Keir Starmer Calls Emergency Meeting Following UK Anti-Immigration Riots

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has called an emergency security meeting following violent anti-immigrant protests across the country. Violence erupted as a result of an online misinformation campaign since an attack a week ago left three young girls dead as the far right falsely claimed the suspect was a Muslim migrant to stoke anti-immigrant and Islamophobic sentiment. Bloomberg's Rosalind Mathieson reports.

Native Europeans have the right to exist and have a homeland to call their own

[FlorinSutu]

Salad of words: "anti-racist", "anti-fascist", "far-right".

[markbartlett]

But isn't the root of the problem illegal entry into these countries and their leaders refusing to address the problem? Where is that in her comments. If the problem didn't exist people could not be fooled so easily. Fix illegal migration, rather than disparaging your own citizens

The use of the term "far right" is used over and over... yet never against the most extreme far right patriarchy in Europe at present which is >>> Islam. The murderer in this case was the son of African migrants.

[alirezakarimi]

Where did you get the word extreme right, they have the right to defend their land. Do not change the places of the accused and the victim.

[michaelc]

Keir Starmer failed to prosecute Jimmy Saville because he didn't want to jeopardise his own knighthood

[banesbox]

“Far Right”?

You mean regular people?

[cparsons]

Like if you stopped listening and scrolled down to see everyone disagree with the "news"😆

[dukenukem]

it's sickening what is happening to britain and other western europe nations

[Whoami]

What are they on about! The protests were mostly peaceful!

[daffyddduck]

Calling working men who sit at home far Right , who are worried about migration, illegal or otherwise, worrying about our children, our families our girls is a hate crime Mr Starmer and you should resign over your insinuations, worst Pm ever so far, I hope all the elderly keep warm this winter too

[Dularr]

I though the problem is immigration centers being filled without warning? With towns being changed overnight.

[boringlyawesum]

lets hope eastern europe never gets as bad as western europe

[daffyddduck]

Have the Far Left got a mention by Starmer

[arfifteen]

The victims names were out right away. The murderer's name was withheld for too long. Almost like intentionally delayed to allow for speculations to brew.

[finn]

Probably it's time to rethink some immigration laws

[ruthjames]

The problem was caused by people not being informed. Therefore people came to their own conclusions.

[crippinite]

Ya I think far and wide we're done with "this" stuff being shoved in our faces.

[zachariahbarber]

Last time you didnt listen to your citizens America was born.
