Acoording to BBC News: UK’s PM Keir Starmer condemns “far-right thuggery” on UK streets and says those involved “will regret it”.

His comments follow violence in several cities on Saturday and further unrest on Sunday.

Earlier, a crowd chanting “get them out” smashed windows at the Holiday Inn Express hotel in Rotherham and started a fire.

Police officers with riot shields surrounded the building and tried to push people back – and extinguished the fire.

More than 140 people have been arrested in relation to disorder since Saturday night.

There are also demonstrations in Bolton, Hull, Southport and Middlesbrough, where the crowd broke through a police line.

Protests organised by the far-right started across the country after the fatal stabbing of three young girls in Southport on Monday.
