The majority of people charged over last week’s riots live locally to the violent demonstrations which they allegedly joined, analysis by the Telegraph has found.
Seven in 10 of those charged so far live within a five-mile radius of where they are alleged to have taken part in riots, according to court documents and police forces.
Analysis of the data contradicts suggestions from the Prime Minister that rioters were coming from out of town on “trains and buses” to cause chaos in a “community that is not their own”.
On Monday, demonstrations entered their seventh day with mass gatherings in Plymouth, Birmingham, Belfast and Darlington.
Throughout the past week, there have also been protests in Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Belfast, Stoke-on-Trent, Hull, Bristol, Southport and Rotherham.
The violence came in the wake of a knife attack which left three young girls dead and others injured in Southport last Monday.
Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, who has his 18th birthday on Wednesday, has been charged with three counts of murder and 10 counts of attempted murder.
In the disorder that followed the Southport killings, more than 420 people have been arrested, police officers have been injured, and mosques have been targeted.
For its analysis, the Telegraph looked at 65 charged suspects whose fixed addresses were given in court.
Worth reading in full.
Stop Press: According to a new YouGov poll, one in three Britons support the anti-immigration protests that have swept the U.K. over the last week and one in 14 are actually sympathetic towards the rioters and believe the unrest is “completely justified”. The Mail has more.

Yes there is a God.
His pappy – either Castro or Pierre – were both Communist tyrants (in different ways). Apples and trees.
Truck Fudeau. Totalitarian Rona fascist, a drama teacher, a guy who ran from the Freedom convoy pleading he was ill with the fake Rona, a corrupt grafter, open borders fanatic, queer tranny lover, anti-Catholic who presided over the destruction of 100 churches thanks to his fake news claims that ‘Residential schools’ murdered ‘Indians’.
In 8 years he deconstructed what was once a great nation.
You mean a corrupt grifter, obviously. There’s nothing graft about Trudeau.
National Holiday for Canada:
Trudeau Geau Day
One of the most vile neoliberal specimens. Worse than Macron, Milliband, Sarkozy. In the same rank as Blair and Ardern. Starmer is more of a mulfunctioning puppet. He stayed too late after the coach went home. I would imagine that in the future Trudeau will have more serious things to cry about. You can feel where things are going and so can he.
Surely MALfunctioning puppet, he is a walking disaster area?
Two dreadful Justin’s gone in one day yay
.
How 2TK must be quivering with fear over a revenge attack from the Donald ….. bring it on.
Justin time? Well done to Donald Trump for the steep sanctions threat against Justin’s Canada and for describing Justin as the ‘Governor’ of Canada – to be America’s 51st State. Hopefully Greenland will be 52nd.
I remember he ordered mounted policemen to ride over some disbaled woman. If you are capable of things like that then you have openly betrayed your own humanity. Like Jesus said, depart from me I never knew you.
Anyone who might do such a thing must be an awful and cowardly bully.
Isn’t that how Justin behaved during his 9 years in office?
Leave him alone in a bar with a few dozen of those Truck Drivers he tried to ruin…..no time limit and no repercussions.
Can we have a camera in there so we can watch?
Cue for the establishment to rally and bestow on him one of those ridiculous awards (a knighthood perhaps) for his service to world government during covid. Or perhaps he’ll be given a position in some globalist organisation. These scoundrels will do something to protect one of their own. Watch for it. It’s coming.
Nay, bloody hell Stewart, “scoundrel,” I think that’s a bit limp. Not the way I would refer to that genocidal maniac.
Tears of a clown.
Tears of a clown.
Whenever Canada is mentioned, I think of this man here: Polish Pastor Chases Cops Out of Church on Easter Weekend: ‘Get Out! You Nazis!’
If he runs to the WEF then I do so hope that the whole lot of them hang together.
Macron is the last of the lockdown fanatics still in power. I’m not sure if lockdown in France was more severe or longer than elsewhere but the restrictions on the unvaccinated were some of the harshest in the World as the things Macron said about the unvaccinated were among the worse things any leader said.
Good, but sadly 5 years too late for the Canadian people (the real ones, not the recent imports).
Still …. I expect Schwab will find a cosy “globalist” role for Mr Blackface.
The Government must call an election by October 2025. This fake resignation leaves Trudeau in power until the party chooses a new leader. He has also prorogued Parliament until the end of March thus preventing the house from voting on a non confidence vote he would lose triggering an election. So this fake resignation will leave Trudeau in power for many months during which he will feed his corrupt friends and globalist elite and fake charities billions more of Canada’s tax dollars. A word of advice NEVER elect a pathological NARCISSIST with a famous last name to power. The destruction he has caused in Canada is just unbelievable.
Strange, the approval rating looks like Starmer too!
Good riddance to Trudeau. As for Pierre Poilievre, I’ll reserve judgement on if he is a wunderkind depending on how much interest he takes in reversing the M.A.I.D. laws which are legally targeting the most vulnerable Canadians for state facilitated killing.
Astonishing. Justice at last for the courageous Canadian Freedom Convoy, which inspired so many others in the nations of the West.
But since he’s not actually clearing off until next autumn, there’s still plenty of time for him to wreak havoc.
