From what I've heard in the last minutes on BBC, it seems like the rioting youts are not as active tonight. Anyone got a different perspective? It's about midnight there, correct?
Just heard a news person say that London is quiet, due to large police presence.
Manchester is getting hit hard. From BBC tweet.
Manchester's chief constable, Gary Shewan, says his officers are "gaining control" of the city centre, "street by street" to "flush out" the rioters.
He added: "We have been shocked by the level of violence we have seen this evening. The level of violence has taken us all by surprise."
