A police car has been flipped on to its side as unrest and disorder broke out in Leeds.
Crowds of hundreds of people have gathered in the Harehills area, with police saying they are dealing with an "ongoing situation" that appears to have seen at least one fire lit and riot police later on the scene.
Councillor Salma Arif asked people to stay at home amid what officers described as "pockets of disorder".
Livestream footage on social media appeared to show vehicles on fire, including a bus.

“It could be people protesting their replacement.”
I suspect that native Brits aren’t too hot on becoming slaves to their new, recently immigrated, ruling class.
They are also learning the hard way that nearly every ‘conspiracy theory’ that the ‘far-right’ puts out is eventually proven to be true.

A year and a half ago, but just convicted…
A trainee nurse has been found guilty of attempting to launch an ISIS-inspired suicide attack using a homemade bomb on the hospital where he worked.
Mohammad Sohail Farooq, 28, was arrested outside St James's Hospital in Leeds with a viable bomb, manufactured from a pressure cooker containing 9.9kg of low explosive, in January 2023.

We hear all the time about how tough those Brit soccer fans are in a scrum but they roll over and play dead when their cities are attacked and thrashed. They deserve the chains that will soon bind then to Allah.

Sounds like a traditional English name. Probably dates back to the Norman Conquest.

What kind of article writing is this? Too timid to say what the disorder is about and what the beefs of the two sides are?
Out of control price increases on Chocolate Digestives and Jammy Dodgers?
It used to be easy peasy lemon squeezy to settle British disagreements. Not any longer.
