London: The UK government warned Sunday that violent disorder would "not be tolerated" after police made dozens of arrests at far-right rallies following clashes between protesters and officers.
Unrest linked to disinformation about a mass stabbing that killed three young girls last week spread to multiple towns and cities Saturday as anti-immigration demonstrators faced off against counter-protesters.
About 90 people were arrested after skirmishes broke out in numerous English cities, including Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol, Blackpool and Hull, as well as Belfast in Northern Ireland.
In some instances, rioters threw bricks, bottles and flares at police -- injuring several officers -- looted and burnt shots, while demonstrators were also heard shouting anti-Islamic slurs.
The government's policing minister, Diana Johnson, told BBC News that the rioting would "not be tolerated", and that there would be "penalties and consequences" for the disorder.
