The Tories left the UK with the conditions for these riots to take place.
They enabled far-right lies and de-humanising language.

Its one of my favorite songs from this 80s/90s Madchester band.

Campanula Rotundifolia (Harebell)
The Harebell is a resilient plant found in the periglacial areas of the UK and the northern Rocky Mountains. Its bell-shaped flowers add a touch of beauty to the harsh landscapes.
As glaciers retreat, the Harebell's habitat is altered, affecting its growth and survival.
I'd be interested to know at what point the uses the powers contained within - the legal threshold has been exceeded and then some, but very little willingness is being shown to use the broader powers available, given the circumstances.
GOS UK Statement on the recent spate of far right racist violence across the UK:
The far right, emboldened and enabled by political leaders such as Nigel Farage, are currently engaged in a wave of misinformation-driven violence that is in danger of engulfing the UK. See it for what it is - extremist thugs manipulating the totally unrelated murders of children to further their fascism.
They are using the tools of right wing social media outlets to organise and spread their misinformation and hate via the usual suspects - Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins, Andrew Tate, Elon Musk etc.
How can we fight back
One way to effectively fight back is to support groups like Hope Not Hate and their Hold On To Hope campaign: where you can sign up to lend support, keep abreast of developments and donate if you are able to.
If it is safe for you to do so, another way is to talk positively about multiculturalism on your social media presences and challenge the prejudices you encounter. This country was literally built by thousands of years of multiculturalism with hands and minds from many places and of many colours creating the very best of it. We must never let the far right deny that reality or allow their misinformation to gain a foothold.
EDIT: Here is a list of UK wide anti-racism protests being held this coming weekend:

Normally the comments section of The Register is reasonably intelligent. Now it seems some racists and people who don't object to the recent far right riots have sneaked in, some of them seem to be implying that the riots weren't as bad as protests against fossil fuels:-
