The Metropolitan Police has said it will use "every power, tactic and tool" to protect London against "one of the worst spates of violent disorder in the last decade".
It follows more than a week of violence in some towns and cities across England and Northern Ireland.
More than 100 people were arrested in central London last week after officers clashed with demonstrators in Whitehall.
Deputy Assistant Commissioner Andy Valentine said the force would "not hesitate to arrest hundreds more" people if further violent disorder took place.
"The scenes of racist, thuggish and criminal behaviour across the country have been deeply shocking," he said.
"They’ve made their intention to cause disruption and division very clear.
"This is a national critical incident and we will do everything in our power to protect London and its communities."
London mayor Sadiq Khan urged people "to check in on" their friends, family, neighbours and colleagues from ethnic minorities.
"Our communities are facing the threat of hatred—including violence—fuelled by insidious racism, prejudice, and Islamophobia," he said in a post on X., external
Mr Valentine said there would be an increased police presence in parts of the capital and anyone involved in violence would "face the full force of the law".
The disorder follows the fatal stabbing of three girls in Southport, with the subsequent unrest partly fuelled by misinformation online, the far right and anti-immigration sentiment.

RE: disorder....
In Chicago in 1968 Mayor Richard Daley said to the press:
The police are not here to create disorder, they are here to preserve disorder.
GO SOCCER HOOLIGANS!
Make Britain Sane Again.
Slaughter satan worshipers.
And while you’re at it, slaughter Labor pols.
everything EXCEPT, prosecute the muslimes...
On Monday, Nigel Farage claimed that “ever since the soft policing of the Black Lives Matter protests, the impression of two-tier policing has become widespread”.
Hopefully, the citizens will use “every tactic” to regain sovereignty of the UK
FU, Sir Shmarmy
In other words, arrest any Brit who cares about saving his country.
They could bring back internment. It worked so well in Northern Ireland.
humm. i think this so called London ‘met’ police and British leos (wankers) in general have now completely failed the British people, and so have abdicated any legitimate authority as moral institutions they once had, becoming in themselves the actual arms of ‘disorder’ in GB.
sad that it’s come to this for them. but, imho, the citizens of GB now have the right of inherent self-defense to protect themselves from these leo thugs. i pray that God may in His Just Will break all the evil arms of illegitimate gov’t and leos everywhere in the world. in Jesus’ Holy Name i pray. Amen.
They’re going to arrest Tommy Robinson of ‘terrorism’...put the blame all on him because he’s been the only warrior pointing out the cultural civil war that is inevitable.
100%
The owner of the pub was interviewed and quietly described what had happened. She said there had been absolutely no police around but when she was asked who was responsible, she said she wasn’t political.
Lawdhammercy! If the British citizens don’t engage politically and socially and fight back against this tyranny, they deserve the pathetic future they’re going to get.
“ Unrest fueled partly by misinformation”
Like it matters whether the white hating foreigner is first or second generation. Pretty sure the hate white christians and kill their innocent children is sufficient for any and all rage.
England is lost to Islam.
It’s revolutionary.
The scenes of racist, thuggish and criminal behaviour across the country have been deeply shocking
the very comment means we will protect the invaders no need to bring up the murder of children
Does this look suspiciously J6-ish to anyone else...?
Cuz it bloody well does to me.
It’s lost to its Deep State.
The Islamists are just useful idiots.
