James O'Brien highlights the hypocrisy of right-wing media blaming Keir Starmer for the riots, having given so much 'airtime' to figures like Nigel Farage, Katie Hopkins, and 'Tommy 10 names'.
The Prime Minister has vowed that those taking part in "far-right thuggery" will "regret taking part" and has promised to crack down on the wave of riots which have gripped Britain.
"Be in no doubt: those who have participated in this violence will face the full force of the law.
"The police will be making arrests. Individuals will be held on remand. Charges will follow. And convictions will follow," he added.
However, Starmer has been criticised for 'not clamping down' on the far-right enough, as violent scenes continue to escalate across the UK.
