London rejects racists with show of unity ...The Standard podcast

The Met police chief, Sir Mark Rowley, has praised the “show of force and unity from communities” that defeated the threat from far-right troublemakers yesterday, after thousands of anti-racism protesters lined streets of the capital.
Our Crime Correspondent, Anthony France, explains what exactly happened, how racist thugs are being fast-tracked through our justice system, and discusses whether this could be the beginning of the end of the riots.
In part two, as Justin Timberlake kicks off the UK leg of his world tour, The Standard’s Emma Loffhagen analyses where it all went wrong for the star and how he went from pop's golden boy to DWI drama.

It's as if the grooming gangs never happened

[codesouls]

why cant london also reject child stabbings and murders?

[nearing_the_end]

Not a British flag in sight just shows their loyalty.

[captaintorch]

Great. All immigrants, both legal and illegal, should be housed in London. Then Parliament can be relocated to Carlisle or York. The ideal solution.

[cherylwortley]

It's only because London is already a foreign city, believe me, people think differently in the rest of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[shellsbignumber]

And a Labour councillor inciting murder.

[robertwaye]

7 out of 10 people in London weren’t born in the U.K so don’t you think there would be any difference really.

[dawnpiper]

I am not a racist or far right and do not agree with violence i do howev disagree with hundreds of thousands of people coming into Britain when British government cannot afford it nor can it help its own people it is just madness

[friendlyadvice]

Anybody holding one of those insufferable "Refugees are Welcome" signs should be made to house at least 5 illegal immigrants. Additionally, pay for ALL of their expenses.

[krishath]

Refugees..come here?? But away from their houses..at someone else expenses.

[Dairy]

While embracing anti Semitism agahahahhaaa. The lack of self awareness is astonishing

[jimduncan]

It's easy to protest when you are backed and praised by the media, government and police. Very stunning and brave.

[Kiki-ywkc]

All sitting in their mortgaged homes with two cars in the driveway . Immigrants having no effect whatsoever on their middle class lives ? It’s the local homeless and those waiting on social housing or living in a council estate, that is who is suffering.

[rememberme]

Far left fascist racists against racism? Make it make sense.

[odenoki]

'Paradox of Tolerance'. Tolerant societies eventually get consumed by the intolerant. In order to maintain a tolerant society, we must reserve the right to be intolerant of the intolerant

[odenoki]

Enjoy your virtue. Your kids and grandkids will reap what you've sown.

[GeneralMilosivic-dbio]

So they won on Wednesday night protesting against nobody but somehow their leader threatened to kill any opponent protesting.. ooh how peaceful they are

[karenrobinson]

I wonder what would happen if the DWP stopped all their benefits and the people supporting them were made pay at least double tax to provide for them.

[PrinceZ]

Didn’t they attack police? Call for murder?

[kate]

It's heartwarming to see that these people are offering their homes to unvetted, young men, to live with their family, children, wife, teenagers.... So heartwarming!! 🙄
