A new poll reveals that one in three Brits support the anti-immigrant protests that have swept the UK over the past week.
‘Far-right mobs’ have caused chaos across the country—looting shops, setting fire to hotels, and clashing with police in some of the worst unrest in over a decade.
The Director of Public Prosecutions confirmed that at least one of the 100 charged so far is being investigated under terrorism laws.
The YouGov poll also shows that one in 14 Britons sympathise with the rioters and believe the unrest is “completely justified.”
A quarter of those surveyed blame Muslims for the riots, while over a third say they are not responsible at all. About a third point fingers at Sir Keir’s Labour government, and 38% also blame former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.
Kevin O’Sullivan speaks with political and social commentator, James Melville.
