Can Starmer repair the UK’s social fabric? | James O’Brien on LBC
Following the gathering of hundreds of anti-migrant protestors outside the Bell Hotel in Epping and with the government raising ‘real concerns’ about a potential repeat of last year’s riots, James O’Brien asks – can the government repair the UK’s social fabric?
Sir Keir Starmer has reportedly demanded urgent action from his cabinet in a bid to avoid a repeat of the far-right riots that gripped the UK last summer.
The PM is said to have told ministers Britain’s “social fabric” must be repaired and integration must be improved in areas with high immigrant populations.
It comes following a week of anti-migrant protests outside a hotel in Epping that, while mostly peaceful, ultimately descended into violence.
Deputy PM Angela Rayner told ministers immigration was having a “profound impact on society” and said the government must address the “real concerns” of those voicing concerns over high levels of migration, the Times reports.
