres the energy for the churches?

[benstern]

There is a complete difference between people protesting and the thugs destroying the place

[alifenameddave]

Speak for yourself, you certainly don't speak for me. The demonstrations are the symptom of an underlying cause which is not being addressed

[fintamaria]

Frustration. Suffering. Hatred, Appears When a society suffers from several years of inequality in all its forms, the economy only works for some and the majority are left behind, equal opportunities in education. It only takes a spark for this hatred to escalate into a disaster😢

[gw]

Do these throbbers in the media get paid for every use of the term 'far right'?

[TheRamblingsofBry]

When the boats stop, the protests will stop. People have had enough now.

[madness]

You are far left and talk nonsense.
Get over yourself

[Patrick-xh]

i'm not against the protests but i'm against the violence.

[aloknath]

Why did the boy who killed the 3 girls actually do what he did? What was in his mind. Unless these questions were honestly answered, the fears will continue to flame the hate and violence.

[JonnyRecaps]

Yes, let's make sure they're not frightened while they're weilding sharp, shiny weapons. You need a steady hand with that sort of work. This is insanity.

I got sick of listening to LBC las Wednesday, whèn reporting on Hugh Edwards, the femalè reporter said the most serious offence was a category A film hecreceived "starred" a 7 year old boy. Really? a 7 year old boy being abused in a film was sfarring in it?
