Keir Starmer on Thursday announced a new ‘national violent disorder unit’ in a crackdown on rioters after the Southport stabbings.
The Prime Minister called the Southport attack that left three girls dead “so inexplicably vile that fear is an understandable reaction”.
But he condemned rioters who have since taken to the streets across the country.
Starmer hit out at the “tiny mindless minority” who have become violent over the past two nights, branding them “a gang of thugs”.
