Police in the northern English city of Rotherham struggled to hold back a group of far-right activists on Sunday, who broke into a hotel believed to be housing asylum seekers.
The disturbance is the latest in a series of violent protests by anti-immigration groups in British towns and cities this week after three girls were killed in a knife attack in Southport in northwest England on Monday.
Footage aired on British TV showed officers with shields targeted by a barrage of projectiles outside the Holiday Inn Express hotel in Rotherham, near Sheffield.
A few minutes later, the protesters can be seen storming the building and removing chairs from inside to use as weapons.
A small fire was also visible while windows in the hotel were smashed.
At least one officer was injured in the confrontation.
Lock them up, throw away the keys. You cannot reason with nazis.
We have some lovely concentration camps in Rwanda, already paid for. I hear it’s totally safe over there. Maybe we could use them?
That is an excellent idea! And after making their time ask them politely if they would prefer to live in Russia since they like fascist regimes.
Wasn’t it Hitler that said “be brutal, close your eyes to pity”?
