Police in the northern English city of Rotherham struggled to hold back a group of far-right activists on Sunday, who broke into a hotel believed to be housing asylum seekers.
The disturbance is the latest in a series of violent protests by anti-immigration groups in British towns and cities this week after three girls were killed in a knife attack in Southport in northwest England on Monday.
Footage aired on British TV showed officers with shields targeted by a barrage of projectiles outside the Holiday Inn Express hotel in Rotherham, near Sheffield.
A few minutes later, the protesters can be seen storming the building and removing chairs from inside to use as weapons.
A small fire was also visible while windows in the hotel were smashed.
At least one officer was injured in the confrontation.
i saw the ppl. kinda the same as we see every summer in spain and so on. fat drunk fucks that act like imperialists, short chubby women super drunk…all pretending england won some titles in football. super cringe to the rest of europe.
to me they look the same but i am sure there are ppl in london being different.
take the euro soccer cup. in germany we celebrated the scots for their culture, humor and being nice ppl all over. made new partnerships with clubs and cities. albania and romania got lots of love because of the players and fans. that NEVER happens when ppl from england are around. anywhere. never.
so i dont know your perception of what ppl think about ppl from england…but trust ne the majority in the EU thinks these rioters represent england very well.
