Rioters jailed for years just days after violent disorder in Liverpool and Southport

Three men sentenced to jail for violent riots in Southport and Liverpool following a mass stabbing incident. The riots caused significant damage, injuries, and chaos in the area. The men were involved in throwing missiles, damaging property, and using violence towards police officers. The riots were racially motivated and sparked by misinformation. Over 400 arrests have been made in connection with the riots across various UK cities. The men received jail terms ranging from 20 months to three years for their actions. The judge described the incidents as “lawless public disorder” and condemned the behaviour that hijacked the community’s grief.
