In England's county Merseyside, the atmosphere was strained after the murder of three young women at a dance party themed after the popular American singer Taylor Swift. Since July 31, several cities in Britain have been engulfed in riots. The juvenile accused of killing at the dance party is currently in police custody, identified as Axel Muganwa Rudakubana.

The identity of the accused, who is in police custody, had earlier been met with controversy as he was being described as a Muslim. Britain's right-wing leaders are leading the pack in the violence that has broken out across Britain. PM Keir Starmer has instructed the police to deal strictly with such demonstrators.

Demonstrations that started against the killing of girls have taken a violent turn and taken the form of anti-displaced and anti-Muslim. Descending into violence, mosques and hotels sheltering migrants were vandalized and set on fire. The police have to work hard to stop the people who have resorted to violence on the roads of different cities of the country.

Keir Starmer's tough stance

Soon after the outbreak of violence, British Prime Minister Keir Starr met the police chief on August 1 last and instructed to crack down on violent and extremist elements. Giving permission to the police to work with a free hand, the PM also said, "We have our full support to the police to correct the anarchy that has been seen in the country.

Within weeks of coming to power, Keir Starr faced the murders of three young women and the riots that followed. Experts believe that the extreme right wing and their opponents are trying to take advantage of this opportunity. After the murder of three young women, fake news and rumors have spread in Britain. Based on this, anti-refugee and anti-Muslim elements became active under the guise of violence and started targeting minorities across Britain.  

Kiir's message to migrants

In statements on Friday and Sunday, British Prime Minister Starmer made it clear that he wanted tougher action against the rioters. He sent a message to Muslim and immigrant victims of violence, “To those who have been targeted because of their color or their religion, I want to tell you that this violent mob does not represent our country. We will bring them justice, I know how scary the atmosphere is in this part.

How did the violence break out?

Violence erupted in Southport, Britain, on Tuesday after rumors spread on social media that the killer of the girls was a radicalized Islamic immigrant. On Wednesday 31 July, thousands of people gathered near the Prime Minister's Downing Street residence in London and began chanting slogans such as 'Save our children', 'We want our country back' and 'Stop the boats' (stop the migrants).

However, the police clarified at the time that the attack had no connection with terrorism and that the suspect was born in Britain. Even after this the violence does not stop. Some groups have also taken to the streets in support of the migrants and clashed with far-right protesters.

The violence was definitely started in the name of killing three girls, but the premise was found to be false. On the other hand, the Prime Minister has clearly said that this is a well-planned conspiracy by the right-wing people.

Cities affected by violence include Liverpool, Hull, Bristol, Leeds, Blackpool, Belfast, Stoke-on-Trent, Nottingham and Manchester, among others.
