anti-immigration violence fueled by right-wing activists has escalated in the UK for the past week the riots are some of the worst the country has seen in years and the new government is struggling to quell the unrest it all began when three children were killed in a stabbing attack by a 17-year-old in Southport soon after rumors began circulating on social media that the suspect was an asylum Seeker or a Muslim immigrant in reality the suspect was born in Wales hundreds of protesters believed to be supporters of a farri group began attack attacking local mosques and their rots soon spread to other towns and cities we’ve seen Muslim communities targeted attacks on mosques other minority communities singled out Nazi salutes in the street I won’t shy away from calling it what it is farri thuggery agitators are exploiting long-simmering tensions over immigration and the growing number of migrants who have entered the country illegally by crossing the English Channel
