More protests have been planned for the coming days over the Southport stabbing attacks, including one targeting a mosque. Meanwhile, Nigel Farage has hit out at Sir Keir Starmer, accusing the prime minister of not having 'an earthly clue' of how to deal with the disorder.
Misinformation promoting rallies is spreading mainly through Telegram before being shared to X to gain a bigger audience, says data and forensics correspondent Tom Cheshire.Telegram, in particular, has low moderating standards - meaning 'anything goes', says Cheshire.'A lot of this chat around it is clearly racist.
'This includes posters that appear to be made by concerned locals, but in fact all come from the same groups, Cheshire explained.They are talking about tactics online, too, as well as about selling flares and fireworks to demonstrators.'It seems like they are really gearing up for this.
