I utterly condemn the far-right thuggery we've seen this weekend being no doubt those that have participated in this violence will face the full force of the law the police will be making arrests individuals will be held on remand charges will follow and convictions will follow I guarantee you will regret taking part part in this disorder whether directly or those whipping up this action online and then running away themselves this is not protest it is organized violent thuggery and it has no place on our streets or online right now there are attacks happening on a hotel in rotheram marauding gangs intent on lawbreaking or worse Windows smashed fire set a blaze residents and staff in absolute fear there is no justification none for taking this action and all right-minded people should be condemning this sort of violence people in this country have a right to be safe and yet we've seen Muslim communities targeted attacks on mosques other minority communities singled out Nazi salutes in the street attacks on the police W and violence alongside racist rhetoric so no I won't shy away from calling it what it is far right thuggery to those who feel targeted because of the color of your skin or your faith I know how frightening this must be I want you to know that this violent mob do not represent our country and we will bring them to justice our police deserve our support as they tackle any and all violent disorder that flares up whatever the apparent cause or motiv motivation we make no distinction crime is crime and this government will tackle it thank you
