I share the concerns over disorder in the UK. This criminal behaviour by mindless thugs is being met with the full force of the law.
Attacks on places & people because of religion or ethnicity do not represent our π¬π§ values. Malaysian visitors remain warmly welcome in the UK.
This is not protest, it is pure violence.
We will have a standing army of public duty officers.
We will ramp up criminal justice.
We will apply criminal law online as well as offline.
We will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on Muslim communities.

Criminal violence and thuggery on our streets will not be tolerated.
Police forces have my full support in ensuring that those who engage in criminal disorder face the strongest possible penalties.
