Sir Keir Starmer will chair his third emergency meeting in a week this afternoon with law enforcement officials, following unrest in England and Northern Ireland.
Thousands of police officers were on standby as more than 100 events were expected last night, with 30 counter-demonstrations planned. The Prime Minister intends to "reflect on last night" and plan for the coming days. He says the justice system is "working speedily" to deal with people involved in the disorder and sentencings are sending a "powerful message".
”Sir Keir said Wednesday night’s events turned out “much better than was expected”, and suggested the additional deployment of police officers and the quick sentencing of people involved in disorder were the reasons riots did not materialise.“We were able to demonstrate the criminal justice system working speedily, so yesterday we saw the sentencing of individuals who had been involved in disorder days ago, some of them getting sentences as long as three years.
