Tens of thousands of protesters spilt out onto the streets of major UK towns and cities last night in a stunning rejection of a week of far-right riots.
Since the fatal stabbing of three young girls in Southport, anti-Muslim extremists and fascist groups have unleashed mayhem on the streets.
Yesterday evening was set to be among the most violent yet, with 6,000 officers bracing themselves for 100 race riots and 39 attacks against immigration services coordinated across a shadow network of Telegram groups.
Yet instead, officers were greeted by regular people shouting ‘hate not welcome’ and holding signs up high reading ‘refugees welcome here’ in London, Birmingham and more.
It comes as more than 400 people have been put in cuffs for their alleged role in the rallies, with about 140 charged.
And it seems hooligans are next on the government’s radar. Football violence has long overlapped with nationalist movements, and officials are now looking to ban rioters from matches.
