UK riots 'revealed a deeply unhealthy society' says Prime Minister Keir Starmer
During a press conference at London's Downing Street, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer says that the recent riots "didn't happen in a vacuum" but that they "revealed a deeply unhealthy society", which has been "weakened by a decade of division and decline."
The UK riots that began on 30 July following the fatal stabbing of three young girls have reignited the debate over the violent threat the far-right movement poses towards vulnerable communities such as migrants and Muslims.
A wave of misinformation and rumours spread on social media in the wake of the knife attack led to vandalism against British mosques and Muslim graveyards.
