The wave of violent unrest and disorder across parts of the UK continued on Monday night as police came under attack in Belfast, Darlington and Plymouth.
Six people were arrested in Plymouth while several officers suffered minor injuries in the violence, Devon and Cornwall Police said.
In South Belfast, riot officers had stones and petrol bombs thrown at them in an area close to a supermarket which was set on fire at the weekend.
Earlier, a vigil was held for the victims of a mass stabbing in Southport last week which sparked the unrest. Nearly 400 people have been arrested since the rioting began.
" a vigil was held for the victims of a mass stabbing in Southport last week which sparked the unrest" - just to be clear the stabbing sparked the unrest, not the vigil. BBC reporting just gets worse and worse.
It was neither the stabbing nor the vigil.
It’s uneducated white thugs who have been told for years that immigrants and Muslims are the reason they’re struggling.
They also keep branding it ‘far-right’ but it’s never explained how they know it.
Perhaps the racist chanting and the nazi salutes have something to do with it. Who knows!
People were doing this same nonsense about the Canadian trucker convoy. “The media is calling them far right but there’s no sign of it!” Yeah, except for all the shit that comes out of their stupid mouths.
You want the BBC to explain why they call fascists right wing?

Cool, but none of this is mentioned in the BBC article and my comment was a respones to one saying BBC reporting is getting worse.
Allright, my bad! :-)
Not sure about the state of BBC’s reporting, I was more concerned about the causes of this situation, trying to find reliable information…
