British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said rioters in the UK will face "the full force of the law" as he chairs another Cobra emergency meeting this evening in the UK. The meeting comes as a list of 30 targets - including immigration centres, lawyers' offices and charities were shared online by far-right groups alongside flame emojis and calls to mask up. 

The large scale riots have seen the arrest of almost 400 people, which has prompted the Ministry of Justice to increase the country's prison capacity. Raheel Mohammed, Director Maslaha, UK charity says the response is refusing to look at the problem of structural racism square on, and claims the issue won't be solved by over-policing. Mohammed told RN Breakfast "there was a wall of people protecting the mosques and it wasn't the police."
