British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said a "standing army" of specialist police would be set up to deal with rioting.

Starmer blamed the violence on misinformation spread on social media that sparked outrage over a stabbing that left three young girls dead and others wounded at a Taylor Swift -themed dance event in the town of Southport .

The teen has been charged with three counts of murder and 10 counts of attempted murder.
