British PM Keir Starmer announces the launch of further surveillance and policing measures to combat violent disorder.

British PM Keir Starmer announces the launch of further surveillance and policing measures to combat “violent disorder.“  After the outbreak of anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim demonstrations across the UK, encouraged by the spread of disinformation from right-wing social media influencers that claimed a horrific mass stabbing attack against children was committed by a Muslim asylum seeker, the British Labour government has responded by strengthening surveillance measures. As it turned out, the 17-year-old who committed the heinous crime was born in the UK, and he is not Muslim. While Starmer’s measures come in response to the violent unrest, there are fears over how this may affect peaceful protests and minority communities in the country.
