The Telegraph news reports say police are braced for many more protests in the UK in at least 30 locations today after more than a week of anti-immigration riots.
There have been several anti-immigration protesters demonstrating across the country. Over the past week, these protests have become unstable, with some demonstrators resorting to violent actions, including setting ablaze hotel buildings where asylum seekers are being housed.
According to the Telegraph newspaper, more than 6,000 specialist riot police are on standby to deal with any outbreaks of violence, today. In the wake of the demonstrations, more than 400 people have already been arrested.
This violence erupted after the killings of three young girls in Southport on July 29. Protesters set ablaze two Holiday Inn hotels, in the town of Rotherham, northern England, and in Tamworth, in the Midlands, central England, that were believed to be housing asylum seekers awaiting a decision on their claims.
