British riots show importance of managing migration

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has rightly promised to jail the anti-immigration rioters who have attacked police and damaged property, just as he helped to do as head of the Crown Prosecution Service when protests after the police shooting of a black drug dealer turned violent back in 2011.

The Starmer government is also canvassing a crackdown on social media platforms that helped fuel the riots rocking cities across England. The riots follow far-right activists spreading online misinformation about the stabbing to death of three children by an underage offender from a migrant background in the northern town of Southport.
