Taylor Swift Dance Party Killings BRITAIN ERUPTS

After days of violence across the UK in the wake of the shocking stabbing attack at a dance party which left three girls dead, British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer warned rioters they would "face the full force of the law" in an address on August 4.

"This is not protest," Starmer said. "It is organised, violent thuggery and it has no place on our streets, or online." Dozens of police officers have been injured in the clashes as far-right activists took to the streets in numerous cities, targetting mosques, Muslim communities and housing for asylum seekers after misinformation was circulated that the attacker was an "illegal immigrant". By August 5, many business owners shut up shop in an effort to avoid the chaos as rioters looted and smashed windows.
