Liverpool looks like a war zone…. UK courts working 24/7 to convict rioters

by

The Telegraph newspaper reported Saturday that UK courts will operate for 24 hours to expedite prosecutions of those involved in a number of riots that have ravaged several UK cities. This measure follows urgent meetings between senior ministers and judiciary members aimed at promptly addressing the violence through severe legal ramifications.

In a statement on the riots seen across the UK, Prime Minister Kier Starmer said on August 1, “Let me be clear: the tiny, mindless minority in our society who provoked violent disorder on our streets will be made to face the full force of the law.”
