Researchers question unrest being far-right protests and say disorder had more in common with 1950s race riots
The riots that swept the UK last summer had more in common with race riots in the 1950s in Nottingham and Notting Hill, west London, than they did with disorder that broke out in 2011, academic researchers have found.
Violence first erupted on the streets of Southport after the murder of three young girls, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, and Bebe King, six, at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in the Merseyside town. The perpetrator, Axel Rudakubana, was later jailed for a minimum of 52 years.
