Speaking at a Downing Street press conference, the Prime Minister condemned the 'mindless minority' who have delivered nights of chaos since Monday's tragedy.
Sir Keir Starmer today announced plans to treat rioters like football hooligans in the wake of violence on Britain's streets following the Southport knife attack.
Police chiefs will also be encouraged to restrict the movement of known agitators in a similar way to how football banning orders are used to stop hooligans attending games. According to No10, this will bring together the best policing capabilities from across the country to share intelligence on the activity of violent groups so officers can swiftly intervene to arrest them.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said: 'Communities have a right to feel safe without deliberate organised violence or thuggery in our streets. 'We look forward to working with Government and receiving more details on the creation of a National Violent Disorder Programme and further work on tools such as live facial recognition.'
'Make no mistake, whether it's in Southport, London or Hartlepool these people are showing our country exactly who they are,' the PM added. Sir Keir said 'nobody but nobody' involved in rioting should 'pretend they are speaking' for the grieving families. 'I would personally like to see more use of those orders in the same way that they're used in football hooligan cases to stop people travelling, identify and prevent their patterns of behaviour, because these are not people going to protest,' he added.
'There is also a responsibility that goes with it. That's a space for a mature conversation to take place.' The PM summoned police chiefs to No10 after thugs again took to the streets in London, Hartlepool and Manchester 'So, this Government will make sure you have got the powers you need and will back you in using those powers.'
Scotland Yard's Deputy Commissioner Dame Lynne Owens, Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist, National Crime Agency chief Robert Jones and chief constables from Merseyside and West Yorkshire Police all attended the No 10 meeting. One man wore a shirt with the slogan: 'Nigel Farage for Prime Minister, Tommy Robinson for Home Secretary'.
